This comes just after the president publicly demanded that ICE should start showing the public how terrible the people are who they're grabbing and arresting.

In this case, his name is Liam. He's five years old.

Ice needs to be abolished
This is Liam Ramos. The five year old that ICE took from a Minneapolis school and sent BY HIMSELF WITHOUT HIS FAMILY to a detention facility in Texas. There are monsters among us and they are wearing masks, carrying guns, and work for the US government.

Dear #Apple
Nobody likes change, but change for the sake of change or b/c you don’t have any good, original ideas anymore, is stupid. The new LIQUID GLASS look in the latest update—🙄.
The fact that we pay you tons of $$ for phones made of glass is embarrassing, you don’t need to rub our faces in it

Hey @bambrooklyn.bsky.social the Harvey theater is beautiful but what’s with the new torture chairs in the nosebleed seats? Seeing theater in NYC is usually a pain in the legs for anyone over 5’5” but those little fold-out feet shelves are weirdly awful.

Watched the first ep of #StarTrek #StarfleetAcademy
While it’s too early to really know, this seems like Trek’s finally going in the right direction. TBH I was ready to hate the show (hate DIS & THE BURN & 30th century starships) & I won’t enjoy the teen angst but the spirit seems to be coming back

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Book a solid hour of shop talk to find actionable solutions to your specific challenges. For example, some folks are requesting a top-down Patreon analysis. For others, it's a Kickstarter pre-flight. Some just want straight talk about their craft. bradguigar.substack.com/p/comics-con...

This is what comes from Star Trek ditching sci fi stories of scientific exploration & philosophical questions in favor of militarism & dumb action & 3 wars & 5 movies abt revenge by terror attack w/ new weapons.
Musk is 1 of those fans who think Trek is battleships & phaser rifles.
It’s Trek’s fault
"We want to make Star Trek real," said Elon Musk.

"We want to make Starfleet Academy real so that it's not always science fiction, but one day the science fiction turns to science fact."

"At schools, volunteers are forming human chains as students and employees enter and leave, with whistles to blow if ICE shows up.

Volunteers—many of them moms already involved at their schools—divvy up tasks, such as delivering groceries to immigrant families..."

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

A handy-dandy guide, esp when TNG, DS9 & VOY eps & flix intertwined.
I’d add a couple of WARNINGS:
First, watch whatever however you want, but I would rethink watching DIS/PROD/LD/SNW before the 60s-90s shows. The new shows (sometimes heavily) reference the older shows, & kind of spoil some things
