This was the kind of treatment the union activists got today from Oregon’s largest unions alongside coalitions like @jwjpdx.bsky.social. They fired projectiles and injured many demonstrators and broke out neighbors windows. Gas for a half dozen miles in each direction. #iceout

The Laughing Man, yep that was a warning.

Everybody who perpetrated this while covering it up should be in the Hague www.reuters.com/world/early-...

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable. Biden himself said they were fabricated! www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

remember when he scoffed at this and then like four days later there was an article about his 75 favorite books bsky.app/profile/crar...

Hassan did a video the other day about how Rogan has bought into the whole conspiracy about the Signal chat in Minneapolis. Whatever misgivings he might have about how ICE is operating, he’s far from turning on Trump. He is really one of the dumbest men alive.

Gillian Anderson then vs now

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

New NHTSA crash data, combined with Tesla’s new disclosure of robotaxi mileage, reveals Tesla’s autonomous vehicles are crashing at a rate much higher than human drivers, and that’s with a safety monitor in every car. Tesla has reported 9 crashes involving its robotaxi fleet in Austin, TX. /1

This is apparently not only real but, as i was assured, very normal.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.

John Carpenter's THE THING just earned another major accolade: being added to the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress.

One Minnesota journalist doing remarkable work right now is Elizabeth Shockman/@eshockmanwrites.bsky.social for @mprnews.org. This article posted yesterday on child detentions is an essential read. An essential read.

DAILY MEMO: Border Patrol and ICE Raid Almost 20 L.A. Communities, Almost 30 Total in SoCal in Record Numbers @eltragon.bsky.social

This what this list of raids looks like... And we’re still learning of more late. We’ll have to update this in the morning. lataco.com/daily-memo-j...

This is such a good article. When I was a teenager, I was swept away by this bombastic idea of Richard Feynman discovering the O-ring problem with sheer ingenuity. In reality, engineers knew and tried to stop the launch. Sally Ride was the one who gave him the tip. www.abc.net.au/news/science...

"Jucika's success" We have less than 4 days to raise $4.7k to pay off the rest of our recent Emergency room medical bills, we are getting closer, it's just a little more, any generosity and help is greatly appreciated! www.gofundme.com/f/support-ge...

I'm calling bullshit on the media narrative that Trump is "pivoting" and "deescalating" on his ICE raids. The threshold is this: As long as the military occupations and the treatment of US cities as enemy territory continue, there's no pivot. ICE out. 1/ (New piece) newrepublic.com/article/2057...

I bet Newsom will say something abt her emotional outburst. Or some other pundit will focus on de escalation. What reminds me to ask, when during George Floyd ppl were thrown into black vans or the general conduct of the police did Kamala pulled them before court?

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”

What dystopian cyberpunk timeline is this? Snow Crash or Shadowrun? Total Recall 2070 or Blade Runner?

Sly & Robbie, Superthruster. The very first song from the duo. The music video was great, fitted right in the cyberpunk, Ghost in the Shell hype. m.youtube.com/watch?v=UeXL...

For those that are wondering about ReedPop the company who produces Star Wars Celebration, New York Comic Con, C2E2, & many more and ReedPop’s affiliation with ICE here’s a link to gives all the details actionnetwork.org/petitions/st...

I would say some of the stupid in the show happens because Mr. Android is of the opinion that humans got it too good. In the Alien universe. The ppl in the slums of ProdigyCity. So he wants to unleash monsters for the best of humans? To retvrn? Is that the anti capitalist message of Alien Earth?

I leafed through "Make Us Whole" again, and it really is a great retrospective of Dead Space. It's really fascinating to see how this transmedia project came together, and how the IP evolved and inspired others. I only played the first game and the remake, but this book was really captivating.

"Anxiety is normal! Depression is normal!" Absolutely fuck these people.

Holy shit. We're back on the moral crusade against people who live with mental ill health revival wagon. Once every ten years like an ancient curse. 'it's our moral duty to make people already struggling feel much worse for their own good. Activate the reserve workforce for jobs that aren't there!'

Universal income, so close, universal healthcare, impossible.

Edward Hopper knew that people could be lonely despite being together. He showed how modern America turned shared spaces into isolated cells. But he also knew how deep human bonds could go when the world is seen through shared eyes. 🧵👇 #artbots #hopper

On the other hand, number of ppl really didnt get Starship Troopers by Verhoeven or Song2 by Blur. They justed enjoyed the vibe.

Aw man i just wish i had seen Caprica.

Biden had kids, infants, appearing in immigration court with no lawyers, no parents, and no hope of being treated like a human being. No one wanted to hear about it, let alone try to stop it while a Democrat was in the White House. ICE is a bipartisan monster for the last 25 years, not just now.

We have to be silent and listen and learn what Harris has to say. Maybe just doing the Obama thing where it happens at the border and never will spread inland.
