NEW: Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani said Thursday he will not continue sweeps of homeless encampments — which city data shows have not yielded any permanent or supportive-housing referrals in more than a year.

California's new portal lets residents snitch on ICE agents pulling warrantless raids and fake kidnappings, because even feds aren't above the Constitution in this state. #Immigration

Genuinely so grateful that I got laid off by their Office of Communications when I did.
Giving the world Dinesh D'Souza and Laura Ingraham is no longer the worst thing Dartmouth has ever done.
My employer, Dartmouth College, today boasts it's 1st Ivy "to launch AI at an institutional scale." It is doing this by partnering--"more than a collaboration"--with Anthropic, a company that stole the books of many faculty, me included, which many of us are suing.

Many of you may have heard that trans girls are now banned from Girlguiding in the United Kingdom, their version of the Girl Scouts as we know them in the United States.

It is a cruel new low in a country that has treated trans people horrifically in recent years.

The latest from S. Baum.

I've got friends and family still dealing with trauma from their experiences with involuntary care growing up. Often young people turn to substance use in an attempt to cope or escape from high-control households. "Strengthening access to involuntary care" means empowering their abusers.
Premier Eby will have announcement tmrw about "strengthening access to involuntary care for young people."

CMHA: "lack of evidence to support effectiveness of involuntary treatment for substance use disorder... evidence suggests it leads to an increased risk of death..."

As of Monday, Trump has fired over 100 immigration judges, essentially on suspicion of them being judges, as opposed to sure-thing compliant cogs in the mass deportation machine

Trump Has Never Been Clearer About What an Immigration Judge’s Real Job Is
The president doesn’t want immigration judges who handle cases by the book. He wants immigration judges who will rubber-stamp his mass deportations agenda.

One of the most sinister things about the psychiatric industrial complex is how easily a person labeled as a trusted professional can cover up real abuses just by adding the phrase, “lacks insight into the severity of their own illness,” to a patient’s medical records.

Hey, it's Giving Tuesday, so I'm once again asking that if you follow me on here, you give a couple bucks to @ppponline.org if you can. They really do some of the most important work imaginable, and especially as we settle into winter they need our support.

It’s unreal that we take children from their families and pay strangers to care for them, when the majority of removals are due to poverty in the first place
I'd add that in a humane system, the financial assistance we give to foster parents should also be available to bio-family.

Often $$$ is a huge hurdle for extended relatives, adult siblings, and yes, even parents to overcome in providing a safe and stable home.
