Went to an anarchist book fair yesterday, and it was a great time! Favorite thing I took home was a physical copy of this book by @citizenio.bsky.social & @jonasgoonface.bsky.social

Laugh Riot, an unofficial Batman/Joker comic and love letter to anarchy

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

I'm very sad to say that this event has to be cancelled!

Yesterday, I was among 8 arrested at an action demanding:

- The safe return of Freedom Flotilla members currently being detained in Israeli prisons, including Mskwaasin Agnew

- A two way arms embargo

- Immediate sanctions on Israel

Wen should direct more attention to incidents like these because Americans are more likely to respond to brutality to pets than to brutality to human beings.

EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified.

Great piece; theres compelling character work in bits of Hades 2 but it feels like it's setting up a turn that never comes. It feels like a story written backwards from its mechanics, but in a way that comes out arguably worse than the first one

Miyazaki: in this movie two young girls (one is a toddler) are uprooted from everything they know to start new lives near the rural hospital their mother is in; she is possibly dying of TB. Their dad works several hours away and they are largely unsupervised.

AI Bros: so homey! So comfy!

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

“Far from comprehensive, the list does not include the thousands still buried under the rubble of destroyed buildings, as well as the war’s many indirect victims.”
