Under a new bill introduced in California’s legislature this week, ICE-Gestapo killers would be banned from working in California law as well as inside the public school system.
Hell yes, I’m all for it, now expand that to all industries.

Just a reminder that if Trump's policies had been in effect in the past, there would be no Apple (Steve Jobs is the son of Syrian immigrants), no Google (Sergei Brin immigrated from the USSR), and no WhatsApp (Jan Koum immigrated from Ukraine).

The experience of switching phones and moving your accounts and data over properly, especially for not super technical users, is still abysmal. This should be much, much easier.

It doesn't matter what the Constitution says. If the government can execute you on the street or in your own home on a whim, you have no rights. None.

Superb idea from @mon4kooyong.bsky.social
“When it comes to climate hazards, people act faster when they immediately grasp what’s at risk. Declaring a
Category 4 ‘Heatwave Santos’ or ‘Heatwave Woodside’ would be more salient than communicating a ‘temperature
spike’."

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.
There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.
This is my favorite guide.

We should re-conceptualise what "bipartisan support" means in Australia. It does not mean "sensible compromise reaching across the political aisle", if it ever did. Today, it typically means "the establishment has united to fuck the rest of us".
