It’s funny how cyberpunk turned out to be both prophetic and totally off base because the substance was largely correct but the aesthetic ended up being Idiocracy meets Supersize Me rather than sexy techno-noir.

UPDATE: “The man who impersonated ICE to intimidate the employees of a Philly auto repair center — and steal about $1,000 — will face numerous felony and misdemeanor charges…”: www.phillyvoice.com/philly-robbe... Fake ICE agents were inevitable. How can cities be proactive about this?

JUNETEENTH in Harlem. This is what America is about. Perhaps the most American holiday of all, Juneteenth honors the very best of what this country can be. It’s a celebration of the courage to fight for freedom, even when the cost is steep. It’s sad that the president gets angry over this

“ICE in just a few weeks has transformed itself into the closest thing that the US has ever had to a ‘secret police,’ with more seemingly culturally in common with the Klan nightriders of Reconstruction than their federal agency brethren like the FBI or ATF.” @garrettgraff.bsky.social

"ROUTE STEP, MARCH!" Fact. I was so f*cking unexpectedly proud to be an Army vet Saturday. "This sucks, when is this over," screaming from every soldier's face. This opener nails it www.newyorker.com/news/the-led... #Army #Parade #Protest #Veterans

Last night @maddow.msnbc.com did a great segment on people defying Trump—refusing to be denied their right to protest & showing up in DC to oppose his fascist military parade. We organized this protest bc in the name of humanity, we REFUSE to accept a fascist USA! #TrumpMustGoNow

National protest organizers told people not to protest in DC because “Trump might declare martial law,” says one organizer. These people said “fuck that.” And they’re marching to the White House.

The New York Times making it sound as if the United States is just about to join a super-prestigious club, when it's really slipping (slipped?) into the company of countries ruled by extrajudicial despots.

"Millions" isn't good enough for 6/14. "Tens of millions" is getting warmer, but still not good enough. If you don't think of every day this summer, from here on, as "now or never" for personally mobilizing, you need to wake the f*ck up. #June14th #NoKings #50501movement #Trump #Protests #DC #LA

Hello, DC cop here. Trump cannot give us orders, nor does he dictate our use of force parameters. The freedom of assembly is still valid. Feel free to protest peacefully and lawfully. Also: MPD does not assist ICE with any immigration enforcement.

California is America's backbone and Los Angeles is its greatest city. Without Cali, America ceases to recognizably exist. Fourth largest GDP in the world (sorry, Japan). Breadbasket of the country and inventor of its future. From a native Californian who badly misses home, stay strong #Cali #LA.

not the main issue here but i'd really appreciate it if democratic politicians spoke out in support of big-city life and culture with the same energy and reverence that all politicians have for small towns los angeles is "real america" and so are all the other big cities the president hates

As a veteran who has received all of my care through the #VA for years, with only positive things to say about it, it's good (I guess?) to see this measured, relatively thoughtful, on-the-record account from a #DOGE guy sent to destroy it. VA ranks among the best medical systems on the planet.

First attempt at a 3D model of the Mississippian metropolis Cahokia at its height, nearly a millennium ago. A sprawling metroplex with as many as 50,000 people stretched across both sides of the Mississippi River on the site of what's now greater St. Louis, MO. #Illinois #NativeAmerican #Archaeology

The Speaker of the House is personally responsible for the upcoming suffering to the people in DC because he’s too weak to stand up to a few people in his own caucus. He’s no servant leader. He’s a selfish coward.

Just to remind everyone: this is our fucking money--locally raised tax dollars--that Congress simply won't let our government spend, for no reason other than spite. This is why DC needs statehood. But also, this is just petty, petty bullshit by House Republican leadership.
