Today seems like a good day to prep another order. Also, some of these are just for me. It is, in fact, okay to grade comics solely because you like them

As I awake to the news that America has started 'the Epstein war' by bombing a girls school and killing 63 children (Let's all call it what it really is: Operation Forget-About-Epstein. I'm literally going to be calling this the "Epstein War" for as long as it goes)

New— A Columbia source tells me internally they’ve been told DHS officers presented themselves as “police,” but not NYPD specifically, which has obviously created public confusion. This might be, at least according to this 2020 story, technically allowed: www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2020/...

This is the energy I'm trying to carry into my weekend

A blind refugee who doesn't speak English made a deal for his release to his family but instead was abandoned at a coffee shop five miles from his home by CBP without notifying anyone. His family had to file a missing persons report. He was found dead five days later. Sadistic and evil.

the main outcome of this is gonna be that the public mood will move from wanting Kristi Noem sacked from her job to wanting Kristi Noem burned at the stake as a witch

"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending *** As of the end of January, there have been no convictions."

I am never going to get over the fact thar so many Americans died that corpses stacked up in nursing homes and hospital morgues, that refrigerator trucks had to be brought in for the overflow, and that the big takeaway from Important Pundits is there should have been *less* mitigation.

“I’m going to be an even worse president and it’s because the Supreme Court sucks.”

Now the healing process can begin

News you can use, from the @wired.com security team (who are the best in the biz). They asked technologists, activists, aid groups, and cybersecurity experts for guidance on how to organize and collaborate in an age of surveillance. Here’s the result:

one of those things you need to watch if for no other reason than the trump administration doesn't want you to:

The headline doesn't even begin to describe how wildly unethical the background of this story is, which is that the survivor only shared the story with one person- her psychiatrist- who is Kamel Doud's wife

Here’s an example of a local newsroom actually informing the public about AI (the role of journalism) versus the blatant AI boosterism we’re seeing many other newsrooms engage in to the detriment of the entire profession

idk how to rebuild society for this but i don't think people should be allowed to talk like this without it going very poorly for them

Likely-historic photo by NBC News of all the Epstein victims asked to raise their hands if they've not yet been asked to meet with the DOJ as Bondi testifies in foreground

Ted Lieu: “Were there any underage girls at that party or any party that Trump attended with Epstein” Pam Bondi: “There is no evidence that Trump has committed a crime” Ted Lieu: “I believe you just lied under oath”

Beautiful

just a fucking weird statement on it's face but also highlights how filthy rich and completely out of touch trump's whole cabinet is. a private boat for a family vacation? stopping by a billionaire's island for lunch? nannies, plural?? the epstein class, indeed.
