Federal officers took 11 Democratic officials into custody inside a federal building in Lower Manhattan after the group demanded entry to Immigration and Customs Enforcement holding cells where migrants were being detained.

The case raises a disturbing question: if these deportations weren’t actually requested by the families, what exactly did Trump intend to do with all these children once they were removed from U.S. soil?

Another federal judge has dealt Trump a legal setback, over the government’s treatment of migrant children. The court blocked his administration from quietly flying hundreds of Guatemalan kids out of the country under the pretense of “family reunification.”

"and Magda Goebbells made a great strudel"

We as a country are painfully relearning the lesson the Brits, the French and other Western European countries had to learn in 1939, appeasing fascists not only never works, it only emboldens them.

Reminds me of this quote from Doc Holiday in Tombstone. "A man like Ringo has got a great big hole, right in the middle of him. He can never kill enough, or steal enough, or inflict enough pain to ever fill it"

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Thank you, Representative Robert Garcia! As the ranking Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, he announced plans to open an investigation into both the Trump administration and ABC following the network’s decision (under FCC pressure) to suspend Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show indefinitely.

It's just a reminder that in the regime's view there's no such thing as "one of the good ones." Are you a skilled specialist? Surprise vacation in a cell. Are you going through the proper legal channels? Get snatched right out of the courthouse. Were you actually born here but you're brown? Nope.

S Korean employees at Tennessee GM Ultium factory, making LG batteries for GM electric vehicles, mostly left the USA. They’d used the same visas & waivers that Hyundai employees had in Georgia. Curious if Taiwanese at TSMC chip fab in AZ are making escape plans… www.reuters.com/business/aut...

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

- After the piece ran, that person admitted they weren’t sure about those details. - The Guardian then removed the quotes and added a note explaining the correction.

It's my birthday!! I'm 49 - how did that happen? I would LOVE it if you could share or follow my art for my birthday, that would be a brilliant gift! Thank you everyone who follows and comments, it is such a great place here! 49 feels ace btw. #artshare #birthday #watercolour www.emilyhare.co.uk

I just need to explain for non lawyers: the Trump Regime is indicting a trans lawyer who works on trans issues for a queer org because he is a trans lawyer who works on trans issues for a queer org. If this works? They won't stop with Charles.

The combined cost of Satoshi Kon's work was $7,030,000 ($12.3 million with inflation) Perfect Blue: $830,000 ($1.7 million) Millennium Actress: $1.2 million ($2.2 million) Tokyo Godfathers: $2.4 million ($4.2 million) Paprika: $2.6 million ($4.2 million)

Adjusted for inflation Spirited Away cost $22 million to make. The Triplets of Belleville cost $16.5 million, Cartoon Saloon's Wolfwalkers cost $14.28 million, and Oscar winner Flow cost only $4 million. These critically acclaimed, made by real people films, cost less than this pile of actual vomit.

I despise how hard YouTube actively fucks over its users and creators at every turn. Be sure to check your devices (Yes, plural DEVICE(S), because they’ve made it per device not just account), and make sure this setting is OFF! It’s potentially hiding thousands of videos from you.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Transphobia is a unique sort of bigotry that just absolutely cooks the online brain. Holding it nearly always results in an inability to ever admit you’re wrong about anything and exponentially increases the likelihood of believing in a cascade of ever dumber conspiracies and fascist ideology

Crunch KILLS people, I'm not sure how many times we need to tell companies this. Companies need to be held accountable for these kind of things. www.kiro7.com/news/trendin...

Someone's already gotten started

we did it folks

Warner Bros is suing AI company Midjourney for alleged copyright infringement • The lawsuit cites multiple AI-generated examples of Batman and other iconic characters • WB is seeking $150K per infringed work • They argue generating copyrighted characters is a 'clear draw' for Midjourney users

Transphobes would have a lot less reach on here if everyone stopped arguing with them and quoting their posts to dunk on them, they don't give a rat's ass about your arguments and enjoy wasting your time.

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.

If we lived in a world that made any sense, this would be the definitive end of ChatGPT and everything like it

I got the complaint in the horrific OpenAI self harm case the the NY Times reported today This is way way worse even than the NYT article makes it out to be OpenAI absolutely deserves to be run out of business

any of these billionaires could put a stop to this with their table scraps, but the scumbags won't because they're on the same side as the ones who caused if.

The decision now protects more than 30 cities across the country often called “sanctuary cities” because of their local laws that restrict helping federal immigration agents.

A win! A federal judge has expanded a ruling that stops the Trump administration from cutting off federal money to cities that limit cooperation with immigration enforcement.

and also AUTHORS PLZ CREDIT YOUR COVER DESIGNERS AND/OR ARTISTS!! cuz it’s getting real hard sometimes with genAI to see the slop right away now but having the credits for it would give you MORE credibility! (this is cuz i found out a company i liked that made bad covers now might use AI >:|)

"Good news, we added a new AI featu-" Don't care, didn't ask. Stop adding AI to everything.

Omg!!! #ffxiv #monsterhunter(??)

Welp, guess it's right back to the same old same old. 🥲
