#BestOf2025, by @sandywestreporter.bsky.social : Attorneys and family preservation and child welfare advocates are increasingly alarmed that many women in vulnerable situations are at risk of losing their children to a privately run shadow foster and adoption system.
The Adoption Trap
Private foster care and adoption agencies in Texas are brokering contracts for moms to turn over their children in a murky legal world, spawning protracted civil custody battles.

And it's not just seniors. There will be the same devastating impact for disabled people. The staffing crisis is the same.
The caregiving industry could not survive without immigrants. But a third of the staff at one Miami nursing home lost their jobs after the Trump administration ended the programs letting them work legally.

Not to be controversial but I think we should use tools and resources to make people's lives less miserable instead of more

Doctors interviewed 21 deported mothers. More than half said ICE never asked if they had children before deporting them, leaving babies and young children behind in the U.S.

I’m glad so many people have found my “capybara method” for how to write alt text and image descriptions helpful! However, I know conflicting access needs exist and not everyone can write their own #AltText, so here’s an ongoing thread of tools that can help. Inclusion in thread ≠ endorsement

"Unlike many of Flock’s cameras, which are designed to capture license plates as people drive by, Flock’s Condor cameras are pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras designed to record and track people, not vehicles. "
SCOOP: Flock left at least 60 of its AI-powered, people-tracking surveillance cameras exposed and livestreaming to the open internet. We tracked ourselves. The exposure highlights the power of these cameras and types of things they're tracking. Not just cars.

My heart goes out to all the trans kids who lose their family after coming out, or who's parents mourn a child than never actually existed. But this post is a good reminder that there are people out there who will love you for YOU. Not some fucked up expectation of you. Chosen family is important.

Reading is thinking, and afterwards, writing is thinking. Doing an "AI" summary eliminates thinking in both steps.

A doc told me some of her colleagues are using "AI" to write their case notes. Her take: oh hell no, because writing the case notes is when you think about the case.

"I know they killed him"

Lucía Pedro Juan was detained with her husband, Francisco Gaspar Cristóbal Andrés, on Sept. 1. She was held for almost 3 months in Camp East Montana. She was deported to Guatemala. Her husband died on Dec. 3.

I traveled to speak with her for the El Paso Times.
Exclusive: She survived ICE custody; her husband died during detention
Guatemalan widow shared a hug, a tickle and these words with her husband: "Cheer up." It was the last time she saw him alive while they were in ICE custody.

“The Supreme Court decided not to have a Christmas party for 12 straight years because the justices couldn’t agree on whether to invite the Court’s Black employees” is about as tidy an encapsulation of the Supreme Court’s whole deal as I can think of
The Alarmingly Racist History of the Supreme Court’s Canceled 1947 Christmas Party
The Court held its first-ever office Christmas party in 1946. The following year, the clerks suggested inviting Black employees. It did not go over well.

No document will protect you. All they have to do is take it from you and "lose" it; take it from you and say you never gave it to them; claim it's fake ⬇️; make a new rule that you need ANOTHER document. Citizenship is a made-up status that governments decide the rules for. No one is free until all.
Dulce Consuelo Diaz Morales was born in Maryland. She has a valid U.S. birth certificate, medical and immunization records, and sworn affidavits.

Yet, ICE claims her documents are “not authentic” and has held her in immigration detention for days.

Disabled people do not owe able-bodied people a performance. If you don’t understand how invisible disabilities work, or the millions of ways disabilities can look, that’s something to start educating yourself on asap.

All meaningful forms of resistance boil down to radical love of self and others, even when it’s inconvenient, and stubborn belief that change is possible, even when systems loom large and powerful.

Don’t let the bastards convince you otherwise.
