Incredible* to see the Times assert that apparently a woman hurting a man's feelings means he should be able to kill her.

(*completely expected)
The Times was right behind Trump in his first term, cheering him on and denouncing his opponents as elitist leftist swine who hate the working man, right up until that torchlit Nazi march where that fascist killed that girl. Then it all went sotto voce. No such concerns, this time.

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

Pastor: I saw ICE agents circling a young woman who appeared to be Hispanic. I said, 'Take me, stop harassing her.' The next thing I knew, they put handcuffs on me and put me in the back of an SUV. I asked if I was under arrest. They said to me, 'Well, you're white, you won't be any fun anyway.'

Right. The point is not “it matters extra because it’s a citizen,” the point is “we either hang together or we will all hang separately.”
i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me"

you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist
The murdered woman's glove compartment is filled with stuffed animals.

THUCYDIDES: In my book I described the Sicilian Expedition where you invade a basically random and sort of distant country to try to loot it as a cautionary tale

DIPSHITS: At long last, we have done the Sicilian Expedition from the classic of military history Don't Do The Sicilian Expedition
THUCYDIDES: In my book I invented the Melian Dialogue as a cautionary tale

DIPSHITS TALKING ABOUT IR WHO WANT TO SOUND SMART: At long last, we have done the Melian Dialogue from the classic book Don't Do the Melian Dialogue
The Melian Dialogue has a similar role to the Clausewitz quote about “politics by other means” - it exists to give a bit of frisson and even sexual pleasure to morons who have never read those quotes in context but who are still desperate to sound smart.

It's almost difficult to communicate to people who've never worked in the industry how nearly useless Venezuelan oil is.

Everyone claiming that is why this is happening (on all sides!) is either deeply stupid or just lying.

This an outright lie.

one of the dumbest parts of this is the idea that oil producers actually want their holdings in venezeula back, which they do not. it’s a war for oil no one really wants.

ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

love starting a carol with "god rest ye merry gentlemen, let nothing ye dismay", it's the equivalent of starting a phone call with "okay so it's all fine, DON'T freak out"

i was especially struck by these paragraphs, which rang very true to me. libs who grew up around conservatives aren't embarrassed to be liberals--or confused about what conservatives want. there's a certain kind of elite media man, on the other hand--

now imagine using ai to do signature strikes with a reaper
“The officer went to where students were hiding in the band room. He found the culprit — a student wearing a military costume for a themed dress-up day — and the ‘suspected weapon’: a clarinet.”
A school locked down after AI flagged a gun. It was a clarinet.
A growing number of schools across the country use AI-powered surveillance to detect guns and contraband, all in the name of making schools safer.

Here in Kansas people said about KS SB 180 "oh there is no way it'll pass"

It passed and now I am legally banned from ANY gendered restroom, so uh, at this point I might not trust people's assessments about which bills are "never going to pass"
This is possibly the most significant attack on trans rights in this country yet, and I can count the number of posts on my timeline about this on my hands.

If you're trying to dismiss this thinking "It'll die in the senate," DON'T! Sound the alarms now!
Bluesky tonight is neatly divided between trans people and family members appropriately angry and freaking out and everyone else who has barely noticed.
