Three people in frog costumes are seen outside the Portland ice facility

Three people in frog costumes are seen outside the Portland ice facility

There’s now an entire frog brigade outside the ICE facility.

Peacefully protesting fascism while bringing whimsy to the streets.

The whimsy and silliness directly contradict Trump & Miller who want you to believe it’s a war zone.

Protect the frogs!

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Having a handle with β€œmyatproto.social” vs. β€œblacksky.app” does nothing to limit my ability to participate in this platform, and only confirms what anyone could have safely assumed from my profile photo.

I disagree with the notion that any marginalized community creating their own space is β€œsegregation.”

But that’s not even what this is.
I’m a non-Black user who’s migrated to a Blacksky server. I’m not allowed to use a blacksky.app handle, which is a completely reasonable condition.

Rudy Fraser created an online space for people not looking to have their social media presence obliterated by the whims of Bluesky mods. That’s not β€œracial segregation.”
We’ve been invited to his house and told to help ourselves to what’s in the fridge, but we’re objecting to our handles?

If you're in Illinois and facing criminal charges from protesting ICE, or if you were attacked by ICE or law enforcement supporting them, I might be able to represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

CBS News will now be a megaphone for the country's most vicious crusader against free speech, and the most relentless propagandist of far-right disinformation.

Cancel Paramount Plus, call every CBS advertiser until their only remaining ads are for MyPillow and Daily Stormer.

Covid is not a joke. Millions have died and even more have been disabled.

The vast majority of Americans can’t access paxlovid.

Many can’t even afford the most basic medical care should they become ill.

Yet these extraordinarily wealthy & privileged men joke about the virus.

Shameful.

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again.

These two gotta go.
