This is happening right here, in Louisiana. With overwhelming support from people with “Preaux Life” bumper stickers.

Pregnant women describe miscarrying and bleeding out while in ICE custody, advocates say

The ACLU and other groups are pressing for ICE to identify and release all pregnant women in custody and to stop detaining anyone known to be pregnant, postpartum or nursing.

I agree that live service games are different from conventional games, but this definition is too specific. So many classic games are excluded, and it ignores what makes live service different.

Dear International Criminal Court -- it's time to issue an arrest warrant.

Trump is murdering people in international waters.
Trump is commiting crimes against humanity daily.

Dear world:

Trump is a murderer, a rapist, a pedophile.

No country should allow Trump entry.

Watch this.

Open your eyes to this brutality.

ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.

Now share this.

Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.

You have power.

Even sharing this video exerts that power.

It's not lost on me that the part of the White House we are destroying is the part that has to do with women's history in the White House.

I don't understand how this is even legal. Isn't the White House an historic building? And aren't such buildings subject to regulations?

HEY lovelies, here are my slides from last Friday's guest lecture at the University of Oslo's media and communications department!

Will record a voice over version soon for y'all

Demand induced by fabricated necessity
Impossible to boycott by design and conspiracy
Directly helps fossil fuel companies, so closely intertwined
Marketing creates a false sense of utility
Climate, environment, financial costs are burdened onto those already screwed over by capitalism
Hard to stop once it gets going

My son uses his to set up yard work appointments with local kids who come by when he's not home ... so It's not all bad 🤷‍♀️

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.

Petro objected to the US bombing a Columbian fishing vessel that had the emergency beacon on because they were broken down, that we subsequently bombed. One Columbian fisherman survived the attack.

This is the official US response to Petro's comments.

When Sam Altman talks about a 1GW AI data centre:

1GW over a month, released instantly, would be an 850 kiloton explosion.

A 1GW AI data centre uses as much energy as detonating ten 1-megaton H-bombs a year.

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...

Second "No Kings Day" protests likely the largest single-day political demonstration since 1970, with 4.2-7.6 million participants

BREAKING from PP

We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens*

The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied:

Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer

More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado

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...

WHOA. The AP reports that in the latest strike on a boat alleged to be carrying drug smugglers (which has never been proven), there were actually survivors, and they've been rescued.

The Pentagon has yet to formally acknowledge they have survivors in custody.
