The mass deportation of 13-14 million people has impacts on millions and millions more people, either millions of their loved ones who are US citizens or millions more coworkers, friends, and associates.

This is like a really long shot…but was your dad there with a fun Jesuit seismologist? Fr. Henry B? I think he was there 13 months around 58

The surface of Jupiter, with its color enhanced to better show the detail of its surface features. A swirling interaction between lighter and darker bands. Where the light and dark bands meet, there are bright spirals and ovals.

That's not an abstract painting, it's Jupiter's surface! As a gas giant planet, Jupiter has no solid surface. It's just one big atmosphere. This color-enhanced image from the Juno probe shows the turbulent and dynamic surface of Jupiter's bands and storms in vivid detail. (1/3)

OpenAI's Hardware Device Just Leaked, and You Will Cringe A team of over 200 employees at OpenAI has been working on a smart speaker that features a built-in camera to analyze its surroundings.

This is extra funny to me because I made this exact same thing with a raspberry pi, a Logitech webcam, and a conference room telephone and it cost less than $300. And I’ve never used it.

COVID-19 vaccination status during pregnancy and preeclampsia risk: the pandemic-era cohort of the INTERCOVID consortium COVID-19 vaccination with a booster reduces the odds of PE by 30% approaching 60% reduction among women with pre-existing morbidities.

Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?

Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.

And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.

I'm told that some leftist bro on another site claimed that Millennials and Gen Z hardly use public libraries anymore. Based on what data? NO DATA.

In actuality, a survey from 2022 found that 54% of Gen Z & Millennials had visited a physical public library in the past year.

When you put it like this, a $75 million bribe to Melania and gutting the Washington Post seems like a small price to pay.

If this sounds like you, email me at denise@dreamwidth.org and tell me that you would potentially be interested! I can confirm, it is VERY emotionally satisfying to be able to yell at a court about unconstitutional bullshit a state is pulling and know the state has to read it.

In search of fighty bastards (affectionate): do you live in SC, are you a user of DW (or any other social media), and would you be willing to tell the court how what sites like us would have to do to comply with SC's terrible law would restrict your speech and association with others?

I rarely recommend CNN, but this upcoming doc for The Whole Story on 2/22 is important. Pamela Brown interviewed cult leader Doug Wilson, & this is the follow up where she interviews survivors of the Christian Reconstructionist Mvmt (Heritage Foundation is CR) www.instagram.com/reels/DU1jag...

Politicians saying β€œJudeo-Christian” is like bridge and tunnel types saying they're from "New York-New Jersey." If you’re using it, we know you actually just mean the second thing

This guy with Ivana and Ivanka Trump

I keep scrolling and he also has photos with tons of random celebrities which honestly most of them look like they were at a party or event or something- and some look like older photos that he was just posting on insta- so like take those with a grain of salt imo. Although this one seemed notable.

Katyal: "I was able to go to court - the son of immigrants-- & say on behalf of small businesses, 'Hey, this president is acting illegally.' I was able to present my case, have them ask really hard questions, & at the end of it they voted & we won. That is something extraordinary about this country"

"We owe conspiracy theorists a huge apology"

No we fucking don't. They were talking about a secret conspiracy of gay trans Jewish lizard people. The Epstein files uncovered a conspiracy of rich, straight, white, right-wing Christian men, which these motherfuckers never even considered.

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court.

Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business.

As well as everyone else who stepped up.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there
