I want these fuckers prosecuted. I will not vote for a candidate who shies away from this.
A teenage boy was walking home in Minneapolis yesterday when four masked men jumped out of a van & questioned him - with no parent or guardian present.

He was bundled into the van & taken away.

Bystanders heard the boy say: “Can I just go home?”

I don’t know how America comes back from all this.

Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

I'm just finished 2 of 4 meetings today, not including therapy after work, and I already need one of those fluffy cat caves to crawl into. Help.

I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.

I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

The thing I don't get about DoD painting a plane as civilian and committing a war crime is why.

Did they think that the fishing boat was going to have sophisticated radio and sonar, and think the plane was civilian so they didn't fire their anti-aircraft missiles at it?

No. They just like crimes.

I'm sitting within sight of the Swannanoa, may she not flood my office with 12' of water ever again, but I live closer to the French Broad.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003

when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

A major error in the past was hyping up fascists not just as cruel and evil but efficient competent.

Mussolini didn't make the trains run on time as it turns out.

Hitler was a paranoid amphetamine addict who didn't come to work until noon.

More knowing this history would be beneficial now.

Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."
