Don't be dumb about Covid.

Is this the precursor to the opening salvo of shots across the bow that signal a willingness to cross a red line into uncharted territory where new escalations hurtle matters toward an ultimate boundary test that will surely pose a real threat of unprecedented steps from which there is no going back

Bari Weiss & CBS pulled the plug on 60 Minutes CECOT special just hours before it was scheduled to air.

Men who had been sent there risked their lives to tell their stories, and they’ve been silenced by the regime.

This article by The Guardian shines light on the torture & abuse they suffered:
Venezuelans sent by Trump to El Salvador endured systematic torture, report finds
Human rights groups accuse Trump officials of complicity and draw comparison with scandal at Abu Ghraib prison

3. Leadership is about doing what is necessary, not just what is popular. Read literally anything our founders wrote about virtue, and the inherent risks to a society based on democratic processes to sustain the rule of law to the extent that unvirtuous people gain power.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

There's something very inflection point about watching all the prestige institutions whose opinion once mattered a lot to people systematically embarrass themselves to the point of losing all credibility and ending their own influence

An absolute horrific nightmare of two AI bots caught in a loop with each other is the perfect example of the total nothingness of AI “brains”.

Ask yourself if kids prefer toys, or stores. Games from a generation ago were allowed to be toys. Games today are forced to be stores.

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.
More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

I hope someone draws this wonderful story about Tom Stoppard's Arcadia and the power of the arts to help us see things differently, to the attention of our Education Secretary. Do read it, it will lift your spirits.

Sometimes I imagine what it would have been like had we adapted to Covid instead of giving up.

If we had clean air in public spaces.
Respirators in healthcare.
Free masks for those who need them.
Better tests & treatment.
Paid time off.

We would all be healthier.

Goodbye Tom Stoppard. "Until there's no time left. That's what time means."

Imagine calmly writing a piece of news like, "The man stated that since he left after stabbing the victim and was not there to be arrested for stabbing someone, it was not illegal and therefore the laws that prevent people from stabbing each other cannot be enforced."

This messed me up so badly that I can still hear the endlessly looping menu themes of games I could never spend more than a few hours *actually* playing
No, I 100% agree that computer RPGs these days have too much handholding. I, too, yearn for the days of being able to spend hours crafting my perfect build from hundreds of available options, only to discover that it mathematically cannot survive the mandatory rat fight portion of the first dungeon.

A mother of 8 was sexually abused by an ICE officer.

She went public with the abuse, and was deported the very next day.

Her lawyer says she had a stay on her deportation order

They disappeared her so she couldn’t speak out.

Silvia Reyna Mendoza deserves justice.

ICE should be abolished.

New rule. If you're going to announce AI was used in a play in your curtain speech, I'm going to walk out right then.

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children

They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!”

This is tyranny

These kids are traumatized

It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

He was found hanging with his hands and feet tied behind him in the “hog tie” position.

Deaths within these camps continue to rise, with more people dying in the last nine months than in the entire previous four years.
