Have we really become so woke that we’re no longer comfortable with ICE shooting unarmed women and yelling “fuck you bitch” as they die?

Here is a (likely incomplete) list of apps that are enabling ICE to track your smartphone's location.

I think it's a bad sign that every major news media outlet has spent days asking whether or not murder is bad and how much child porn is an okay amount

“What’s the easiest job in the Army? Yours. Funny thing is, it works no matter who I’m talking to.”
the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

crazy that this is happening in a country which a) bans social media for u16s and b) blocks access to The Pirate Bay
Elon Musk's X is currently mass-producing deepfake images of women and children.

The federal government — which says it's "committed to restricting access to nudify tools" — has no plans to stop its 7 figure X annual advertising spend or using it as a major comms platform
The Australian government is spending millions supporting Elon Musk's deepfake porn factory, X
A spokesperson for the prime minister says the government is committed to protecting Australians from online harms. Tell that to the Australian victims of X-produced image-based abuse.

feels a bit on the nose to be outside on my phone looking through the adelaide festival’s annual report while ash from the bushfires falls on the screen but hey

writers love a simile
a man in a suit and tie is talking about writers who use subtext and they 're all cowards

🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

Oh sorry, I haven’t been online that much tonight, I’ve been forced to help organize a safety patrol at my kid’s daycare, because ICE stopped by today.

This is what your family members voted for but you don’t bring it up at Christmas

This is what you’ve been kowtowing to

This is what you’ve been trying to placate

This is what you’ve been trying to blame the most vulnerable for

This is what you’re yearning to meet halfway

Homeland Security is demonstrably lying, which we know thanks to the bravery of the protesters who filmed the whole thing.

The wheels turned away.

ICE shot her in the face multiple times, in broad daylight, anyway.

Someone who claims to have witnessed the incident says
- car was blocking ice
- they told them to move
- "something happened'
- ICE shot into the car as it was driving away
- passenger got out of the car covered away and said friend was dead

There is video and I have seen it

one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it
