"They aren't supposed to be there for more than 12 hours. They're being held for days or weeks at a time. We need to get it shut down." Kat Abughazaleh is thrown to the ground by ICE officers at the Broadview ICE facility in Illinois on September 19. (WBBM)

She nailed it.

Dr. Monarez: “Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were inconsistent with my oath of office and the ethics required of a public official. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the science...He said, ‘If I was unwilling to do both, I should resign.’”

Threatening war against a state of the Union is treason. Full stop.

Supreme Court formally asked to overturn landmark same-sex marriage ruling 10 years after the Supreme Court extended marriage rights to all same-sex couples, it will consider whether to take a case asking it to overturn the decision.

This case lays out the crux of the right's beliefs: that America is their special club, for them only. In fact, the Constitution's main thrust is the elimination of such from government, and this is treasonous reasoning, full stop.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

golf is just pool for dickheads. yeah I wanna have a few beers while trying to put a little ball in a little hole but I need 500 acres instead of 20 square feet.

DriveThruRPG delisted a tabletop game about revolutions over “hateful” politics Rebel Scum's censorship reveals the limits of Roll20's apolitical guidelines.

This is the weakest imaginable shit. Roll20 and DriveThru should be ashamed of themselves. And so should the greater RPG hobby if this is left to stand. www.rascal.news/drivethrurpg...

I’m horrified by the murder of two Israeli embassy staffers at an event in DC last night.

The fact that the gunman said he did it to “free Palestine” makes me nauseous. Murdering people for their nationality is never acceptable and this violence hurts Jews, Israelis, *and* Palestinians.

So which day / stage is the Pope playing at Riot Fest this year?

it's important this go as viral as the original story for morale purposes if nothing else. despite the image they project these people are NOT unaccountable. consequences CAN be forced. focused anger and outrage MATTERS.

Although I Voted for You to Be Turned into Soup, There’s No Reason We Can’t Be Friends Before You Are Liquefied A small percentage of my friends, coworkers, and loved ones may soon join the ranks alongside other hot liquids I slurp for nourishment. But there’...

"You have crudely reduced me to 'the man who will eat me,' which is unfair. When I see you, I see Frank from accounting, my best friend in the firm, a proud single father of two beautiful girls, and yes, someone who could potentially be made into soup."

Senator Schumer Votes to Let the Big Wooden Horse into Troy “In the wake of votes by a handful of key Democrats, led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, to pass a GOP-led continuing resolution funding f...

"My brethren, soldiers may leap out of that statue tonight and kill me, but what’s leaping out at me right now is our total disregard for norms. What you see as an enemy threat, I see as a one-of-a-kind statue of a mare."

Look, folks, this is it. The entire ballgame. Either we're a Republic of laws & the Constitution, or we have a dictator. This is fascism, & the impeachment vote should be happening today. Every single university president in the country should be out, in front of microphones, condemning this.

In vast areas of the US, the sentiments expressed in this wonderful letter from a British man about why it's a privilege to pay tax to enable the National Health Service to run would see him probably certified as insane and labelled a "socialist".

YouTube video by NBC Chicago Gov. Pritzker SLAMS Trump and Musk in closing remarks of State of the State address

If you need a pick-me-up this morning, go listen to what IL Gov. Pritzker said yesterday. Glad he’s not bending the knee.

democrats won’t admit it, but my family’s economic outlook has gotten a LOT better since Trump took office. but what do i know? i don’t have a fancy economics degree, i’m just a regular guy who runs an airplane scrapyard

Me sowing: Move fast, break things!

Me reaping: Oh no, everything is broken.

Bay area is trying to take over the title of best retirement communities from South Florida, huh?

This really has a different vibe given we just watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you.

Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

Don't ever use AI, even (and especially) as a joke to show how AI is terrible.

Valheim is a perfect example of this. It sent me on a survival game kick for the last year and a half, but nothing matches the feeling of being in the wild like it does, and that's mainly due to light, wind, and sound feeling incredibly real and reactive.
