This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.

Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.

They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

This honestly made me laugh. She sounds so dumb. Even she seems bored of the villain role she's playing. "Well, they suck..." lol

Remembering Quintard Taylor: Historian of the Black West and beyond Dr. Quintard Taylor taught history at the University of Washington and created BlackPast.org, an online collection of global Black history. He died Sept. 21, 2025, at the age of 76.

How could a man who never set foot in a library until he was in college create what is considered the most extensive online collection of global Black history?

Maybe it had something to do with the story Dr. Quintard Taylor's father told him when he was a young boy.

@jay.bsky.team so uh, what assurance can you give British users and users from states with online "safety" laws that this won't happen to them?

On this, just remembered that I heard a story once about how an author’s friends got together and gifted her a years salary so that she could write her book without having to worry about money. The author was Harper Lee and the book was To Kill A Mocking Bird.

Look I don't claim to know everything about this current discourse, but the leader of a social media site mocking their user base, which is predominantly made up of people who left another social media site because it's leader sucked, is not a great strategy.

Chatbots work a lot like a search engine, except they generate plain English answers rather than a list of blue links. This can be a quicker, easier and more intuitive way of answering questions, though chatbots often get things wrong and even make stuff up.

Ah if it wasn't for that little thing,

If you don't care about accessibility online, when you eventually need it you are going to be so surprised at how inaccessible it really is.

Important to remember that stories about children killed by vaccine-preventable diseases when they're too young to be vaccinated are, beneath that, stories about the loss of herd immunity.

This baby caught whooping cough from somebody. That somebody was probably old enough to be vaccinated.

ICE’s surveillance capabilities expand under Trump Immigration and Customs Enforcement is rapidly expanding its high-tech surveillance capabilities under President Donald Trump.

The government has obtained tools that permit “indiscriminate and warrantless data collection” that “can absolutely assist ICE in turning law-abiding citizens and protestors into targets of the federal government,” EFF’s Beryl Lipton told @san.com.

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...
