Hunting ground, you say? 🤔

Ha, that road to hell sounds like a doozie, I sure would hate to be on that road, gosh. Hey, why are we in this handbasket anyways?

The classic 'Is this a pigeon' meme where the man wearing a red and white coat represents the GOP, the butterfly is 'people carrying the Constitution to the White House' and the question being asked is 'Is this a hate-America rally?' The answer is, of course, that the GOP knows that power comes from the consent of the governed, and we do not consent. They are afraid and projecting their own fears and insecurities onto the people they're desperate to control.

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.

A master class from MIT in responding to authoritarian overreach:

Your “premise … is inconsistent with our core belief that scientific funding should be based on scientific merit alone.
… America’s leadership in science & innovation depends on independent thinking & open competition for excellence.

tbh I think Microsoft is going to blink right before October 14, and if they don’t… well, that’s a very, very bad decision on their part.

Come to think, I’m not sure they’ve gotten around to asking forgiveness either 🤔

For a minute I thought “tools” in “A lot of these tools only seem good to people who are not great at their jobs” referred to the people hyping AI, and it made just as much sense.

This isn’t just explicit antisemitism (which it is), it’s a continuation of the Christian nationalist cooption of Jewish history, ritual & trauma for their own supersessionist purposes—
