ICE and CBP, among others, have violently retaliated against ICE Watch in part because the agencies correctly understand what many do not: Organized neighbors are mounting an effective defense, and an organized movement is a formidable adversary. My new feature: newrepublic.com/article/2042...
Inside Chicago’s Neighborhood ICE Resistance
Residents have organized a formidable network to protect immigrant communities from Trump’s brutal deportation program. Their efforts are making a genuine difference.

I really think it's too late. He never should have been in the oval office. We have the Electoral College to blame for this. Frankly that EC never should have been adopted. A national voting system where every vote counts + a news media restraint from predicting outcomes before the closing the polls

Today I learned about 'model collapse' and wow, am I cheering it on
…because gen AI relies on an internet that is human-generated. If AI draws from AI data, it runs into a problem that’s now being called model collapse. The best knowledge currently available says that model collapse *will* kill the current generation of chatbots, we just don’t know when.

Disability and poverty go hand in hand.
Anyone can become disabled at any time
It’s not a moral failing. It’s not something you can “try harder” your way out of, and it’s an expensive existence
You are much closer to being sick and unhoused than you are to being rich & secure

This is remarkable. Four giant dams on the Klamath River along the CA-Oregon border were taken down last year. This year, salmon migrated all the way to the river headwaters, a 300-mile journey from the Pacific to central Oregon, for the first time since 1909. A fantastic success.
