For every horrific act of fascist abuse you’ve seen video of in recent months, there are hundreds that you’ll never even hear about.
A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A.
ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why.
A judge has ordered his immediate release.

So apparently, it may turn out that The Wizard of Oz at the Las Vegas Sphere wasn’t entirely made in AI and Google threw the VFX crew under the bus by claiming it was all done by artificial intelligence.
If true, then fucking yikes.

For a union leader to be leaning into an AI partnership is absolutely shameful. AI steals from us to replace us. It is extremely biased, lies, and is a challenge to student learning, critical thinking skills, and futures.

New in PN: Trump gutted the weather service. Then Texas flooded.
"It might seem obvious that a botched disaster would implicate Trump. And yet, for some 50 years, Republicans have been trying to convince people that government only harms and never helps."

to call this a crime against humanity is true but inadequate — it’s a crime against all creation
The Trump administration said that it would open up 58 million acres of back country in national forests to road construction and development, removing protections that had been in place for a quarter century.
Trump Administration to End Protections for 58 Million Acres of National Forests

Authoritarians want you to feel isolated and alone, to feel like their vision of the world is the only one.
That’s why taking part in public protests matters. You connect with other people like you and you show those numbers off to the world. It’s a great feeling. Try it!
