According to its new privacy policy, TikTok now collects more data on its users, including their precise location, after majority ownership officially switched to a group based in the US. www.wired.com/story/tiktok...

You don’t know your role yet maybe, but we are all finding out just what we have to offer. In Minneapolis, one man knew immediately what he could offer and said “Bring me your clothing”.

Covid-19 and cancers connected to September 11 account for 75 percent of the deaths in ICE’s history. No ICE agent has ever been killed by an immigrant. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

"There’s a reason DHS and its counterparts keep getting humiliated in court when they pretend to be victims," @adamrose.bsky.social told @san.com. "They’re losing in front of juries, judges are calling them not credible."

The transformation of ICE into a type of national police force, backed, in some cases, by soldiers from the National Guard, has been covered as immigration story—but these forces are reshaping democracy for all of us. Listen to 'Autocracy in America' here: www.theatlantic.com/podcasts/202...

The Norwegian Nobel Prize committee has been forced to make a statement, declaring that the prize cannot be transferred. It's hard even to comprehend how stupid this has become

It was a thrilling movie that lived up to the hype and years of anticipation of seeing it on the big screen; the 4K restoration was beautiful. Roy Scheider (1932 ‑ 2008) was underrated for his range and intensity as an actor. This role is up there with ALL THAT JAZZ and JAWS.

And to Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, but was relaunched in Ultimate Tiny Tim #1, which takes place after Amazing Tiny Tim #332 and All-New Tiny Tim #200, and don’t forget to read the Scrooge / David Copperfield / Great Expectations crossover event minis otherwise the Miss Havisham bit won’t make sense

It’s funny (ha ha) how a lot of people are pretty sick with a very weird bug and we no longer have a functional CDC
