soldiers are mostly young people who want to do something else with most of their life. They generally don't want to live the rest of their lives with the knowledge that they executed an unarmed mom

Civilians in combat zones become combatants in combat zones when you murder their family.

Those of you who still insist on drawing a distinction between ICE and police should be aware that the police are not drawing that distinction.
Thank you for telling us you neither serve nor protect. Thank you for saying the quiet part out loud. That was state murder in broad daylight, captured from multiple angles by multiple witnesses, and the people of Minneapolis have eyes.
You support murder.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how the greediest, most soulless people have created online spaces that gleefully amplify all the worst people to push racist, bigoted, ignorant conspiracies, and how that led us to the government we have today.

Did record rainfall end Washington’s drought? Unfortunately, no. We got rain when we really needed snow, leaving snowpack at about 31% of normal. We'll need winter weather ahead to build up our "snow bank". Read more about what this means for our water supply in WA: ecology.wa.gov/blog/january...

Honestly, how could any nation even feel safe sending their athletes to the United States, a place where there is no guarantee that those athletes wouldn’t be kidnapped by roving gangs of masked jackbooted thugs, disappeared to a blacksite, and shipped like cargo to a country they’ve never been to?
The world must boycott the World Cup and the Olympics.
It is both the only moral choice and will actually get the attention of these dead-eyed clout demons.

I don't recall off hand who made the point about AI being, more than anything else, a machine for displacing responsibility. That increasingly looks like its most reliable feature
This is a thread of major media outlets falsely anthropomorphising the "Grok" chatbot program and in doing so, actively and directly removing responsibility and accountability from individual people working at X who created a child pornography generator (Elon Musk, Nikita Bier etc)

RFK Jr is directly responsible for the deaths of 83 children in American Samoa from measles because he told them to stop vaccinating. Now, he's trying to kill trans kids. He's a fucking psychopath.
HHS is trying to force Seattle Children's into doing a Sophie's choice of abandoning trans youth or see kids with cancer or other serious illness have their coverage and care disrupted. That's what this is about.
Hopefully, the courts put a quick stop to this like the subpoenas.
