A few months ago, ICE hired me

I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable

And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

Our dear friend Anne died on Christmas of ovarian cancer, leaving her wife Valerie and their son Bobby. This family matters so much to me. They got to know us after Bobby was diagnosed with Down syndrome before he was born, and our families remain close. Help if you can. Just a repost helps.

That heaviness you feel after events like yesterday is real. We've all accumulated a lot of mental and emotional weight in the first year of Trump's disastrous presidency. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-physic...
The physical weight of Trumpism
That heaviness you feel, that drag on your mental health, that drain on your emotional energy and lethargy in the face of world events, like yesterday, is real.

Even if having “pronouns in her bio” were a bad thing, the shooter wasn’t looking at her bio, he was looking at her FUCKING FACE. DID SHE HAVE PRONOUNS ON HER FUCKING FACE, YOU NAZI FUCK?
Jesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"

The videos are crystal clear for any adult who is unwilling to lie through their teeth:

ICE murdered that woman when she presented no credible threat to them. She did not drive at them. She did not compromise their safety.

That was a summary execution of a U.S. citizen.

It's very clear from the commentary exploding on the timeline right now that hardly anyone outside Chicago knows ICE shot and killed a man in his car here in the fall.

It's probably not your fault—too much news.

But if you're choosing to jump in & *report* today, please contextualize. Thanks.

I’m sure the Nazi pedophiles on X are totally open to counter narratives.
Cabinet Office Minister Baroness Anderson tells the Lords the Government will keep on using X.

"I still believe that X is an appropriate platform to use because I believe in freedom of speech..."

"It is incredibly important that there is a counter narrative on those platforms," she says.

The vaccine autism thing is bullshit but even if you believed it, it seems incredibly fucked up to then believe that raising child death rates is some sort of worthwhile trade-off to reduce autism rates

Men are using Grok to undress women and children on Twitter. When asked to stop, their response has largely been to tell women it’s their own fault for posting photos (à la “what was she wearing?”). Elno is aware and refuses to stop it because, well, he likes it. We need regulation of AI yesterday.
