🚨The Supreme Court today gives Trump a license to engage in racial profiling, with Justice Kavanaugh writing in concurrence to expressly endorse ICE and Border Patrol targeting any Latinos they observe in Los Angeles speaking Spanish and then demanding their papers.
Here, those circumstances include: that there is an extremely high number and percentage of illegal immigrants in the Los Angeles area; that those individuals tend to gather in certain locations to seek daily work; that those individuals often work in certain kinds of jobs, such as day labor, landscaping, agriculture, and construction, that do not require paperwork and are therefore especially attractive to illegal immigrants; and that many of those illegally in the Los Angeles area come from Mexico or Central America and do not speak much English. Cf. Brignoni-Ponce, 422 U.S., at 884-885 (listing "[a]ny number of factors" that contribute to reasonable suspicion of illegal presence). To be clear, apparent ethnicity alone cannot furnish reasonable suspicion; under this Court's case law regarding immigration stops, however, it can be a KAVANAUGH, J., concurring "relevant factor" when considered along with other salient factors. Id., at 887. Under this Court's precedents, not to mention common sense, those circumstances taken together can constitute at least reasonable suspicion of illegal presence in the United States. Importantly, reasonable suspicion means only that immigration officers may briefly stop the individual and inquire about immigration status. If the person is a U.S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter. Only if the person is illegally in the United States may the stop lead to further immigration proceedings.

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional

ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

Today’s study material while I work this cat-sitting gig. I’m up to 700 words on Burnt Rubber and flailing at the physics of it all.
The two Transformers books in the foreground are James Roberts’ Chaos Theory script book and IDW’s collected Drift graphic novel, Origins and Empires. In the background a fluffy grey and white cat drinks from a kitty fountain.

I have so much I could say on this but I can’t get my words right so just read the article
“This matters because children are themselves a vulnerable group, with few individual rights, and little autonomy. Isolating children is dangerous, particularly for children who lack resources and support at home. Even in less dire circumstances, kids learn about how to be a person by participating in these same spaces where they are increasingly unwelcome. When we treat dislike for vulnerable humans as a personality quirk, a temperament issue, or worse, insist it’s about accessibility, we set the stage for a society that abdicates its duty to care for the next generation. When we insist this is about “accessibility,” we neatly elide the truth that many of the children who are considered most disruptive in public are neurodivergent themselves. Accessibility never means banning vulnerable groups from public life”

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

Masked raids are tools of fear, not freedom. Despite what this administration wants you to believe, they are not about “safety.” They are about letting ICE agents hide from accountability while carrying out inhumane acts.

The Miccosukee Tribe helped stop Alligator Alcatraz, being constructed on their land!

Late yesterday, a federal judge ruled Miccosukee citizens must be able to “access to the site consistent with the access they enjoyed before the erection of the detention camp.”

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.

While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

The argument against regulation is always the same: “It stifles growth and jobs.”

But just as tax cuts for corporations have not trickled down, regulatory cuts have not benefited most people.

Big companies enjoy bigger profits. Working people bear the costs.
