71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

I remember when Virginia Howlett wrote a whole UX book about how important affordances are in Windows. Two versions later, Microsoft abandoned nearly every single one.

Bold? Try “stupid.”

it’s cool how every major tech company has completely abandoned the idea that user experience should matter

Fall Registration for Race, Media & International Affairs with Karen Attiah — Resistance Study Series A virtual, seven week beginner and intermediate course on the history of race, mass media, and the modern world order.

It is clear that mainstream institutions and media organizations are running away from their mandates to talk about race, society and power.

I decided to build @resistanceschool.bsky.social as a way to work around the cowardice and censorship.

If the Texas National Guard showed up in NYC, I wonder if Mayor Adams would stop putting Gracie Mansion silverware in a duffel bag marked “Stuff I’m Taking” and do something.

I think it should be socially and legally acceptable to smack these clean off somebody's face if they're filming you against your will

Actually it did begin with a parade of tanks

But I thought if you smeared someone and they were then the victim of violence, that meant you had to be fired from your job.

Or does Fox News only think that applies to teachers?

Hey if anyone at CBS ever has any info on the glorious tenure of your new boss that you'd like independent media to know about/cover/etc, Signal is davelevitan.26

What Will Bari Weiss Do to CBS News? A change in leadership at the network has been seen as part of an effort to appease Donald Trump. But there may be other motivations.

Bari Weiss was announced as the editor-in-chief of CBS News at a moment that feels almost existential for the outlet, whose owners have been widely and credibly accused of kowtowing to Trump, Jon Allsop writes.

Yeah, I feel like there are some fairly well-known design patterns that address these problems, but hey…

But I was told it was me

But but but I’ve been told it’s only the at protocol stack that matters, not the users

If I learned one thing working at quickly ascending start-ups it’s that everyone in a leadership position thinks the users love and are rooting for the company as though they also work there

So when users express dissatisfaction the leadership reacts as though this is DEEPLY ungrateful betrayal

4 panel comic Panel 1: A Purple person is standing holding a clipboard. A Blue Person sits at a laptop. Blue Person: Woohoo. I’m the CEO of a social media platform. Panel 2: Purple person: We should hire a PR person to interact with the public Blue Person begins to type on laptop and says: Nope. Gonna do all that myself Panel 3: Purple person looks concerned and says: Really…but… Panel 4: Purple person: You’re such a whiny little fucking baby

U.S. Rep.-elect Adelita Grijalva won her election two weeks ago. Republicans refuse to seat her in Congress.

Fair

ChatGPT was shamed by your list, but Grok kind of liked it

You must not insult the AI

just don’t create a moderation list, bluesky said that’s bad

I enjoy how people with lists called "leftist pigs who deserve helicopter rides" are ignored so the devs can focus on what's *really* important, defending digital cancer

I go back and forth. Why? I have no fucking idea.

Great news for Bari Weiss! A scoop about a new CBS head of news who wrote a note to staff that looks exactly like what ChatGPT might use. A Pulitzer's in the... wait what's that I'm hearing?

Switching now to a TRO hearing in the lawsuit below, alleging suppression of 1st Amendment rights at Broadview's ICE facility.

US District Judge Sara Ellis in a hearing over ICE protests in Chicago:

"I can't tell you how many judges have been doxxed. I can't tell you how many judges have received death threats. … It's unfortunately part of the cost of doing business as a public servant in government."

Here’s the CBS News report about ICE making bogus 911 calls and filing false police reports in Chicago.
