1 out of 3 being okay with all of this is still incredibly fucked up.

Leah has been doing some real shit for a while. It's worth reading anything and everything she puts out.

NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign. Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship. Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

Chapter 16 of In the Wolf's Eyes is up! "Magic is culture, young man. It’s passed down in families, in stories, in dreams, in pain, in blood spilled and blood shared and blood chosen."

The mass detentions of immigrants the 5th Circuit just approved was ofc based on a Clinton-era statute. Dems are saying "It's not what we meant," but that doesn't appear to be stopping anybody, and the abusive interpretations were ID'd at the time but poo-pooed as leftie silliness.

Brutal, but accurate.

It's so funny because they lack the capacity to make new stuff in the same vein that hits like the old stuff they're hyping up. The analysis needed for that skill requires self reflection and looking at reality instead of deluding themselves they're inherently superior.

The *only* response to this is all the other governors drop out.

The Ford worker who heckled Trump during a visit to the company's plant still has his job and "has no discipline on his record," a union official said

Autistic masking for those who need more information

Rickea Jackson was the 4th overall pick in the 2024 WNBA draft. Wikipedia: In her rookie season, started in 35 of 40 regular season games, and averaged 13.4 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists. She was named to the 2024 WNBA All-Rookie Team. Women's lives and accomplishments matter!

Without naming your job, tell me something you say over and over again at work. “What the fuck?"

More of this, please.

‘A deliberate assault on a treasure of Western civilization’ Charlie, little dude, Helen was born from an egg, with her sister Clytemnestra, when Zeus took the form of a swan and impregnated their mother Leda, and you’re mad that Lupita will play her?

Helen of Troy is Zeus's daughter when he rapes Leda while he's a swan and you're concerned about the actress's skin color, you stupid fucking racist douchenuggets?

This man was murdered by an off-duty ICE agent and he has two young daughters who will not have the support of a father ever again. We can't raise even $300k for these girls?

Devastating decision from the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals last night endorsing the Trump Bureau of Immigration Appeals 2025 ruling that undocumented immigrants “apprehended anywhere in the United States are ineligible for release on bond, regardless of how long they have resided in the U.S.”

stolen word for word from @jamesstout.bsky.social's Nat Geo piece--have a little shame.

This is the truth, right here.

This is exactly what infowars was screaming about Obama planning to do back in 2009 in 'The Obama Deception'. Everything they say is projection of their own wants on their percieved enemies. Fucking cults.

Fun fact: majority of the docs that work for the Louisiana DOC have license restrictions or have been convicted of a crime. The head doc of DOC got popped trying to buy $8k worth of meth in a Home Depot parking lot. I ain't no meth-ologist but that ain't a personal use quantity of meth.

“Every single woman had been in the facility about three weeks and had been living in the same articles of clothing for three weeks…Their clothes had not been washed. They had not been offered fresh underwear or fresh clothing. Some of them were literally still in their snow boots from Minnesota."

if you’re wondering what “unauthorized gray market” means, it means we literally don’t know what goes into those drugs other than the very limited information that companies disclose

This is incredible reporting and incredible story ABOUT reporting--Unravelled journos clearly lay out the steps they took and why and that their results were.

“U.S. employers announced 108,435 layoffs for the month, up 118% from the same period a year ago. The total marked the highest for any January since 2009, while the economy was in the final months of its steepest downturn since the Great Depression.”

We had the good fortune of learning research without the internet, in libraries with curated books. These kids are not living in that world.

Where dick weredick? There dick theirdick! (I'm a they, I can't help it[well, I could, but I ain't gonna])

Those red eyes make a unique vibe. They're going on a gift myself list.

Goodmorning nerds and/or Queens.

"National security" My brain just gagged.

I've reread this like 3 times. Freed herself from slavery by running away, *went back a week later bc the slaver was talking shit, set his house on fire, and then escaped again is absolutely incredible queen shit

I’m actually quite moved by how swiftly she pivots away from her own grief and trauma - real and justified though it is - to remind us not to take our eyes off the women who were assaulted

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

BREAKING: Judge blocks Noem's second attempt to keep members of Congress out of immigration facilities. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb issued a temporary restraining order on Monday morning. New, at Law Dork:

Let your very existance, be the boulder, plunging through the opaque shroud of glass, known as their ego. And let the tinkling of it scattering be the music, fading into the distance, as you continue on living, thriving, imbibing in your self worth.

America was fully formed with functioning societies before anyone even got here. And then those societies were terrorized and hunted and land was stolen and razed. And then stolen people rebuilt upon it. Under torture and threat of death.

"My verbalized narration of my life is completely normal, for a documentary."

put that motherfucker on the grill

5. When elections for the General Assembly were announced to be held a month later,the CMUC focused on organizing Black men to vote. They knew that at most precincts white men would prevent Black men from voting, so they planned to approach polling places where they thought they had the best chance.

Do you remember when people were saying "I think my phone is listening to me, i'm getting ads for stuff I spoke about" and people said "They arent listening to you, they're just this good at predicting your interests"? Well, it happens they were doing exactly that. www.cbsnews.com/news/google-...

It's not lost on me that the MeToo movement fizzled because of allegations against Joe Biden The very Joe Biden who became president and sat on these Epstein Files his entire term

His ego is as fragile as thin glass.
