The real Lord of the Flies: what happened when six boys were shipwrecked for 15 months When a group of schoolboys were marooned on an island in 1965, it turned out very differently to William Golding’s bestseller, writes Rutger Bregman

This image comes to mind every time I learn about some new AI tech. Globalization, and the global inequality, is just the real world version of a green screen.

among other things, Trump freed this guy, and gave his toxic celebrity a new lease on life.

We're seeing the same thing here in Maine. People unable to buy groceries or pay for rent because they don't dare leave their homes. Mutual aid and non-profits are jumping in, volunteers are ready, but there's just so much need. My heart breaks and is full of rage at the same time.

Amateur hour in Minneapolis continues, even with Bovino out of the picture.

This is indicative of a broader issue with Trump’s mass deportation push; officers aren’t doing even basic investigations (to figure out things like β€œis this address a consulate”) as pressure to keep up arrests is so high.

Perry: Abolish ICE? How about DHS altogether. "We have models for how to structure federal immigration oversight that doesn't rely on an unaccountable masked secret police force running rampant in our streets," David M. Perry writes.

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)

If you thought that All Cops are Bastards was hyperbole, they've got Fish & Wildlife cops out there using billy clubs to protect the fascist death squads from people.

(1) As I re-read β€œ1492: A New World View” I am reminded of Wynter’s insistence that the enactment of classificatory schemas have very tightly entwined motivators:

The reporting I've seen from @startribune.com over the last few days is a great endorsement of the need for quality local journalism, which is suffering from fiscal setbacks across the country.

Yall outside of MN need to know that observers are STILL out protecting their neighbors. Right now. They know the news and they’re still out there.

The 37-year-old man murdered by DHS today in Minneapolis was named Alex Jeffrey Pretti.

He was a nurse so had attended the University of Minnesota.

The amount of money that is currently going to fund immigration enforcement in the US is larger than the military budgets of every country in the world other than the US and China. We are witnessing a military assault on American cities by a wildly unpopular governing party.
