It's the future: 2026. Computers sing and make music while humans go to work. Dystopian fiction was not bleak enough to prepare us for this.

It's Mandatory Monday and AI is clearly the future. mandatoryrollercoaster.com/post/8081046...

Stop scrolling. This is a countdown, not a post. Odai is a child losing his chance to walk while you read. A drone injury left him needing urgent surgery, but there is no money yet. Every second matters. Your share or donation could be the step he may never take. Act. tinyurl.com/odai-care

As a child protection professional, I can tell you the death penalty is NOT an awesome solution to child sexual abuse. Most children are abused by family members; they will not report if their family members will die as a result.

Because Massie has taken some reasonable positions on a couple issues lately, that's led people to forget that he's at heart a paranoid John Bircher who's been scanning the horizon for non-existent black helicopters for decades now.

I’ve never met a child that belongs in prison, because all children should be free. Abolish all child cages + jails + prisons (so-called juvenile halls, camps, correctional facilities, detention centers, et al.) They are an expensive stain on our community.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but you really don't need to team up with the Candace Owens fangirl who thinks the Jews killed Jesus

A livestream featuring Nick Fuentes, Andrew Tate, Sneako, and other manosphere influencers praising Hitler shows how misogyny is converging with neo-Nazism in online spaces. As these networks expand, Nazism is normalized, fueling hate and violence against women and other vulnerable communities.

New reporting shows local police are tapping school security cameras and license-plate reader systems to assist federal immigration enforcement, raising serious concerns about student privacy and surveillance. Read more here:

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH

These are going to become the Stolpersteine of the United States.

This is the kind of plan you would develop if you wanted to intentionally kill thousands through neglect and disease. Which, if you know history, was how large proportions of people in concentration camps died The malnutrition and disease killed millions.

THEY ARE BUYING UP WAREHOUSES TO HOLD HUMAN BEINGS IN DETENTION INDEFINITELY. I feel crazy at how everyone is acting like this is normal. These are concentration camps being built right before our eyes. These buildings are not meant to house human beings. People will be caged like cattle and die.

"should the government kidnap 5 year olds and deport them? We asked seventeen ethics professors and they all just screamed"

Concentration camps: “For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick."

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Last night we had 2 ICE agents get out of a car, pepper spray legal observers, shout something to the effect of "I'm fucking ICE motherfucker" and drive away.

Chip Berlet was one of my primary mentors, a delightful human being, and was both insightful and dead accurate. I will miss him deeply.

Sometimes I'll just boo a photo of JD Vance in my free time

Going to tell my children this was horseshoe theory

Wrote my contribution for this site a few years ago, still like it.

Oh no, what a loss for antifascist research. Really regret I never got to meet him. He's a legend and did incredible work.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside. What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there? I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

UPDATE: Students at BYU are also protesting Border Patrol’s presence at a job fair on campus at their university tomorrow.

My actual job description is activist and here’s what I tell people in despair all the time: do not underestimate how much harm you can prevent by being just a little bit annoying.

Kindergarten teacher called a prank ICE hotline thinking it was real. She called to report her 6 year old student to ICE to try to get them and their family deported. 6 years old. She does not enjoy hearing her own words and actions played back to her.

hey remember when I got shit on for years for trying to warn people that GamerGate was just Nazis and not just about harassing women and not just about some “consumer revolt”

as someone who pushes hard against conspiratorial thinking in my professional and political life, it is deeply irritating when, on top of the untold human harms Epstein caused, it turns out he was at the center of at least half a dozen actual conspiracies

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Oh hell no. I'm really going to have to start printing everything I want to read (so AI doesn't keep summarizing it) and writing what I want to write by hand before I type it, aren't I?

When I saw pictures of Liam Ramos with his Spidey backpack and bunny hat, I felt an overwhelming responsibility as someone who works in superhero comics. Please do check out the art in #Comics4Liam and visit comics4liam.com to support Liam and groups helping other immigrants like him. ❤️💪🐇

I cried to see Liam in his little blue hat back home. But please know that there are other young children in immigration concentration camps. He caught our hearts, but he was not the only one. In fact, a ten year old girl from my neighborhood is in Dilley now

Buy the book for $0.00 and leave a five-star review. Excellent way to fuck with Amazon's algorithm. =wide grin=

My cat got a new box and he is very excited about it

ICE just showed up at our house for the second day in a row. Four cars yesterday, today five. They rolled up slow, then got out to taunt us, and take pictures of the house. They want fear to overwhelm us, to project a fantasy of power meant to intimidate, isolate, produce obedience—not happening.

NEW: Liam Conejo Ramos, the 5-year-old who ICE agents in Minneapolis nabbed last week and shipped off to a Texas detention facility with his dad, is now in poor health, his school superintendent told me today www.huffpost.com/entry/liam-c...

Uh. So ICE just technically tried to invade Ecuador. Cool new international incident dropping.

My partner asked about the Q&A and his answer to this question was: “There are about 500 police in Minneapolis and at least 3000 ICE agents in the state. So assume you would see ICE out at least six times as often as you see a police car. That’s what it feels like here.”

I know you know this, but for folks who aren’t here: ICE uses racial profiling and AI tools that “estimate” your chance of citizenship to decide who to detain. They often refuse to accept documentation of someone’s right to be in the U.S.—and may destroy it instead.

I get the impression that a lot of people want to believe that keeping your head down will protect you if you aren’t one of ICE’s targets, but the list of targets is constantly expanding and they’re so reckless in their violence that anyone can get caught in the crosshairs.

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings. This can't be "reformed"

We don't, and we do

Ever notice how the inner voice that says, "We are powerless. This will never work." gets louder when you feel alone? That's because loneliness and isolation amplify despair. Community, partnership, and action are the antidote. Hope is a group project.
