every tech company suddenly decided that what their users *really* want is to spend all their time interacting with a cramped chatbox in the bottom right corner of the screen with very low information density

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.
"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”"

"“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"
A St. Paul resident says federal officers knocked on her door and asked her to identify Hmong and Asian households in her North End neighborhood last week.

Something folks can do in the coming weeks is to organize Ice Watch Training in your communities. There's an excellent resource that can help you to do this: docs.google.com/document/d/1... - Get five people together in person or virtually and get skilled up together.

In November 2025, Border Patrol announced it would be coming to Charlotte, North Carolina. We only had a few days’ notice. Just like in Chicago and Los Angeles, they weren’t coming to “keep the peace....

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

In college I dated a guy who was into wrestling and in an effort to understand it better, I read Mick Foley's biography. He struck me as an amazingly principled compassionate sportsman, willing to literally put himself on the line for his career and the advancement of the craft.

This tracks.
Mick Foley has parted ways from the WWE because of their close ties with Trump.

One of my all-time favorite clips of Rob Reiner, from his Friars Club Roast in 2000, as he reads aloud Roger Ebert's infamous scathing review of his movie North. The man had an amazing sense of humor about himself. RIP.
