Librarians should be asked to stand to be recognized before sporting events
saw this in a group im in and once again librarians are the fucking S tier class of what it is to be a good human
I like little retail rituals at places I'm a repeat customer.
Like @erikthetall.bsky.social saying "since you can do math" when letting me enter a tip on retail + draft beer or my barber saying "what are we doing with your hairs?"

Good thread.
It's already illegal to beat your wife but we don't put federal agents in their homes
ICE at the polls! Bannon is basically yelling “fire” in a crowded theater here. His objective is to cause chaos (and suppress votes on the left). And it’s already working.

This threat works on multiple levels and doesn’t have to be “real” to serve its purpose.

Let me explain & offer some advice.
Steve Bannon says the federal government is planning to send ICE officers to patrol polling stations during the midterms.

"We're going to have ICE surround the polls come November."

"We're not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The demands other than masks and body cameras are potentially good but the restrictions should be the most important thing
I also get not wanting to hurt the coastguard but you can dismantle the dhs rather than do away with it altogether too

My ex-wife has broadened her dating app search enough that she is asking me about people I went to high school with...
I'm glad she's putting herself out there but there's no one I went to high school with that I would do that to

Are there limitations to recording ICE? What's the deal with ICE and facial recognition tech? How do you protect your privacy while protesting? If you or loved ones are exercising your rights to demand justice, join our ICE and CBP town hall livestream on Thursday at 10 am PT eff.org/livestream-ice
EFF Town Hall: ICE, CBP, and Digital Rights
You see it. We see it. ICE and CBP are out of control. Many people are exercising their right to say it's unacceptable. But what are the limitations around recording immigration agents? Is it true

This is bleak
"I’m here because I’m trying to make sure that the agency understands how important it is to comply with all the court orders."
ICE attorney to judge: ‘This job sucks’
A federal judge admonished DHS for repeatedly defying court orders to release detainees, as government lawyers described widespread noncompliance during Minnesota’s immigration crackdown.

I have a coworker that experiences deadline pressure differently than anyone I've known and he's annoyingly making it my problem.
Changing stuff at 5:30 on a Tuesday evening that will be a pain in the ass to change back instead of waiting to discuss tomorrow because "it's due this week."

I see why they hate Harris. Why they hate Omar. Why they hate James. All of those women make them look weak and worthless. Obliterate any belief that they have any form of superiority by any measure. They aren't as smart as those women. Aren't as charismatic. Aren't even as physically gifted.

I'm in a pickle. I have a small business which while in a liberal leaning neighborhood still forces me to be quiet. However I feel I need to do more to speak up. I just don't know how without alienating some of my current and potential customers. Thoughts?

Nothing improves your mood like believing that a better world is possible
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.

But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

The march is now passing by Trump Tower in Chicago, which sits north across the river.

I want everyone to appreciate how cold out it is: the river surface is frozen over.
