I like that we call AI fuckups "hallucinations" rather than "piece of shit technology delivers stupid fucking results"

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

ICE spent $800K on vans with stingray tech that collects data from all nearby phones, even yours. These devices mimic cell towers to track locations and intercept communications. Oversight and transparency are needed now.

Is America great again yet?

A missing autistic kid has been found in ICE custody. He was kidnapped by them when he went to the bathroom while helping his family sell fruit. Gestapo - I mean, ICE - agents didn't notify his family that they'd taken him.

i think it is fair to request a statement from @jay.bsky.team on TRANS PEOPLE and where we fit in on @bsky.app.

and so, the question, am i not a person as a trans girl and do i not deserve to feel safe here?
