The number of children in ICE detention on a given day has skyrocketed, jumping more than sixfold since the start of the second Trump administration. We analyzed data obtained by the Deportation Data Project and found that ICE held around 170 children on an average day under Trump.

You know things are crummy when even the text spam/scam folks are using offers of jobs and friendship as bait.

Death of man detained in El Paso ICE facility is ruled a homicide: the county medical examiner said the man, Geraldo Lunas Campos, was asphyxiated and restrained by law enforcement. Fed officials had cited medical distress then later called his death a suicide.

Bah, search is so shitty and consumerist. Looking for a recipe and not only is it buried, but buried under ads, sponsored content that’s really an ad, shitty AI, and influencer content clearly written by AI. (“…it’s not THIS, not THIS or THIS. It’s THIS”) Fuck this to the moon and back. Honestly.

I visited this place and its small, lovely congregation of folks many years ago out on book tour. Really sorry to see this, and some of the miserable, hateful comments about it today 💔

I work w a lot of folks in Italy and here’s a pro-tip:

When signing an email to a person in Italy this time of year, it is VERY IMPORTANT to remember that in “Buon Anno,” there are two n's in "anno."

I may or may not have just wished someone "buon ano" which means "good anus" 😂

Just because today is Festivus, doesn’t mean the day needs to try so hard to hand out additional grievances to be aired.

I’m in the habit of waking up w an idea and jotting it down or emailing it to myself and sometimes it’s great what my brain gives me but other times I have no fucking idea what I meant by things like “unique idea for zine” or “nailbed as parallel to revolutionary women”
