Why Are Plans for This Alabama Data Center So Hush-Hush? Officials in Bessemer, Alabama, are mum on Project Marvel, a proposed data center the size of 18 Walmart Supercenters.

It's thanks to the work of independent journalists and activists that we do know just how much ICE is terrorizing this country

The vast majority of the country has no idea how out of control ICE is right now. Yes, there's reporting on ICE raids and protests, but most people are not seeing photos and videos of horrific incidents like this, or the apartment building raid.

If most people did know they'd be horrified.

We need EVERYONE to start making their empathy and understanding and love for our unhoused neighbors infinitely louder than these loser nimby fucks

lots of people know Łink from what he did to promote alt text usage here. this tip about pretending you’re describing an image over the phone has been burned in my brain since i saw it

I agree. You might enjoy this article I just read, the thesis is very close to your post above.

Those could work! I'm looking at chefs joggers rn (a fellow chronic pain haver suggested) and that seems to be a selling point for comfort

They were able to do this because they have strong unions. In many places outside of the English-speaking world, liberation movements are something connected to the lives of working people, not just online subcultures and academic niches.

This was a great read, and includes a helpful rundown of why the AT Proto isn't actually decentralized

As it starts to get colder I'm dreading having to switch over to layers and pants. Looking for recommendations for staying warm with nerve pain (causes skin sensitivity) and chronic hip/low back pain

I don't want to be in sweatpants all the time but leggings and jeans can be so painful #ChronicPain

It is very difficult to have a positive relationship with one's body when one's body is so medically chaotic that people who don't understand your illness get mad at you for being flaky, when it's like...I'm just trying to stay out of the ER today, I'm so sorry.

Part of actually standing up for immigrants in our country is fighting the Republican dehumanization that undocumented immigrants are less worthy of health and well-being simply because of their legal status.

Massachusetts family says ICE misidentified father, will not release him A father from Lowell has been held in ICE facilities around the country since his arrest.

“Via video call, Palacio-Morales showed WBZ the wristband he has worn since being taken into custody [by ICE]. He says it has the date of birth and name of an individual that is not him.”

It's not lost on me that the majority of the folks doing ICE watch stuff in my area of Massachusetts are women, two of whom stopped an abduction with their presence over the weekend. In spite of all the risks, people *are* fighting to protect their neighbors and that should give us hope.

Standing up to ICE in the suburbs, the People’s Patrol puts its faith in resistance Cristóbal Cavazos leads a rapid-response effort to document ICE activity. Meet the man confronting Trump’s deportation blitz.

Generally speaking, I have found that people who work in medicine and high profile public health do not follow Covid anywhere nearly as closely as those of us directly impacted by mass government abandonment do. And this is what happens.

Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez is the victim's name

The deployment of ICE agents in downtown Chicago today reminded me of the flash marches that neo-Nazi groups carry out when they all pile out of vans and march around for a bit to make propaganda videos, then quickly leave. Except these assholes have the force of law and kidnapped people.

What the Trump regime doesn’t want you to know about Dallas ICE shooting The Trump regime's refusal to say the names of the Dallas ICE victims exposes the inhumanity of American fascism.

This is the secret the Trump regime tried so hard to keep about the Dallas ICE shooting

Antifascists actually do exist

Hey this won't fix our problems or anything but can we all agree to pronounce it Anti-fa and not AnTEEFa, because it seems like the second pronunciation has taken hold and it's the wrong one

Cruising crackdown in Penn Station bathroom puts at least 20 men in ICE custody State and city laws prohibit local police departments from turning people over to ICE. That restriction does not apply to the federally run Amtrak Police Department.

What might not occur to you upon reading this headline is that, in other words, ICE is targeting gay men of color

Every queer press org should be picking up this story

Heavily-armed masked paramilitary attacking & detaining unarmed civilians is political violence.

The thing about being neurodivergent is that I Like It. What I don’t like is that the world imposes numerous taxes on me for being like this.

I don’t view it as a Me problem.

Saw someone post about how it's really fucked up that we all have to speculate about whether or not the FBI manufactured evidence to back their version of events. The thing is, you should always suspect that about law enforcement—these guys are just more clown-ish and obvious about it.
