He’s a 15 year old autistic boy who went missing 4 weeks ago. Houston PD found him, contacted ICE & his Mom is fighting to get him back
She’s not allowed to visit him.
They’re keeping a disabled kid from his family & the media is largely silent

New from 404 Media: you can't refuse to be scanned by ICE's new facial recognition app, according to internal DHS document I obtained. Photos captured by the app are stored for 15 years, including U.S. citizens. We've seen officers scanning faces w/ phones on streets

a print of a naughty crow stepping through a wheat field with a golden sun in its beak. There are skulls below the ground it walks on.
the other new print in my shop is actually a smaller, giclée version of an original linoprint that loads of people have asked me to reprint: "crow steals the sun". Limited to 15 signed copies & hand-finished with gold paint 👀

This is a longstanding, thoroughly disproven lie.
Vance is carving out a little niche for himself as the guy who tells vicious, racist lies about non-white people to massage the egos of white nationalists. And the *specific* lies he tells reveal he’s well versed in white nationalist propaganda.
Guys, stop with all the pessimism about the economy. It’s doing great. You can tell because UPS, Amazon, and Target are all planning to lay off thousands of people right before the largest shopping and shipping holiday of the year.

Ichthyosaur fossil showing a long pointed snout with many small teeth and a large eye with bony plates photographed in a museum.
#FossilFriday: the fossil 'crocodile' (ichthyosaur) skull found one autumn day 214 years ago between Lyme Regis and Charmouth in Dorset by Mary Anning's brother, Joseph. Although similar fossils had long been known to occur at Lyme and elsewhere, this was the first to be scientifically described.

Might anyone know of modern / contemporary artists whose work centers on the sun, light, and the solstice? I'm thinking of Nancy Holt's Sun Tunnels, Emily Sheffer's Winter Solstice cyanotype project, etc...
