ICE Agents Wait At Edge Of Delivery Table To Deport Newborn

I just thought everyone should see this

Dr Martin Luther King, Jr-Nobel Peace Prize, 1964, defender of freedom and justice for all people, everywhere. Long may we honor his memory and his courage on behalf of We the People.

this site seems to genuinely have an issue with viewing explanation as a form of endorsement

“When I first heard they’d found a cure for dyslexia, it was like music to my arse.” —source unknown

Leonardo DiCaprio has stopped using Wikipedia.

I've been doom scrolling for the past two hours and, much to my surprise, it hasn't helped at all

It was such a wonderful moment when I finally convinced my phone that, no, I’m not trying to say “ducking” and it stopped autocorrecting

Shocked by the awful death of Rob Reiner. I spoke with him for over an hour last night. We talked about his work and his plans for the future. I always enjoyed his company. We met at his Dad's in 1975. Last thing he said to me was "See you next year.." Such a terrible end. Such a sweet man.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama. Us: Across your entire career? Reiner: In a 6 year period. Us: That sounds- Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

"Bluesky is an echo chamber." "Bluesky doesn't have enough reach" "Liberals must return to X to challenge the far right" I'm not a tech bro or a journalist. Your priorities are not my priorities. Stop telling me I need to do anything other than chat about comics & telly with people who seem nice.

JB Pritzker: “We’re a nation mostly of immigrants — that is who we are fundamentally at our core. We ought to always be that, it’s what’s made our country great — Immigrants are the most entrepreneurial. Immigrants are the most grateful & patriotic”

I understand that a lot of folks have been misled by fear-mongering and powerful regressive voices but it’s still astonishing to me that so many have fallen for the idea that oppressively policing other people’s gender identity and expression could in any way be part of an enlightened future.

Now that the GOP is attacking him as being too pro trans, Newsom is pushing back. Hmm.

🚫 Want to block an artist on Spotify? Here's how: 1. Go to the artist's profile page. 2. Tap the three-dots menu (⋯). 3. Select "Don't play this artist." That's it! Spotify will stop playing them in your personalized mixes and radio stations. You're in control of your sound! 🎧

Remember when Helen Joyce was called out as "not an expert" by Australian courts - Now Maya Forstater has been told the same in the Peggie judgment! 👏👏👏 The judgement states outright that the evidence submitted by her & Sex Matters was “not skilled evidence.” This is the Tribunal’s exact wording!

The Thing (1982, John Carpenter)

We must #ChangeTheNarrative! Dr Beth Upton was fully acquitted of all wrongdoing in yesterday’s Employment Tribunal decision. Yet she has been vilified by a toxic & poisonous media for months. It must stop! Congratulations, and solidarity, to you, Beth!

I've loved Sigourney Weaver ever since one of my all-time favorite movies, ALIEN. Couldn't resist going all fanboy on her yesterday & asking for a photo. She told me she's now in the cast of The Mandalorian. Talk about bad timing: she's now in that galaxy far, far away, years after I checked out! 💔

The Girl Guide announcement. What can I say? I’m imagining if it was my child - the conversations and explanations, the apologies, “I’m sorry, so sorry,” trying to comfort but feeling a failure because I couldn’t protect her from GC hate. And the child and parents - a little bit more broken.

Access to the internet is essential, not a luxury. It's crucial for jobs, education, healthcare, and housing. The absence of affordable broadband in many communities is not just a "tech gap," but a critical civil rights matter. #DigitalDivide #CivilRights #TruthBombTuesday

Data centres are energy hungry but what if we could use their waste heat to heat our homes? That's exactly what happens in places like Finland: Cities are tapping the vast amounts of waste heat generated by data centres, and feeding it into district-heating networks.

I genuinely do not understand other humans. I said something stupid last night and it will haunt me for weeks. Then there are GCs out there making horrible comments about children, supporting policies that kill children, and going about their day with ease.

Why do they keep making new music when the best stuff all came out when I was a teen?

Remember to thank Rebecda Black today for inventing Fridays, we honor her today on Black Friday

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

A distressed sixteen year old sends an impassioned letter explaining how fear of the withdrawal of her gender affirming care has left her suicidal. But it’s ok, NHS Sussex ICB are on it with a dedicated helpline. That should fix things. The evidence for the efficacy of helplines is legendary.

"YOU don’t agree with the choices that I made in MY life. If it was not for the care of Dr. Sam Hall and my choice to live MY life happily and transitioning to who I am today, I would not be alive right now." northwestbylines.co.uk/news/health/...

Dedicated helplines are like tourniquets. They're good at helping with crises but rely on one too long and that does its own damage. Trans youth requires real, sustained support. No emergency fixes.

this is so hideous & i honestly can’t look away either

This is the correct take. Stewing in white supremacist propaganda is bad for your thinking. And if think you are so savvy that it won’t impact you, you are the exact kind of mark they are slowly converting (I’m looking at you, centrist pundits).

you've tweeted 452k times since december 2013. that's 103 tweets a day. assuming you sleep 8 hours a day, that's a new tweet every ten mins for twelve years. talking about how to attract a high value man. brother, you need to attract a HIGH VALUE JOB

Hey, remember when Dr. Cass, Wes Streeting and Louis Appleby all lied and said that Labour's gender affirming care ban didn't cause suicide?

imagine looking like this while writing tasks for a show that's basically saw for middle aged people

Please, Rian. We need this!

Me: "Ugh... all this shameless commercialism is disgusting." Also Me: "OH MY GOD I WANT THAT GUMMIGOO PLUSH"

Morning.

I wish it didn’t feel so unusual and inspiring to see a leader treating everyone like they matter and saying that we have a responsibility to help each other

A largely sympathetic interview conducted by a transphobic journalist and Linehan still comes across as a terrible person.

“Speaking outside his chateau in France, former Brexit Party and UKIP MEP Coburn answered "no" when a BBC journalist asked him whether he’d ever been paid to give a speech to promote pro-Russian campaigners” Just FFS investigate the whole dodgy traitorous lot of them. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
