This is the second account - the first being in Chicago - of DHS agents mass detaining people and then *sorting them by race*.

Didn’t he also have the saddest sex video? All on brand

The guru of the AI apocalypse Eliezer Yudkowsky is confusing a very human obsession with death and a very modern fear of a techno-deity

I wrote about Yudkowsky here btw, and if you'd like to know more about him I'd highly recommend Elizabeth Sandifer's Neoreaction: a Basilisk and Adam Becker's More Everything Forever.

They're Coming for Our Daughters The conservative plan to shrink girls’ futures

The Heritage Foundation has released a 250-year roadmap to “save America.”

The document is a how-to guide for subjugating girls & young women: a detailed plan to push them out of college, funnel them into early marriage and motherhood, and then trap them there.

Goldman to Lyons: "You said in your opening statement that references to ICE as 'the Gestapo' or 'secret police' encourages threats against ICE agents. The problem is you have it backwards. People are simply making valid observations about your tactics, which are un-American and outright fascist."

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

After years of waiting, she wanted to start gender-affirming care. Politics interfered. Medicaid patients can’t use their insurance at Planned Parenthood, unless their state covers it. This is a major setback for trans health care.

At 36, Star just took her first step toward gender-affirming care. She looked for Planned Parenthood clinics near her Ohio town.

But when she looked online, her heart sank. Medicaid patients like her can’t use their insurance at Planned Parenthood anymore, unless their state covers it.

GEORGE MILLER: In this movie, Furiosa will get a boyfriend

ME: 😡😡😡😡😡

The high wouldn’t last. Seahawks safety Julian Love soon intercepted a throw from New England quarterback Drake Maye, and the Patriots never recovered. In the end, Kane lost a bit less than $100,000 in bets that favored the Patriots. “What are you gonna do about it? You get very numb to these kinds of numbers,” said Kane, who works out of his one-bedroom apartment in Philadelphia.

In the future we're gonna look back at online gambling and prediction markets in the same way we look now at cigarettes on airplanes and lead-based paint

Thrilled to see everyone calling for resignations and finally demanding the Epstein conspirators, enablers, and the rest be punished for their roles in ALL of this...
But what happens when none of the resignations happen? When they are no consequences for any of these people?

Thrilled to see that Eric J. Goulet is NOT running for the Democratic At-Large seat. For starters, he's not a Democrat...not my any stretch of the imagination.
NOT thrilled to see he's going to continue to 'represent' ward 3 on the SBOE.
He simply refuses to do the job now so why re-up?

I feel like y'all have already had some legislative wins??? YES???

Final song was "DtMF" as I YET AGAIN correctly predicted should I go buy a lottery ticket or something???

A song about appreciating the people in your life while you still have them, it resonates on a personal level and calls back to the themes of diaspora

I'm not crying you're crying

Benito and Los Pleneros

The guys behind him in the flat hats are Los Pleneros de la Cresta, a teaching ensemble working to keep traditional plena music alive on the island

They were an integral part of the residency last summer and are on tour with him this year

Benito carrying a football with musicians carrying flags behind him

Iconic moment as he says "God Bless América" and then names every country in South, Central, and North america in order

For the rest of the hemisphere, América doesn't mean the U.S.

It means evveeerrybody

Backup dancers pretend to fall from electrical poles

Next is "El Apagón" (the blackout) which I could write a whole thread about on its own

The song and its video (a mini documentary) are about a lot of things, including the problems with Puerto Rico's electrical grid, which have gotten worse since Hurricane Maria

DtMF cover

Another great detail, the chairs echo the cover of his latest album

These chairs are so commonly seen all over the island

The fact that they're empty represents all the people who have been forced to leave their homes because of gentrification and other problems

Peep the LIGHT BLUE Puerto Rican flag in the window

The flag with the light blue triangle represents the Puerto Rican independence movement

For many years it was illegal to display on the island

(Lots more light blue flags forthcoming in this performance)

Two men dancing inside the open door of a truck

Omg this is so good I missed this! VERY intentional shot lingering on two men grinding on each other

Throughout his career Benito has been an ally to the LGBTQ community and has tried to push back against the machismo prevalent in Latin music
