There are now five documented cases of screwworm in the U.S., including a dog in New Mexico. It is important to note that the dog that had recently been in Mexico, so this doesn’t imply that screwworm has already spread to NM. But it’s a good reminder that screwworm can infect any mammal.

The Trump administration has cancelled 4,304 deliveries to food banks so far this year, refusing to deliver 94 million pounds of contracted-for food. Food banks simply can’t feed people enough anymore. Millions of Americans are going hungry as a result.

Yesterday, history happened at the UN: For the first time hundreds of orgs signed a global pledge declaring that healthy indoor air is a human right. Healthy indoor air is a key tool for preventing pandemics, building climate resilience, and increasing health equity. We need it everywhere!

Izolde is an awesome part of our local trans community here in SF, and she regularly comes to Trans Nerd Meet Up. If you can spare any $$ to help her stay housed, please help! <3

I missed the anniversary! Read if you haven’t.

The original Jim Crow was a disabled Black performer named Jim Cuff, but his act was quickly appropriated by white performers. So much of American culture at that point was an imitation of England. Minstrelsy was one of the first American things to be exported culturally. Our chief export: racism.

How high on tech bro cocaine do you need to be to say some simple minded shit like this

This will sound silly but I've made an effort for years now not to watch this kind of media or even play games with realistic depictions of carnage. Anything that triggers my real human responses to violence I'm careful not to immerse in, and I think it's helped recover some of what's been lost.

the regime has set its sights on imprisoning 100K undocumented people simultaneously, an arbitrary if purely symbolic chunk of the 11M undocumenteds living here. the private prison industry actually lobbies congress to keep the number of detention spaces required by law high citing profit concerns.

I wrote about what I think is a genuinely revealing document of elite depravity and impunity. It is shocking and sickening. But it's also a crucial moment. We're about to see what happens when conspiracy theorists actually get what they asked for but it turns out not to be what they want.

I wrote this story because the case of the Guatemalan children hasn’t received nearly as much media attention as it deserves. I wanted to highlight the full extent of the government’s depraved conduct. I hope you’ll read and share. Don’t look away. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

Decision effectively allows immigration agents to use racial profiling to detain people, greenlighting sweeping raids.

Jeffrey Epstein had doctors prescribe birth control and sedatives to his victims. They also screened his victims for STDs. He had dentists work on their teeth. I’d like to know who these people are and why they have been protected.

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.

I'm supremely mad and I'm going to rant about it. I have a podcast. It's hosted by ACast. They do dynamic insertion ads prior to the show, which I've enabled. These are basically the commercials you might hear before the show starts.
