A man is comes to the US fleeing war, makes his life here, becomes a citizen. Years pass, and armed paramilitary troops bash in his door and haul him, nearly naked, out of this house and into the freezing cold. For no good reason. Maybe, just maybe, it's ICE who are the "worst of the worst"

This is why *everyone* should be in a union. If you’re not in one, organize. Collective bargaining and action is the ONLY way we secure and keep our rights.

Reminder: it was recently reported that ICE slashed officer training from five months to 47 days to flatter Trump’s ego as the 47th president. Recruits showed up without full vetting, with criminal records, failed drug tests, not meeting basic standards.

/4 Trump and ICE and the rest of the fascist scum can murder and lie and oppress, but they can’t kill that decency that some real Americans have. They don’t have it, they are inadequate without it, and it infuriates them. But they can’t kill it.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

That lack of a national childcare program, meanwhile, is why immigrant women now play such a big role in the US childcare industry. Because, without substantial public investment, childcare can't be both affordable and decently compensated. So, that underpaid work falls to those most vulnerable. 8/

And so, as we find ourselves in a new daycare panic, I'm worried for the childcare providers who will be vilified and for the parents (especially moms) who will end up having to fill in the resulting gaps in childcare. And I'm furious that we're letting the GOP run this tired play yet again. 9/

Again I say that we gotta find a way to make this specific thing turbo illegal
there have been multiple stories of middle school girls getting harassed with generated CP of themselves over the past few years and somehow the only AI fear that seems to stick is the fucking water

if i was more conspiratorial i'd think it's a psyop
It’s the most powerful online sexual harassment tool ever invented and it’s driving people insane with parasocial relationships but the most prominent critics lie about water use.

People not in the US routinely downplay the degree to which law enforcement in this country is willing to kill us.

In grad school I referenced this analysis that found that cops in the US kill more people than "criminals" do in other countries. And that's routine.

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

Listen others have noted that this study is flawed, but hey, so many people right now are living in their own horrible, shitheaded realities, let me live in the one where eating SHARP CHEDDAR leaves me with a SHARP MIND.
"A new study has found that eating 50g or more of high-fat cheese a day correlates with a lower risk of developing dementia. That means all cheeses with more than 20 percent fat content, including brie, gouda, cheddar, parmesan, gruyere, and mozzarella." www.sciencealert.com/cheese-linke...

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along
There is no national security logic that would impel the US to want to do regime change in Venezuela. It's simply not that important. I'm not even sure wag the dog is the right metaphor for what's happening here. Seems like an insane misallocation of US national security assets and attention.
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."
