Anti-choice extremists in Indiana are trying to force the release of records for the very few legal abortions in the state (146 in 2024). The purpose is to intimidate patients and providers and expose them to harassment, arrests, and violence.
Anti-Abortion Groups Try a New Intimidation Tactic: Make Abortion Records Public

If you are too young to remember Surya, she was a fucking ICON. The only person in history to do a BACKFLIP with a SPLIT ON THE AIR, which she’d land ON ONE FOOT
Of course she wasn’t properly appreciated in her time because racism.

Kick ICE out of cities; revoke their permits, shut down their concentration camps, arrest ICE officers who break the law, inspect their facilities, document what has happened, and abolish ICE. Defund is not enough. Primary or impeach or fire politicians like Schumer and Jeffries.

Arizona gets more sun than almost anywhere in America. We should be the solar energy capital. Renewable energy like solar means lower energy bills and more good-paying jobs, but Trump is gutting these investments.

It seems like fract gives you an 'ai analysis' button you can click when visiting profiles, that attempts to sum up a user's posts. It's unclear to me how much data they retain.
Yes — you’re talking to a human 🙂
“AI-powered” in FRACT means AI assists with context and structure (e.g. organizing ideas, clarifying references).
It doesn’t post, rank content, profile users, or drive engagement.

You should read this. It is the type of detail that experts in authoritarian regimes see as telling.
In this case, state agents are offered impunity from higher ups, and the legal system is rendered inoperative as a mode of accountability.

This; I haven't seen (or read) the movie Salò (based on a de Sade novel) yet, but it sounds like a similar kind of portrait of the behavior of the rich at Epstein's island - doing crimes _because_ they can get away with them and to one-up each other in shock and offense, only it's all...
The eeriest part of the Epstein files to me is how the entire sordid affair feels like a natural extension of consuming the Ortolan. It's myriad wealthy men who chase what would be heinous, cheap thrills if they didn't carry a cost of millions, and damn the crimes they must commit to achieve them.
What the Epstein files reveal more than anything is a gilded elite who believe the rules and laws don't apply to them.
