played pokemon on my switch, connected to the Samsung tv at the Airbnb, and now the tv's "home page" is showing me links to buy the pokemon animated show and the option to play games via some Samsung app on there, so I really fucking hate that

Greg Bovino sadly filling one steamer trunk after another with elaborate fashy overcoats, the teargas canisters he always has bouncing around on him like labubus, and dozens of "chest-belts." They will be shipped ahead of him as he prepares to return to his home, which is a men's size 10 boot.

"DHS has suspended Gregory Bovino’s access to his social media accounts effective immediately," CNN reports

Yes, DHS has used explosives on homes. Like this case in Huntington Park, where they blasted the door down, with children in the house (6 yr old and 1 yr old). Everyone in the house is a US citizen.

It’s making me into the Joker but “young people no longer enjoy Harry Potter because of a disdain for liberalism” might be the most New York Times editorial that has ever been published in the New York Times

This hit so fucking hard today.

I wonder if anyone at Palantir know what Palantir does

You can read the full scoop here: www.wired.com/story/palant...

One worker asked if ICE could use Palantir's products and services beyond the scope of its contracts. Akash Jain, CTO + President of Palantir USG responded: www.wired.com/story/palant...

More: “I’ve read stories of folks rounded up who were seeking asylum with no order to leave the country, no criminal record, and consistently check in with authorities. Literally no reason to be rounded up. Surely we aren’t helping do that?” www.wired.com/story/palant...

Some comments from workers in the hours after Pretti's killing: “In my opinion ICE are the bad guys. I am not proud that the company I enjoy so much working for is part of this." www.wired.com/story/palant...

In the updated wiki, Palantir leadership defends its work for ICE, claiming that the company can have a "positive impact" by "providing officers and agents with the data to make more precise, informed decisions." www.wired.com/story/palant...

SCOOP: Palantir Defends Work With ICE to Staff Following Killing of Alex Pretti WIRED obtained Slack conversations + an updated internal Palantir wiki defending the company's work for ICE to outraged workers. More here: www.wired.com/story/palant...

"If I get unalived by frozen water with pew pews..." shutupshutupshutupshutup

And that's the thing that gets me: there's no real evidence that making these changes does anything. bsky.app/profile/cunt...

Now that TikTok has changed ownership in the U.S., it's as good a time as ever to again say how much I truly hate algospeak euphemisms like "unalived" and whatnot. I wish people would knock that off.

this is a very weak piece, for multiple reasons. its claim about Gen Z is based on a couple of comments, not actual sales. it is also extremely normal for kids not to be *that* into a series from two decades ago. And there's minimum mention of Rowling turning into a fervent bigot.

Oh wow. This quote of hers... youtube.com/shorts/-1FGZ...

honestly this explains why the Times published such a weak piece to begin with; ideological alignment with milkwater liberalism mixed with soft bigotry.

you will be *shocked* to learn that the author of the piece is a raving transphobe herself. www.transgendermap.com/issues/topic....

Attn @nytpitchbot.bsky.social, the mothership has one-upped you again.

Sometimes billionaires buy things so they can murder them.

The officer who shot Alex worked for DHS for 8 years. The officer who shot Renee worked for DHS for over 10 years. Both are considered “highly trained.” The problem isn’t "training." DHS was built to violate our rights and has been empowered to act with impunity. We must MELT ICE and dismantle DHS.

Weird that hiring away a few checked-out Tory alcoholics from British dailies and emphasizing op eds about Why Your Boss Deserves A Tax Cut didn't deliver better results but what can you do? What, at the end of the day, can you do?

Shame, maybe they can plummet off a cliff about it

I'm not a gun guy, is holding a shotgun with your dick while you fumble with a smoke grenade considered good trigger discipline?

Lmfaooooo it’s so over for this guy

Graham Linehan proves the point that trans liberationists have been saying from the start: If you'll permit dehumanising and stripping the rights of trans people, you will dehumanise and strip the rights of anyone on a long enough timeline.

we're going to need to pull off the biggest bake sale the bay has ever seen

This is one of the things that I find is most shocking to people outside Minnesota who don’t realize it yet—the scale at which everyone who isn’t white has been forced into a spectrum of hiding. Very good article drawing out the Tahrir Square comparison.

commiserations to non-Dutch speakers, who will never know what this is about

Now that blood is on the street, we still won’t admit you’ve been right all decade long while we scolded and marginalized you. Instead, we’ll declare it’s just now become right to say such things.

Every soccer team I've coached, there's a mom (not usually the same mom, and never a dad, not once in a dozen seasons) who makes a spreadsheet for snack duties, often including questions about allergies and preferences: It's another great case of these guys being totally and proudly ignorant.

Don’t execute citizens in the street and then you won’t have to worry about the populace JD. Probably too busy fucking a couch to understand.

I think about this post a lot.

ICE has kidnapped another Indigenous person in Minneapolis. This is the fifth member of the Očhéthi Šakówinnto be taken this month. Statement from Standing Rock:

"also, the leftists were right too soon and too stridently so they were wrong"

This administration is cooked. Literally no one is scared of them.

i once asked an older greek anarchist how it is that greek protestors go so hard and he said that having overthrown a fascist regime in living memory, everyone knows what the cops are and whose side they're on and i think we're getting there.

Whistles are now WMDs, according to the "high IQ" crowd.
