A message below from my friend Tasneem in Gaza. The cease-fire has been broken, and life is deadly for civilians. Please give to Tasneem so she can feed her children and raise funds to escape. And to others. ❤️ tinyurl.com/Tasneemo

NEW from me —

As ICE descends on Charlotte this week, families are afraid to let their kids leave home. This isn't creating safety—it's causing trauma. Schools must be ICE-free zones. www.newsweek.com/thousands-ch...

New "How to Report ICE" zines up today: #Nashville #Asheville (In North Carolina folder) #TwinCities Metro Area (in Minnesota folder) #NewYorkCity en Español! I am working on the backlog and will have more out tomorrow!! drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Extremely upset that a throw-away XKCD joke somehow became the organizing principle for the Internet.

Aurora Police are adding Flock surveillance drones to their Flock surveillance street cameras as researchers say Flock's system is incredibly easy to hack and manipulate. @spencersoicher.bsky.social reports: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Vsc...

Unlike most apps these days, Scrivener does not use AI in any way. However, if you’re on a Mac, you may see an AI prompt. . Here’s why, and what you can do if you want to remove this: buff.ly/MlAq0rL

I mean, Lemons must understand that at point his license is in jeopardy. I’ve never seen anything close to this. This is the “four seasons total landscaping” of prosecutions. Except here, there will most certainly be lasting professional consequences, if not criminal.

A Hamilton Health Sciences gynecological surgeon has helped to develop a surgical simulator for practising emergency surgeries to assist in preventing life-threatening bleeding after childbirth.

It doesn’t matter how much you exercise or how many veggies you eat when it comes to a pandemic. These things will not stop it, and the shitbirds that Trump has installed in leading public health positions should be fired for even suggesting it would.

“it is bonkers, frankly, when you see [what is happening in Charlotte] yourself.”

No replies allowed. As a former sex crimes & CSAM prosecutor, when I see a person acting out in outlandish sexual ways starting in their teen years and continuing for decades who persist in behavior that is clearly causing them harm, I strongly suspect that they were sexually abused as a child.

i'd recommend everyone to read 'The Anti-Black City: Police Terror and Black Urban Life in Brazil' written by Jaime Alves, who is Black brasileiro born in the state of Bahia and moved to the peripheries of Sao Paulo with his family. blacksky.community/profile/did:...

ANOTHER Republican state senator in Indiana says he's been swatted... as state legislators resist calls to redistrict to create more favorable GOP districts

News so bad… they won’t even be honest about what it is. This administration is driving our economy off a cliff and trying to hide it from Americans.

Borders Czar Tom Homan just announced he’s ramping up ICE operations in NYC. Same playbook we’ve been seeing in LA, DC, Chicago & Charlotte. They aren’t hunting criminals, they’re targeting workers and people who are part of the community. Families. Neighbors. The people who keep the city running.

Given that the fees paid by foreign students are usually used to subsidize the cost of tuition for local students, the White House’s “Good News” isn’t just racist and xenophobic - they also celebrating an almost inevitable increase in the cost of college for American students.

“So I says to the guy, I says, democracy? You want democracy? Why don’t I cut your head instead? Done and done, in a stadium!” “Oh MbS, you’re the best, man!”

Starbucks @sbworkersunited.org baristas are standing up to corporate greed and Starbucks’ unfair labor practices and demanding the fair contract they deserve. No contract? NO COFFEE!

As someone who was born and raised in Brazil until they were 14. When I hear Black Americans talk about Brazil, and how accepting it is of Black people. I am always confused, because Brazil is very racist.

hard to know what she's thinking, but I believe she's dreaming of maybe 5 more subs today? that or she may be thinking about hunting laundry. (she often finds laundry and then drags it around the house screaming.)

John Roberts once promised to be like an umpire. He charmed both senators and the media, and for 20 years, was portrayed as a moderate institutionalist. But today, it's become clear that the promise was a lie. We are watching a rigged game, and Roberts set it up.

Christian Toquiza, a legal resident of Chicago, was abducted and disappeared by ICE while he was on his way to a dentist appointment. He has not been seen since November 18, 2025.

🚨Using any kind of chemical weapons at this range is aggravated assault against peaceful protesters. They have no weapons, they pose no threat. ICE is the enemy. 1/2

Over on Threads there's discourse about some 28 year-old unschooled woman not knowing that Anne Frank died because her mother left the upsetting parts out of history when teaching her, and that would be an excellent example of why unschooling is frequently a fancy word for educational neglect.

As a dues-paying @unitehere.org member, I know unions aren’t just important, they’re essential. Unions lift people out of poverty, raise workplace standards, & give workers the voice they deserve. It was great to welcome @gwenmillsuh.bsky.social to our @laborcaucus.house.gov meeting. #UnionStrong

Russia has once again come forward with a "peace proposal" that is no different from the previous ones. The Russian side’s proposal is essentially a demand for Ukraine’s capitulation. American journalist Michael Weiss also commented on this, citing a source in the U.S. government.

Rep. Garcia: If the AG wants to use her sham investigation in the Southern District of New York to withhold evidence and documents, she can't do the same for our subpoena. She is still legally obligated to produce every single document she has in her possession to the Oversight Committee

No amount of whining about the economy he created will change the fact that his tariff taxes and economic chaos have made life worse for working people. American families can't afford more of this economic sabotage.

I think the key things here are that it wasn't a secret, and that the tolerated norm of powerful men trading access to 18-24 year old women very easily slid into them trading access to children.

NEW: Trump's DOJ sent a subpoena to a gender-affirming care clinic seeking information on patients, including minors, and its insurance billing practices. The clinic—which doesn't even take insurance—fought the demand in court and won. Read @garnethenderson.com in @autonomynews.co

The UK is considering a policy that would effectively segregate trans people from society. It would bar trans people from "single sex spaces" even when they use the facility of their sex assigned at birth. This is a full on policy of segregation without even the benefit of separate facilities.

The uk is fully embracing fascism at a faster pace than America and is already segregated this is going to turbocharge things into oblivion. Across the west liberals are embracing fascist policy faster and faster. instead of embracing dignity and humanity they have chosen hate and violence.

DHS beat, tackled, shackled, cut, and bruised US citizen Arturo Hermosillo in June. His hands turned blue. They stuffed him in a van and drove him to a station. Yet the agents told him that he was never "arrested," just "detained," ICE's new get-out-of-jail-free word.

Everywhere Palestinians are present, they try to build a normal life and resist poverty, marginalization, and all forms of injustice. In the midst of this struggle, the Zionist settler colony commits a massacre here

Trump's censor in chief at the FCC, Brendan Carr, just sent a letter to the heads of BBC, NPR and PBS informing them he's launching a "news distortion" probe into the BBC's editing of a documentary on Trump's Jan. 6 activities. Here it is:

But worry not, he has a footnote explaining why his fixation on Soros "is not political."

In which I go off on a bit of a rant. acasignups.net/25/11/19/whi...

A majority of U.S. adults (59%) say they don’t want to get an updated COVID-19 vaccine. This is roughly identical to the share who said in October 2024 that they probably wouldn’t get the updated vaccine.

This is bananas & has been accomplished entirely via propaganda turbocharged by negative polarization.

There is a legitimate concern with Internet regulations that it should be regulated at the federal level, because having to comply with 50 different state laws, some of which will likely be in direct conflict with others would be a hellish experience for everyone (not just the companies).

Trump on AI: "You can't go through 50 states. You have to get one approval. 50 is a disaster. Because you'll have one woke state and you'll have to do all woke. You'll be back in the woke business. We don't have woke anymore in this country. It's virtually illegal. You'll have a couple of wokesters"

The most annoying part of this word salad is that, as someone who has talked to policy folks in the AI space, I know *exactly* what people said to Trump, which he didn't understand, which got him to spew this utter nonsense. It's like the dumbest game of "telephone" ever.

Will never forget the day a cop put their hand on their gun while yelling at me to pick up some litter.

It's not even a morality issue---it's an equity issue. In essence, about half the student body has to manage the prospect that approaching the professor for help, professional advice, guidance, or feedback is going to go sideways. Women in his classes are not getting the same class.

There’s one person squarely to blame for Trump’s corruption, authoritarianism & assault on democracy: John Roberts. He’s enabled so much of Trump’s lawlessness while somehow escaping accountability for it New cover story from @pemalevy.bsky.social & me www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
