Noticing another uptick in fake AI slop food accounts on here... Some link to fake "blogs" with untested recipes and AI photos, others just follow-farm or spam food feeds. I drop all of these into a mod list if you want a one-stop block list that I update whenever I find new ones.

So are we holding ICE in contempt of court or not?
Because if they don't face legal consequences they're going to keep ignoring the courts.

My citizenship status is pretty low-risk so this theoretically protects people like me and I unequivocally oppose this. A threat to one is a threat to all. Disgusting capitulation in the face of an overwhelming mandate. The bare minimum is abolition and I accept nothing less.

DHS has a whole citizen detainment system set up in Minnesota. They snatch citizens off the street (often with proof they are citizens), detain them for a few hours, steal their phones, then release them into the cold.
It ain’t about deporting citizens; it’s about terrorizing a whole population.

‘Abolish ICE’ has become an increasingly popular position and people are being shot in the streets over it why the fuck would you dillweeds roll over like this. Especially given that citizenship is much more friable than people think it is this is not as protective as dems want it to look.

Something that this really throws into sharp relief for me is the difference between this and how way too many—if not most—Dems in leadership treat us as voters. Which is to say not as citizens and participants in the process but as passive checked out consumers

"The host of Fear Factor serves as a propaganda minister for the host of The Apprentice, who is president of the United States" I cry in 2005 as they drag me into the cushioned paddy wagon
you can't take anyone saying "rogan has turned on trump" seriously. the guy is completely compromised. he spends his entire life online but plays dumb about anything inconvenient for the right wing and tries to dodge the topic. he's a fully controlled arm of the US government

Another banger from Jonathan Guyer, who's been on the USAID-Gaza beat for a few years.
If anyone wonders why I really, really hate Joe Biden and his administration? It's because I had to work for them on Gaza. They're evil, evil people who deserve prison.

Public media and public services like education and libraries are vital and I would not be where I am without them.

"Our standing rule is: If one of us brings up using GenAI in any of our work, then it's safe to assume we've been assimilated by The Thing and should be burned alive by Kurt Russell," said a game design consultant in the US.
Over 50% of game developers now think generative AI is bad for the industry, a dramatic increase from just 2 years ago: 'I'd rather quit the industry than use generative AI'
The latest GDC survey also found that managers are more likely to use generative AI than their employees.

What do you mean "create a code of conduct" there already IS a code of conduct that prohibits murdering people who are not using violent force. It is called the US Constitution.
If that's not binding ICE, neither will your agreement.

We already have a warrant requirement. It's called the US Constitution. If that's not fucking binding them, what the hell does your little agreement mean?
Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said the party agreed on three main goals:
° Require warrants in some cases and ICE coordination with state and local law enforcement
° Create a code of conduct and enforce it
° Require agents to wear body cams and not masks
