A clear acrylic display case is mounted on a white wall, filled with hundreds of colorful novelty erasers and small trinkets. The items are meticulously arranged into five horizontal bands of blue, pink, and white to form the Transgender Flag. This vibrant, kitschy collage uses a dense collection of nostalgic miniature objects—like animals, hearts, and figurines—to create a powerful symbol of identity.
‘Protect the Children’ is a collection of children’s erasers in an acrylic case arranged into the transgender flag and playing out different stories.

They want us to blame immigrants and people just trying to make ends meet, or obsess on things like gender, because it's easier to pick our pockets when we're fighting each other.
The billionaires want us fighting each other instead of banding together.

The DJI Romo robovac had security so poor, this man remotely accessed thousands of them
DJI may have fixed it now.
One man's remote experiment got him access to the live camera and audio feeds from over 6000 home-cleaning devices across the globe. This issue has been resolved, but we can't stress it enough- exercise extreme caution with smart devices or ditch them altogether. www.theverge.com/tech/879088/...

Los Angeles Police Department Encourages School
Attendance Amid Recent Downtown Activity
Los Angeles: In light of recent activity in the downtown area, the Los Angeles Police Department would like to take this opportunity to remind parents and students of the importance of staying in school.
School attendance is mandatory in the City of Los Angeles and there may be legal consequences for parents and students for:
• Day time Curfew violations - It is unlawful for any minors under 18 to be in public places, streets, or amusement spots during school hours (typically 8:30 am
to 1:30 pm. The only exception includes being with a parent, authorized school activities, or emergencies.
• California Education Code violations:
• Mandates that all children between the ages of six and eighteen, unless exempted, must attend a full-time public day school for the full designated school day.
• Middle and high school students are legally permitted one excused absence per calendar year to participate in a "civic or political event," provided advance school notification (emphasis added).
• Additionally, Los Angeles Unified School District policy states that three or more unexcused absences or tardies of 30 minutes or more, can trigger a School Attendance Review Board (SARB) intervention for disciplinary action.
Parents and students are also reminded that presence at school promotes intellectual growth. It becomes more difficult to fill knowledge gaps with student absences. Attendance builds good habits and healthy routines; and provides structure and stability. Lastly, school attendance also increases student safety, which includes safety resources provided by the Los Angeles Unified School District.

X Follow @LAPDHQ
Any adult that collects or picks up a child and transports them to participate in any illegal activities may be responsible for Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor and is subject to arrest and prosecution. This law applies to actions like providing drugs/alcohol to minors, promoting truancy, and for parents failing to exercise reasonable supervision.
Community members, parents, and students may contact their local Community Police Station of the Los Angeles Police Department for additional guidance specific to their community.
The LAPD is citing truancy laws in an attempt to squash the ongoing school walkouts against ICE. The LAPD is also threatening to arrest any parents or adults who support the kids in their acts of civil disobedience.

It would help if GW was more loudly anti-Trump now. Guess he’s too busy off painting puppies to stan for the “faith-based” values he claimed to espouse during his tenure. He could at least chime in as anti-pedo and still be a welcome voice. 🤷🏼♂️

Global Heating Will Hit Socially Vulnerable U.S. Communities First and Hardest
TNC-led study stresses urgency of directing climate adaptation funding to the places that need it most.
New research shows socially vulnerable U.S. communities are already facing temperatures ~1.6°C (3°F) hotter than other areas, and the gap is growing as the planet warms. Extreme heat isn’t hitting everyone equally.

La. regulators approve Entergy power plants for Meta’s AI data center
Louisiana Public Service Commissioners voted four to one to approve Entergy’s three new gas plants to power Meta’s largest-ever data center.
Louisiana has to build three new natural gas power plants to accommodate the "AI" data center that Meta just crammed through because said center will use *Three Times* as much electricity (and, thus, attendant resources) as the *Entire City Of New Orleans*, every year.
Y'all this isn't sustainable.
