Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility By Marcela Rodrigues Globe Staff,Updated October 12, 2025, 44 minutes ago 31 A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia. A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia. A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo. The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview. “My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese. From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett. The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Perhaps the world *is* a broken simulation.

For weeks, Mr. Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who is married to a U.S. citizen, has made clear that he would not challenge his deportation if he were sent to Costa Rica, which has promised him legal residency and guaranteed that he would not be sent back to El Salvador. But the Trump administration has refused to deport him to Costa Rica, and in an earlier hearing this week, Judge Xinis pressed the administration to consider the option or clarify why it was unacceptable.

So Kilmer Abrego-Garcia will not challenge a deportation to Costa Rica, who has agreed to for him residency, but DHS won’t agree to send him there because it’s not cruel enough.

Notice how bystanders start whistling the moment the Gestapo leave the car--a warning to the vulnerable and a call to action for those ready to exercise their rights to record government agents, protest said agents, and petition the government for redress (in person!).

The deportation order is based on Vedam’s conviction for murder—a crime he did not actually commit and for which he’s now been wholly exonerated. He entered the US at 9 months old and was a legal permanent resident before his conviction. We are so, so, so far from the light of justice.

one single step that would do a lot to improve reputation of LLMs would be for Google to abandon AI Mode like they do with all of their other products

There are a lot of things I would do to get Canadian citizenship too.

Every scammer knows that fear makes you irrational and likelier to turn off your judgment.

Fucking elitist ankle. Stupid gatekeeping lower back.

Be careful out there.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

This made me so happy

developer: put it down. we don't need another one

concept artist: (clutching tighter) no. this is my emotional support sky whale

*chuckling nervously after every market crash close, wondering if this will be It*

(unsecured roof tent flying by my head) tactical gear is my passion

We're not even a third of the way through kinktober, for crying out loud!

to be clear i would be much less stressed out if we actually existed in the world where LLMs were glorified markov chains/autocomplete and we understood exactly how they worked

The kids are calling it Nurgleposting.

It’s just example # 486 of “reasonable nuanced critique of liberalism gets flattened to meaninglessness through a game of telephone”. Cogent critiques of aspects of respectability politics get turned into “it makes you a brave revolutionary to be the biggest asshole possible to everyone”

My WMD slop doesn't perform well in real world conditions because it's been overfitted to pass all the popular mortality benchmarks.

Vibe warfare. WMD slop. Mortality benchmaxxing.

Considering wearing my Starfleet uniform so nobody takes me seriously

people who want other people to stay in sad little grey boxes forever and never be happy in their bodies or desires are villains and cowards and they may be winning right now but by god they will lose as water smooths stone and roots break it, because that fierce joy is roots and water and life
