For those who don’t know, the FBI became convinced this was a hacker’s manual and raided Steve Jackson Games and the author’s house at gunpoint. SJG sued them with EFF help and won.

Tbh this argument is funny because it’s not like this person said something off color in a breakroom or posted a slur on Facebook. They literally racially harassed a customer, something that really is a firable offense under any employment regulation scheme
I wrote about why we should not celebrate someone losing their job, especially in today’s America, even when they’ve done terrible racist things.

Losing a job should also be harder and involve workers’ bodies not unilateral management decisions.

The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

"Jobs including doctors, nurses and support staff," it says.

They intend to drive up patient wait times to create dissatisfaction with VA, leading veterans to, presumably, call for privatization.

They can't suggest privatization now because veterans love VA. So they intend to turn vets against it.
Exclusive: The Department of Veterans Affairs will abruptly eliminate as many as 35,000 health care positions this month, mostly unfilled jobs.

The cuts come after a massive reorganization effort already resulted in the loss of almost 30,000 employees.
VA plans to abruptly eliminate tens of thousands of health care jobs
Strains on the Veterans Affairs system could grow with the elimination of as many as 35,000 mostly unfilled health care positions, including doctors and nurses.

So this take is spreading around a lot, and I want to put a little caution.

The NDAA is a bill that passes yearly, only applies to this year.

The “definition of sex” applies only to athletics and only to military cadets, so not other athletes.

It is still a bad bill, for many reasons.

115 democrats just voted to establish the first federal statutory definition of sex, which could now be used to

• charge fraud for using documents that misrepresent “sex”
• reverse all federal records gender markers
• sue a future gov’t for attempting to rescind trump’s anti-trans exec orders
As Trump drags us into an Iraq-style war in Venezuela, 312 members of the House — including 115 Democrats — just voted to authorize over $900 billion in military spending.

TIL FEMA flood maps do not account for rainfall-induced flooding. Which is absolutely mind-boggling.
The exclusion of pluvial flooding from FEMA flood maps is a good reason for the shift away from flood maps for flood insurance premium setting in Risk Rating 2.0. These locations might not be mapped into flood zones, but will still see their risk reflected in rising insurance costs.

If you're wondering what happened to Nate Silver, he was into the COVID lab leak theory and got negative feedback online, including from epidemiologists and virologists and (GASP!) posters, which added to his belief that The Woke are victimizing Nate Silver. It spiraled from there.

I'm not kidding.

These guys love the fascism fantasy, being the man in uniform asking people for their papers.

What they haven’t noticed is it’s JUST THEM. There’s no millions-strong SA, no national network of party cadres. Just a few hundred dudes assuming they can safely play-act as jackboots.

Dangerous game.
Bovino, the man overseeing mass deportations, publicly declared that we must all have our papers on us, at all times, or we could be stopped, harassed, kidnapped, and detained, as they did with the man in this case, who is a US citizen.

i am fascinated by how nate silver turns everything he doesn’t like into a bespoke ideology. it’s not that he is annoyed by HCR, it is that she is a dreaded “ism” responsible for everything he doesn’t like about the democratic party. same with bluesky.

In late 2020 a Chinese man called Guan Heng travelled to Xinjiang with our BuzzFeed map of detention facilities to provide ground truth for our work - he provided the first corroborating evidence for many sites.

He escaped to the US - then ICE detained him.

Heng Guan is awaiting an immigration hearing on Monday that could lead to his removal from the U.S. and ultimately land him back in China, according to his lawyer and a New York-based activist group.
