This is, in my opinion, not only the correct moral/ethical/legal position but also the correct political framing. Everyone can see the agency is out of control; everyone can see that it is constantly violating human rights. "Scrap it and start over" is the moderate position.

When I was in school we’d have posters of Shaq and Vince Carter drinking milk and now it’s like hey want to see this weird looking person who gets paid to make your uncle racist

i'm going to spend the rest of my life figuring out how a small band of elites decided that acting as the global currency and primary military hegemon was gay and feminine coded

“ICE isn’t the Gestapo. The Gestapo was…” (proceeds to describe qualities that apply to what ICE is currently doing)

#spaceship #scifi wip for a commission, a luxury space yacht.

hey, can somebody please tell the dystopian author running the world that their shift is over and they don't get paid for overtime?

A little known fact is when you compliment a writer/artist's work, you're branded like Guts in Berserk, except instead of demons showing up, it's the writer/artist you complimented arriving when you need it most, like Gandalf showing up at the battle of Helm's Deep, fulfilling our oath of gratitude

My mind: Keep working on your comic so it turns out great! My spirit: Make a political post about how ICE and Gen AI operate the same way My heart: If I replaced my arm with two mechanical arms I could pet all my cats at the same time

I wrote some notes on China's Alien Chat case: the case of AI chat developers sentenced to prison for their chatbot's dirty talk- which is currently being appealed. www.chinalawtranslate.com/22286-2/

ST. PAUL MAYOR: “We’ve received reports of ICE officers going door to door asking where the Asian people live… I myself have received advice to carry my passport with me because they may target me based on what I look like.”

new clip art......! THANKS @brushy.bsky.social ur da best

who the fuck are these people talking to you want ME to invoke it?

Here’s a really tense ICE situation in front of my home. One car looped a block 25 times until two reinforcement cars showed up and led me home. Was pretty scary because I was solo - BUT I knew I had backup from thousands of courageous neighbors and observers. Strength in numbers.

Who are you talking to here Big Ed? You want me to do it?

It's a small thing, but it fills me with civic pride to walk through the giant park near my house and see Hmong families having cookouts, Somali parents pushing their laughing kids on the swings. Like, here are people who've endured horrors, and my city has welcomed them in to build peaceful lives.

Arguing with Catholics online is chauvinism but we're not ready for that conversation.

ICE is now bragging about money they stole from Somalis

the europeans Fucked Around (at best quietly sat around during or at worst actively abetted our utterly lawless sponsored genocide in gaza) and now theyre Finding Out (getting the other end of the utterly lawless US stick)

This is not in fact the definition of the “working class.”

Weird criticism to level at a play about a historical time period in which every single female stage role was performed by a person with a penis

He was a Communist, Elmo.

There are anti-ICE signs on every business, every streetlight, every blank wall, in half the windows. Everyone is wearing anti-ICE clothing. No one talks about anything else, at the bus stop, at work, at the bars and restaurants, at the store. Total unity around one idea: ICE OUT NOW

i was also saying this every second they were onscreen

if white deep southerners had the same R-D split as whites in the great liberal bastion of South Dakota the deep south would basically be purple this is not happening because white deep southerners are racist as fuck and nothing short of reconstruction part 3 is going to change that

Gavin Newsom's interview with Ben Shapiro is worse than I even thought it would be. Not even with regard to his opinions, but to his utter fecklessness. What's even the point of some bridge building podcast, if you're just gonna say "I see your point" to everything. he just can't be prez I'm sorry

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

It's a problem that actual elected officials post on social media as if they are powerless observers and commentators.

@vienna_official today we welcome his imperial highness archduke franz ferdinand to sarajevo. unity, stability, progress. @pan_slav_posting wild that austria thinks this is a good idea but ok

German Jews were citizens of Germany at the start of 1933. By the end of 1933, the Nazis had removed citizenship from naturalized citizen Jews. In 1935, all German Jews were fully stripped of their German citizenship. Citizenship under dictatorships is contingent for targeted minorities.

Time to whip out The Quote once again

“I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school. I wish I could bake a cake filled with rainbows and smiles, and everyone would eat and be happy.”

Impossible to describe what a raw nerve the rapid response channels are when you’re NOT on patrol. ICE sighted everywhere, all over the neighborhood. Silence and then swarming. This is not an immigration agency, it is not a law-enforcement agency. It is a state-sponsored terror agency.

jack asked if i would sketch up a poster to tell people in nearby neighborhoods about the partnership between flock and ring, and this is what i came up with. it can be printed on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper.

Legal system makes so much sense that cops have qualified immunity when they murder people, but legislators get charged with crimes for doing their job in a way explicitly protected by the constitution.

With every ICE alert whistle, we're including a free yellow turban!

They're saying a red heaven will rise when the people are free, the time of the yellow heaven is now

it’s just so crazy to see it happen in real time

Live in the meat? Eat the house? Michelle, what the fuck are you talking about?

imagine if it happens on tv
