wtf.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

In general, I really like @nomachineofficial.bsky.social -- easy to use, easy to tunnel, compatible across a wide variety of systems, and reliable. It just works.

Wow: In the early vote, it's a blow-out *so far*. Rodney Sadler, the progessive pastor and activist, leads state Representative Carla Cunningham 75% to 18%. (Stay tuned as we see how the Election Day vote compares, but that's an ominous start for the incumbent.) Context:

Stunning and historic result in the Gordon and Denton parliamentary by-election in the UK. The anti-genocide Green Party led by Zack Polanski has won the seat from Keir Starmer's governing Labour Party. Nigel Farage's Reform UK and its odious candidate Matt Goodwin beaten.

An ICE agent shot and killed 23-year-old U.S. citizen Ruben Ray Martinez in Texas almost an entire year ago and hid the shooting from the public. It’s only now coming to light, 11 months later, due to Freedom of Information Act requests. What else is the regime hiding from us?

GOLD!!!! USA! Way to go Mens Hockey!!! GOLD!!!!

You won't protect your principles by abandoning your principles. You won't protect one group of threatened people by abandoning another. All you'll do is bounce around the fascist frame, and so you'll never threaten the fascist project, because even if you "win" you're still inside their picture.

Big news for DOCUMENTARY NOW! fans: There's a coffee table book coming out in May, and I wrote the introduction! You can order signed (by me!) copies at the link below. Written by Seth Meyers + cast and crew. It runs 600 pages and includes the complete score to CO-OP. mzs.press/PRE-ORDER-SI...

I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it. I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.” 1/

What the actual fuck? All operations including 121 and Twelve-Five. No prior approval mechanism. No reason.

And here it is! My wife and I went to Alton Bay for breakfast this morning. We were the first flight in.

I'm so angry with Jeppesen I could spit. If there were ANY OTHER OPTION for nav data for my Avidyne system, I'd use it. Anything.

Finally! Some good news! Just got word from my mechanic. The new plug that was installed was defective in an obscure way: it worked fine until the temperature got to about 300°F, and then it went open circuit. So when he tested the run-up it was fine, but it failed in my extended test.

This @bostonreview.bsky.social piece by @adambonica.bsky.social and @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social is an absolute must-read, as are many of the responses to it. Spread this one far and wide.

Can someone please get trapped on a greyhound heading out of state? I need a distraction from the news.

I just spent an hour browsing my “likes” page wondering why there was nothing new to see.

This is an amazing comparison. Just brilliant. www.independent.co.uk/arts-enterta...

Someone deflated his votes.

I’ve posted before about delicious corn-flavored corn products, and I’ve got a new entrant.

The Falcon 7X is functionally the updated replacement to the Falcon 900, yet there are several subtle yet obvert design changes. Most notable is that the 7X has dihedral when the F900 has anhedral. Dihedral is that upward angle to the wings and anhedral the downward angle #avgeek

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

We’re going to war with Greenland, aren’t we? If there is a next president, it’s hard to see how we ever make things right again with the rest of the world. Who could possibly trust us?

(follows, vainly hoping for more content like this)

In 2003, as part of a massive crackdown on civil liberties, Congress passed a bill creating the Department of Homeland Security, and with it, ICE. Since then, ICE agents have wreaked havoc on our communities. Enough is enough.

Just rewatched “High Anxiety,” a movie I originally saw in the movie theater. Almost 49 years ago.

Ugh another failed run-up. On December 13th, I went to go for a little flight and the #6 cylinder temp ran away on the left mag. Tried to fix it like a fouled plug but no avail. Told my mechanic and he eventually looked at it: high resistance in that plug. Replaced.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans. This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota: “Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands.”

Back in 2014, an internal CBP audit found a bit of a problem: "...BP officers were discharging their weapons out of frustration, rather than to guard their safety. It also suggested that officers were purposely placing themselves in front of moving vehicles, and then shooting at them." #ICE

We happen to be watching the 1st ep of the Apple TV docu-series on Marty Scorsese tonight and Thelma Schoonmaker showed up & I wanted to make sure she’s alive and well and found that TODAY IS HER BIRTHDAY fuck yeah what a queen en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelma_...

New — I wrote about how corporate media is immediately siding with power in the wake of Trump attacking Venezuela and capturing Maduro, and how journalists need to treat the administration as a hostile entity that’s openly lying to them.

I need a way to preemptively block all of the dipshits stumbling over themselves breathlessly to tell us all how they only code via LLMs now. It’s depressing. Maybe I can craft an AI prompt to create the Bluesky filter for this.

Bugonia is a pretty wild movie.

Mayor Mamdani has nullified every executive order issued by Eric Adams after he struck his corrupt bargain with Trump to secure dismissal of the indictment against him.

Wow, my recap is a bit boring. I need to look up more places to go.

When Nick Shirley arrived to "test" if he could enroll his son "Joey" in Minneapolis day cares, his viral video omitted that he showed up with an entourage of masked men acting like security, multiple vehicles including vans, cameras, and men who wouldn't identify themselves. One day care owner /

Best gift this year just arrived.

My penultimate airline flight,using the f/o's iphone, image quality has come a long way in the last 12 years!

I’m sitting in the waiting room at the hospital, waiting for my wife to come out of recovery. A guy comes in and talks to the receptionist. “I have an 11 o’clock appointment tomorrow.” She looks up the info. Then he says, “I won’t be able to make it; I have COVID.”

Every installment of this MTG rehabilitation tour feels like “Nice Scorpion Regrets Past Stings, Needs Help With River Crossing!”
