ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

i've got a horrible fucking feeling this is the Miller playbook - incite the populous into shooting back by killing a few in broad daylight, maybe a couple deadly false flags against ICE - to justify declaring Martial Law with extreme prejudice.

Most of the witnesses recording the incident were immediately rounded up and taken to the federal building.

Another person has been executed by ICE in Minneapolis, outside a donut shop. Pinned down by 7 or 8 "agents," then another "agent" just pulls out his gun and executes the guy in broad daylight while everybody is recording.

This is what America has become.

& speaking of adverts, i'll never really understand why Duracell decided a CGI bunny with CGI batteries displays their longevity better than an actual battery operated bunny.

One of those Ibrahimović XTB adverts currently doing the rounds makes no sense. It presents 'progress' as a remote controlled car turning into a drone & then, inexplicably, turning into a remote controlled plane. Surely it's car to plane to drone?

This is the reality we’re all dealing with
up now at rolling stone: my report on the perilous state of the touring business for indie acts.

"It was definitely much, much, much more doable just a few years ago. It’s not even about making a profit. It’s about actually being able to do it at all."

Is the Touring Business Broken for Indie Acts?
Artists, agents, and managers say that touring is more expensive than ever, and it's becoming harder for indie artists to make money on the road

I’ve written about the assumption that everyone wants their relationship to public services to be “digitalised” (whilst F2F options stealthily reduced) & that any reticence just requires “overcoming” with greater tech “literacy”, at length, in relation to health www.opendemocracy.net/en/ournhs/wi...
