A Jabalia data centre has been bombed and Internet has been cut off again. You know the drill!! @sfdirewolf.bsky.social @thellpsx.bsky.social bit.ly/eSimsRUs #ConnectingGaza

Man, first Sly Stone and now Brian Wilson? The flights of angels who sing folks to their rest just got a coupla the best to do it.

"why did a car burn?" is not a greater question than "why did you kidnap Jose?"

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

We feed you. They hunt us.

Something that I think weighs on many is that everyone knows that if ever the Democrats were fully in power at the Federal level again, they will not immediately move to reverse what has been destroyed and build something new. This reality just sits out there like an anchor.

Great thread, but especially this

It's cool and foggy today, I'm tired and sad, so it's a perfect day for this warm, smooth album from The Maestro, @roncarterjazz.com m.youtube.com/watch?v=6FSF...

the hard times doesn't miss @thehardtimesnews.bsky.social

The reason Democrats are trying to downplay the significance of ICE raids and a military response to protestors in relation to the Trump bill is that they also support ICE raids and military responses to protestors, whereas they would prefer that Medicaid not be cut.

TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER OUT THERE, FRIENDS AND COMRADES. FUCK THE POLICE, FUCK ICE

Still waiting for the article that’s like “these right wing militia members are in a bubble and it would be healthier if they exposed themselves to left wing ideas”

🚨 Support Los Angeles immigrant communities 🚨 Please consider donating to one or all of the following orgs: Immigrant Defenders Law Center: give.immdef.org/donate LA Jail Support / Bail Fund: account.venmo.com/u/jailsuppor... Unión del Barrio: uniondelbarrio.org/main/support...

One of the reasons I think “defund the police” is a great slogan is that you get to repeatedly tell people that studies show that police don’t actually solve murders, and in fact one-third of stranger-murders are committed by police.

This needs as much coverage as protests or ICE raids. Los Angelenos FTW. ❤️🙌

Your Cherokee words for today. The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically. In this instance, "ice" translates to "kidnappers" or "body thieves"

They can’t police trans people’s bodies without policing cis people’s bodies, and they can’t police immigrants without policing citizens.

Perhaps Newsom should have spent less time chumming around with authoritarian buffoons on his podcast and more time preparing and strategizing for the entirely predicable thing that is happening in his state right now.

Years as a Goth prepared me for peoples’ shitty takes on trans folk: Cultural criticism of Gothic fashion in the 80s & 90s boiled down to, “Why would they do this to themselves? It’s not attractive to me personally.” So many people apply this metric, never realizing it’s not about them

Remember this iconic photo from Ferguson? This is Edward Crawford, throwing back a tear gas canister to protect some nearby kids. Like many identified Ferguson protesters and organizers, he was "found dead" a couple years later and neither the cops nor the media will ever investigate.

The crackdowns on civilians and the threat of the national guard being sent to LA should be *the* most important story right now-- not the Trump/Musk feud or whatever the f**k that was. People are being terrorized all over the country. News outlets need to get it together.

Protecting our neighbors is how we build community TRUST. Nobody trusts the state, and with good reason. All we have is one another.

the people in LA putting their safety on the line right now to try and stop ICE are the bravest people we have got

not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

Straight up tail wagging the dog & anyone who calls themself an education technologist should know better. 1st question is always what tech, if any, will support the learning (or operational here) outcome? This is just looking for a way to fire support staff.

every day there's some fresh actual nazi shit that 99% of people were never taught is actual nazi shit

But PRIDE values /s

Pretty damning considering the JAMA piece last week that said Long COVID has surpassed asthma as the most prevalent chronic illness among children.

The leopards They are eating each other yes YES The leopards are HUNGRY

It's straight-up gallows humor, but watching two horrible human beings who are both thin-skinned terminal posters sure is something

remember: the enemy of my enemy is probably also a shithead, but they can go a few rounds with my enemy while I hydrate with my doors locked b/c I am not inviting them over

I've never caught a poppy at this stage!

13-yr-old Camarria Williams made a remarkable discovery when she found a compound with potential cancer-fighting properties in goose poop from Garfield Park, Chicago. This surprising find happened while participating in the Chicago Antibiotic Discovery Lab, a STEM program in collaboration with the

I'm seriously thinking about going back to the classroom, but having to deal with this stuff on top of all the OTHER wild stuff in gr 9-12 is just so flipping dispiriting

pay close attention to the way we talk about about human beings in conversations about AI. in cases like this, exploited workers in other countries are not footnotes to the story, they are the story

Following up: while Jonathan Joss complained about years of homophobic abuse from his neighbors and his husband wrote that the murderer was screaming homophobic epithets, the San Antonio police says there’s “no evidence” of a hate crime. This is why so many queer folks don’t like cops at Pride.
