Rori!

Endangered Species of the Philippines 🇵🇭

They are not De-escalating! We had a Neighbor abducted at 6:30 in the morning yesterday we had two observers detained and another maced at 7:30 AM this morning, blocks from an elementary school. And then we had the same fuckers three or four of them all hanging out in the same spot all morning.

This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D.

Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate."

Not just any journalist, she won the goddamn Triple Crown of broadcast journalism (an Emmy, a Peabody, and a Murrow) in 2024 for her reporting on Gaza.

This is textbook censorship of the highest degree

To be fair, if I made the difference between 706 people surviving Titanic and zero, I'd have a lot of swagger too.

Picture of Captain Arthur Rostron of the Carpathia, year credited as 1912, but may be earlier. A dashingly posed white man in an Edwardian-Era maritime officer's uniform and hat.

Researching Titanic has had me find so many Daguerreotype Boyfriends and Girlfriends! Just look at this old pic of Arthur Rostrum, there are so many of these for the sailors, something about being at sea must've helped in the "dashing pose" dept.

Well he may STILL, tee hee! 😏

What a gift, his full name is Harry Hole, after all our nonsense, Norway is still there for us.

This looks like another promising labeler: bsky.app/profile/lept...

So, transfers from jail or prison to ICE have doubled what they were before. These are arrests no one even sees. There's no video to document. Street arrests used to be rare, but obviously now they are more common.

In an Irish context this was called ‘felon setting’; a favourite tactic of Dublin Castle to punish via RIC/DMP visits to employers & landlords. But after #EasterRising Irish Times eagerly leaped to print detailed lists leaked to them, not realising how this would soon be a roll of honour #spéirgorm

Let's be clear about what's happening here: this is an escalation in unconstitutional federal repression of Minnesotans for exercising their rights.

Cowardly federal agents are hiding from the cameras for a reason: what they're doing is utterly shameful.

It does. I also subscribe to the "Reactionary Resisters" and "A Very British Bigotry" mute lists and a bunch of bot/aggregator mute lists and I feel like together they catch so much of it.

Yes, the "no porn" thing is super weird, I was just talking about that a few weeks ago, it seems part of their starter bio pack of slogans and emojis, haha

And the official. You should definitely be using this to at least curate your adult imagery settings, for all our sanity. bsky.app/profile/mode...

Another great moderation service: bsky.app/profile/mode...

(selecting "warn" also allows you to pre-emptively block malicious accts when you see them in your TL)

I cannot recommend Skywatch Blue enough: bsky.app/profile/skyw...

whatever you want to hide or see is your choice. I generally choose "warn" for most things so I can see any friends' posts even if they get scooped up in wide net.

There may be exceptions, but accounts that are like "Resistance Grandma" with a bunch of slogans in their bio and high follow and follower count should always warrant suspicion. I have them on a mute list and it's greatly reduced the flow of misinfo & ragebait.

The aggregation of 22 separate federal agencies, most of which had nothing to do with each other, into DHS was the second most corrosive post-9/11 action taken (after the passing of the PATRIOT Act) and I will die on that hill

I forgot the link. days are hard lately:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

I tie ICE and police violence together because they are. Even though there were some attempts at prosecution, the list of killings by police in Minnesota alone (ones famous enough to get a wiki page) show clear parallels to the violations of ICE. We will not ALL be safe until both are dismantled.

Night raids are what killed Amir Locke.

a few of the many Acceptable Reasons You Can Be Executed BY AUTHORITIES, ON OR OFF DUTY According to Local, State, and Federal US Governments: [LIST WITH ILLUSTRATIONS] holding cell phone holding hands up driving having a gun with a permit being in the way trying to leave ABOLISH ICE | DISBAND DHS | END QUALIFIED IMMUNITY DEFUND AND DEMILITARIZE THE POLICE | PROSECUTE Anything less than dismantling an abusive and easily abusable system will only enable it to return worse in the future. A BETTER WORLD IS POSSIBLE AND NECESSARY

ICE has killed 9 folks in the first 26 days of ‘26:

• Alex Pretti
• Renee Good
• Keith Porter
• Heber Sanchaz Domínguez
• Victor Manuel Diaz
• Parady La
• Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz
• Luis Gustavo Nunez Caceres
• Geraldo Lunas Campos

They all deserve justice. And for us to remember their names.

Uh. So ICE just technically tried to invade Ecuador. Cool new international incident dropping.

ICE Agents Are ‘Doxing’ Themselves The alleged risks of being publicly identified have not stopped DHS  and ICE employees from creating profiles on LinkedIn, even as Kristi Noem threatens to treat revealing agents’ identities as a crim...

Previously, @regret.bsky.social analyzed ICE List data and found that its primary source of information on ICE agents was ... what ICE agents have posted on the internet:

The "Large boulder the size of a small boulder" meme. The Facebook post is from 27th January 2020

Today is "Large boulder the size of a small boulder" day!

kinda feel like more people should know that illegally entering the US, under what the law actually says, is supposed to carry about the same penalties as a speeding ticket

I reached out to Raygun to confirm if they were told directly that ICE was expected in Des Moines today.

Response from their owner, Mike Draper:

Here’s How Many ICE and CBP Agents Allegedly Preyed on Children Apparently the institutions are riddled with accused sex criminals.

ICE & U.S. Customs & Border Protection employed at least 30 people with sexual & violent criminal histories in recent years.

At least 20 agents committed offenses with underage victims. The bulk of abuse happened within the last two years.

This article includes names of the agents.
