Why snort coke off a toilet seat if there is any other surface available?

How is this real?

maybe my favorite all time correlation

Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

The Columbia Heights school district says ICE detained four of its students, including a 5-year-old boy, as "bait" to draw out family members.

WTF @washingtonpost.com ?

ICE pepper-sprayed this 1-year-old girl. Once at the hospital, the doctor had to call in a poison control specialist. They had never seen anyone that young pepper sprayed. Another horrific story. More details below.

Here's what the third day of elementary school looked like in Mount Pleasant, Washington DC.

Hey @washingtonpost.com‬ , seems like local protest in response to the ICE/CBP/FBI etc. activity in the city is a legit story. Why isn't this anywhere on your landing page?

““The DHS report repeatedly conflates basic protest, organizing, and journalism with terroristic violence, thereby justifying ever more authoritarian measures by law enforcement,””

Yuriana Julia Pelaez Calderon, an organizer with the Los Angeles-based Alliance of Californians for Community Empowerment, was picked up by men in an unmarked car last Wednesday, and nobody knows where she is. She made a phone call late Friday and the information she gave is chilling:

This looks interesting and useful for studies of creative markets.

-93% Wow.

Well duh. www.npr.org/2025/06/02/n...

This is fantastic

RIP American innovation www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

And there’s a term for “unidentified, masked law enforcement”: secret police. The US right now has a secret police arbitrarily arresting people, including opposition politicians and students.

Been reading about the new Led Zeppelin copyright case... Apparently the guy who wrote "Dazed and Confused" before Led Zeppelin covered it also wrote "Be All You Can Be" for the army, and "I'm a Pepper" for Dr. Pepper. #IPLawSky en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jake_Ho...

“Maybe instead of 30 dolls this Christmas, children play with the life-size human figurines they already have,” said the commander-in-chief theonion.com/trump-a...

ICE is now asserting it's a federal crime for bystanders to request that masked people in plain clothes show identification as they're handcuffing folks and stuffing them into unmarked vans.

LOL, badger lickers!

Men in plainclothes, one in a balaclava, raided the Charlottesville courthouse today. They abducted a local painter whose case (allegedly fighting with his roommate) was being dismissed, and another who was there paying fines. They took them away in unmarked vans. dailyprogress.com/news/local/c...

Losing My Religion comes on the radio and my kid says, "Hey, it's this song... 'Let's pee in the corner'. 🎵"

Efficiency? Proposal would force millions to file Social Security claims in person www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

This is why I’m quadrupling down on my internet culture reporting alongside politics. Because even though the country is being toppled, we’ve lost the ability to even tell people that, and we can’t move forward until we get it back

1. I would like a job where I get paid to tear up trucks. 2. "You should not be able to tear up a truck with your bare hands" is a hell of a good point.

This is the first story I have seen about a manufacturer relocating production in response to new US tariffs. Moving production to the US? No.

Old Ox's rye porter was my favorite dark beer. Boo!

I try not to read too much into short run changes to the stock market, but this is a hell of a chart.

Yes. If DHS can barge in, say your visa was revoked, be told you have a green card, say it's revoked too, and then disappear you so that neither your lawyer nor your family can find you, then all the guardrails are gone. There is no policy, practice, or law protecting anyone.

Incredible chart
