"Has anyone considered that the straight is not actually straight but is curved and that's the real problem?" - NYT Opinion, probably

This looks cool. Wish I could use it in our ds. We have to use versions in our classnames due to federated modules and the possibility that there are multiple versions of the ds around and conflicting. Maybe reconsider jumping into federated modules unless you really need to mmmk.

Always the best

This is exactly how I feel about it. The slow drip and the devaluing of expertise, promoting false expertise in the name of profit and short term thinking.

This is a verified GoFundMe for librarian Luanne James from the Rutherford County Library Alliance. gofund.me/f7704eb98 Read what happened to this hero: www.newschannel5.com/news/rutherf...

This is an absolute scandal; the United States government is deliberately consolidating all deportation cases of an ethnic minority that the President has called "garbage" in front of a handpicked group of judges and with dramatically accelerated timeline. A lawsuit was filed yesterday against it.

What a beautiful technique

a ~6 month old side project I never got around to finishing, seems now I don't need to bsky.app/profile/stur... basewatch.dev

NEW EPISODE TODAY: I think people are sleeping a bit on how bad the last MPD consent decree progress report is… and we dig into that re: the pending re-appointment of the Community Safety Commissioner Here I read some quotes from the MN Dept of Human Rights’ response

NYT: Paula Doress-Worters, an Author of ‘Our Bodies, Ourselves,’ Dies at 87 By Penelope Green She wrote about postpartum depression when it was an unmentionable like abortion or birth control, and her research on her own suffering helped countless women. Gift link!

Ms Rachel talking to Deiver Henao, a 9yo in an immigration detention center www.instagram.com/reel/DVzUzoz... What a world

Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline. I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate. Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.

The marine takes it like a champ. The senator should resign immediately.

Weird how the bros in the company slack aren't interested in posting this like they are about every random AI thing under the sun. Weird.

Don’t worry RFK jr ate two raccoon entrails nearby so it all evens out.

just thinking about how USAID was dismantled under the rationale of cost savings but there's an unlimited budget for war

Please take a few minutes and listen to @lookitup.baby explain what our community needs right now, not later after our neighbors’ families have been evicted. m.youtube.com/live/vpRmCJE...

video taken in downtown minneapolis today of reported bounty hunters PULLING A GUN on someone standing in the road in front of city hall. (business on the van is fake.) hennepin county sheriff’s deputies were right behind and did nothing video by government employee who saw it on their lunch break

"Guys they're putting needles and drugs in the whistles" - The News (def not a cop)

New podcast episode! For my fellow night owls: millcityhall.com/episodes/202... We look over attempts by the city and others to measure the profound impact of the ICE invasion, attempts to provide aid and relief, and an accounting of who is actually helping.

I found the longer speech, the whole speech is so heartfelt inappropriate now as well. youtu.be/HfXmpJRZPYI?...

The various administration reps each putting out a different justification for these attacks certainly make it seem like they’re fishing for the least worst explanation instead of telling the truth.

Next up comboboxes?!

damn this thread is such a trip

My daughter was downplaying her skills and I played this for her. A fitting tribute.

Asking if someone would want to drink tea with Ilhan or booze with Nancy Mace is a pretty good litmus test.

Apparently the streams are being cut as interceptions happen. Speculation that they are being asked to do so by the government. Both Reuters and AFP steams specifically.

video from iceout.org earlier today at the whipple outside minneapolis shows a hennepin county sheriff’s deputy shoving the head of a protestor who was already tackled into the ground we need someone to challenge dawanna witt for sheriff. this brutality happening under her watch is unacceptable

ChatGPT what is a power vacuum (not the crumb collecting kind)?

🫩 Surely violent attacks on their homeland by America & Israel will leave Iran less motivated to develop nuclear weapons...

hey gen z welcome to republican governance

UK Labor gets destroyed by Greens (and Reform) in a member of parliament election, so Labor PM Starmer "[attacks] the Greens as an 'extreme' leftwing equivalent of Reform UK" hahaha the Jacob Frey "don't fight extremism with extremism" line goes global.

Today, I received confirmed reports that agents from ICE and HSI forced entry into a residence on the 5200 block of 36th Ave., kicking in the door and detaining a constituent. Witnesses report that 8–9 masked agents carried out the operation. 🧵

We have a word for this in media history. It's called propaganda.

ssh is an obscure but widely-deployed command. It stands for Secure Snake Home and was made in the 90s to securely play snake online I made a massively multiplayer backend for it with support for thousands of concurrent snake players ssh snakes.run to join!

Let this guide you when you understand why mutual aid is so important but also isn't sufficient.

this one is going to straight up haunt me until it gets funded, not gonna lie

What's old is new again (but now on wifi). Ethernet on library computers, networked printers, etc were physically vulnerable to having their mac addresses snagged and spoofed, bypassing external device registration portals. Seems like the same kind of thing here.

This is horrible. Absolutely ghoulish behavior.

so instead of watching the SotU, a bunch of us spent last night doing silly presentations and raising fifteen thousand dollars (!!!) for a variety of good causes if you'd like to see me rant about star wars in person, I'm at about the 2:15 mark in the video, but the whole thing is phenomenal

Legend!!!!

come hang out im about to talk about my favorite polar maniacs and it's for good causes postersmadness.wordpress.com

Today we are launching a new intitative of Stand With Minnesota—KeepMNHoused.com, a rent-relief campaign backed with a $1.5 matching fund from the Wilson Foundation. Thousands of MN families are at risk of eviction because of the ICE occupation’s lasting impacts. We can keep them housed.

"An Associated Press reporter was beaten by the police and detained along with three other journalists on Tuesday in Cameroon while reporting on a secretive Trump administration program to deport migrants to the Central African country, according to two of the people detained." (gift link)
