Going for my mental health walkies before I get back to my pile of projects that are in progress.

ICE is still out here at Broadview firing pepper balls at protesters. Some folks just got hit pretty bad. Air out here is awful and people are retching.

Hey so I'm still writing slides for this, but looking forward to fruitful discussions and a space to talk about things. Still time to register lockdownyourlife.as.me/changes

We should really be keeping Disney subscriptions cancelled and going after Sinclair, Tegna and Nexstar.

This is horrible news: When I look for informative reporting on politics and elections in Washington state, most of what I find and learn from is from Crosscut/Cascade PBS. This will leave a huge void.

Tried to get my real ID. I had my license, my SS card and my birth certificate. I was not allowed to get my real ID because my birth name is different than my married name. Now I have to go dig up a marriage certificate. You know who wouldn’t have to do this? A man. Never change your last name.

Screamed in my car today. Again.

#OpEd: "We can’t bury the deeper, driving forces behind why this is happening. This phenomenon is only possible because of the outsized power that state agents — ICE, police officers, prison staff — have always had to abuse and control women and victims' bodies." Read the full story here. ⬇️

hi my book comes out tomorrow 😭

Michigan Republican State Rep. Josh Schriver has proposed an online porn ban that seeks to prohibit explicit material as well as any “depiction, description, or simulation” of trans people.

Gonna have to concede that disney adults are leagues ahead of potterheads

Our story about treatment delays and life-threatening incidents in ICE facilities is cited by ~30 US senators in a letter to Noem, urging her to "cease detaining pregnant, postpartum, and nursing women absent exceptional circumstances." www.cantwell.senate.gov/imo/media/do...

Just checking, has anyone sued over the HB-1 Visa thing yet?

Every Millenial right now.

ICE shot "projectiles, threw flash bang grenades, pepper-sprayed and deployed tear gas" at protesters. ICE detainee "said he was held in a cell with 150 other men, had his medication taken away and was not given regular food." #Illinois #USA #Healthcare #Incarceration #Deportation #EthnicCleansing

Hey bsky, I’m homeless after eviction. Me, a friend, and three dogs are living in a rental van. We need help with gas and meals, as we drive to find food and camp spots daily. Anything helps! Please share. #mutualaid Cashapp: $brixandbats Venmo: @elohelexe

UPDATE: Huffpo is reporting the Trump administration "plans to evacuate" the Broadview facility in the wake of recent protests. If you have info about where ICE's processing operations will be happening in the Chicagoland area after this move, I am KMHChi.01 on Signal.

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

trans people just want to be able to live their lives and cis people are like "due to this we need to do mandatory genital inspections to children playing sports". im sorry but the problem is cis people

BREAKING: Luigi Mangione's lawyers have filed a motion to dismiss his case on constitutional grounds. Some arguments are specific to his case, involving AG Bondi's actions, while others are more generally applicable. Law Dork earlier covered the underlying conduct: www.lawdork.com/p/luigi-mang...

These are the real ones out in the tear gas making sure protesters aren't disappeared. Please support today:

Good news to wake up to this morning.

Coffee. So much coffee.

There is a lot of demand for digital privacy and security advice out there right now and lots of people are giving advice and writing guides. I beg them to do a few things: 1. Be explicit about the threat model your advice is meant for.

Someone sent me an unsolicited dick pic. I sent it to his wife.

Earlier this year, ProPublica found that the sepsis rate in second-trimester pregnancy loss hospitalizations increased by more than 50% under Texas’ abortion ban. Here’s how we did our analysis. (Published Feb. 2025)

Please share, only 28 hours to go now. Mai’s and Ghadeer’s families must escape Gaza City. They needed to a month ago, last week, yesterday. But we keep trying. For Palestinian life. For their next hour of hope. 3702/4000

Check out Justice Eddins’ complete repudiation of the Roberts Court here. It’s worth reading in full. It’s quite brave—and exceedingly rare—for a sitting judge to speak so candidly and scathingly about SCOTUS’ partisan contortions of law, history, and fact. www.courts.state.hi.us/wp-content/u...

The story below isn’t getting the attention it deserves because it’s happening to brown folk over there. But we’ve quickly forgotten how social media shaped political action in t& not the other way around. The Arab Spring, BLM on Twitter, G. Floyd on TikTok. 1/2

i don't have any food, but i'm holding onto this money so tightly - this payment needs to be made ASAP i never imagined that i'd ever have to choose between food & healthcare. everything about that is fucked up.

This moment is disturbing even in the mundane: I’ve started taking screenshots of historical sources I’m using in research from the national park service, the smithsonian, and the national archives, just in case they get taken down. It’s now a part of my process and takes time I have to plan for.
