An LAPD helicopter claimed to have ID'ed protesters from above and threatened to "come to your house."
The threat was greeted with extreme concern by civil liberties and digital privacy groups. It suggests the LAPD could be using facial recognition to identify and retaliate against protesters.

The practice, an expert warns, could lead to "reprisals and retribution by the police for your politics.”

I hadn’t quite realized it until it was front and center in national US politics (my own privilege, naïveté perhaps) but I now see how many men especially on the right see a woman divorcing a man as worse than domestic violence

you and I are on the same side about wanting people to consume porn (and other things!!) in a more healthy manor.
but the “porn is addictive” narrative is specifically right-wing propaganda. It does not address the real issues, and villainizes an industry that advocates for better sex education.

The experts, lawyers, and scholars who I’ve been speaking with since last night agree with me that it’s a coup and that this a 5-alarm fire.
This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

I oversaw global health programs at @USAID.
They reached 100s of millions of people, added 6 extra years to the lifespan of children in partner countries, and were eradicating health threats worldwide.
What insanity and cruelty to break that.
