Morale plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports While immigration officers support the Trump administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown ‘disillusioned’ with leadership’s tactics, according to reports

"'We lost all trust,' a current ICE official added. 'I’m not sure I can see how we exist three years from now.'”

If an ICE official can see there being a world without ICE, there's no reason any of us shouldn't be able to do the same thing.

Book cover for The Idiot's Garden on the left; author Kyle E. Miller standing outside in the woods on the right.

Kyle E. Miller's "The Idiot’s Garden" is a poetic postapocalyptic novel. We spoke to the Ypsilanti-based author about his book, which takes place in a time where the oceans have boiled, whales consume power lines, & living things possess abilities beyond our world.

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Remember! If you support trans people in any even vaguely meaningful way, then you hate democracy and America—so proudly show your disdain for this country by putting more money in the hands of evil trannies like me this #bandcampfriday.

Izak Folk rock for artsy, sensitive types.

So, it has come to my attention that it is, yet again, Bandcamp Friday. I’ll let you in on a secret—we’re endearing to convert our basement into a humble home recording studio. You could help us reach that goal by buying some of our music! And then we can afford to put out MORE music, MORE often!

snowy mountain scene with a town and dry field in front of it on a sunny day trees with autumn-colored leaved under a cloudy, blue sky pear tree blossoming in a backyard with a cloud enrobed mountain in the background text reading “I think the purpose of life is to find happiness, to find those few true, enveloping pockets of sunshine that keeps your core warm. It is, quite plainly, essential. Happiness is the substance that melts into your blood and turns it golden. It is the spirit that paints your vision a lively shade and douses your limbs with electricity. You drink it and are overcome with a fullness as it fizzes little ecstasies. Happiness is the one truth worth following. Happiness is the only god of many crawling this earth that is worth praise.”

FUN ALBUM ANNOUNCEMENT POST! In Hunt for the Eternal Vibe will be published on June 27th! While maybe not actually, spiritually this is the first Lantern Lens album to me as it represents what I want my 'main' music to sound like. I'm very proud of what I recorded here and I'm excited to release it!

Considering the continued criminalization of masks, rampant spread of covid & other viruses (amidst erosion of vaccine access), dangerous AQI from wildfires, increasing state surveillance, & persistent use of chemical weapons by cops, now is a great time to commit to masking again if you've stopped.
