FAA closes airspace around El Paso, Texas, for 10 days, grounding all flights
The agency says it will ground all flights to and from the airport for "special security reasons."
Since a couple people have asked, I have no idea why El Paso airspace was closed. Working my contacts, a couple theories but nothing to say out loud yet.
If you have insight please contact me on signal at gbrockell.44.

"You need to turn off this feature in Ring"
No you need to get rid of your ring. The best time to do that was a while ago, the second best is now. And I say this as someone with a door camera (we've had some issues), there are other options that do not have cloud storage or connect to the internet.

I live in a red state, and Ive met so many republicans that were raised with their party (like religion), but the party made more promises and supported blue collar workers (whether lying or not), while dems/liberals dehumanized everyone else.
I'm not excusing the republicans that DO support trump, but I can now see the economic hardships, lack of education, and specific propaganda they unleash on the working class. Thats why the poorest states are all red.
Look at how biden fcked up tiktok. trump was the one that introduced the bill to ban tiktok, it died in the senate because even republicans knew it was a bad plan, and there were too many americans relying on tiktok for their income.
biden then REVIVED it in the senate to protect israel, claiming the youth were seeing too much "antisemitic propaganda" (they were seeing live-feeds of burning and dismembered children) and then republicans got to "save" the app. This gave them a win with their base and poor americans.
Now the app that REPUBLICANS started the ban on is owned and operated by trump/israel allies, and the dems look even more useless than before.
Great job biden :/
Regarding why tiktok is now in the hands of republicans and why the dems looked like utter fools due to the deal (alt text provided):

A Super Bowl Ad Accidentally Showed The Horrific Future of America!
Sinclair Lewis famously wrote, "When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross."
That may be true. But we found out during this weekend's Super Bowl that when mass surveillance comes to America, it will be to help sad puppy dogs.
In the Amazon Ring ad a poor little beautiful sad doggie goes missing. A little white girl cries. A man sobs uncontrollably. Then we find out the dog can be found using the Ring Cam Mass Surveillance Doggie Rescueโข app. The man with Al hair in the ad says,
"One post of the dog's photo in the Ring app starts outdoor cameras looking for a match. [It] then uses Al to help find the lost dog."
This is wonderful! You can find your lost dog! ...Or maybe instead of a lost dog, you can just type into the search box: "Black man in the neighborhood." And then every camera in a ten-mile radius will let you watch that black man (or any black man) to make sure he's not up to something. ...Or you could type in: โcollege girl walking down the street" and then watch her throughout the neighborhood on her entire walk home.
And most importantly, it's unobtrusive! That 20-year-old girl won't know you're watching her. There's no 1910's flash-bulb camera going off. Or even just 15 years ago, when you wanted to track and take photos of an annoyed young lady, you had to follow her around in your van. And even if you were in the bushes dressed as a large bird or something, those little click-and-wind cameras they sold at Walmart always alerted her to your presence. It was a disaster, even for the most skilled leering creeper.
But now, with Ring Cam Mass Surveillance Fucking Doggie Rescueโข, you can watch anyone and everyone anywhere in your neighborhood. Or hell, with a little hacking knowledge, you can probably watch anyone near a Ring cam in the nation.
But what if your missing adorable puppy cute puppy dog has hot-wired a car and skipped town? Have no worries! Amazon's Ring has signed a deal with Flock Safety, which has deals with police departments across the country. Flock cameras monitor license plates in many cities using their gigantic surveillance network. And luckily for your adorable driving puppy cute puppy doggie, Flock monitors cars whether the driver has done anything wrong or not. They then share that surveillance with police upon request.
But the nation's 800,000 police officers have promised they will only use Amazon's fun and exciting new panopticon for good, not evil.
Just think of the possibilities of the new Ring Cam Mass Surveillance Doggie Rescue Systemโข:
- Adorable puppy cute puppy dogs will never go missing again.
- Abusive spouses will never be able to abuse a partner in their front yard again.
- Murderers will never be able to easily bury a body in the back yard again.
- Sexy US postal employees will never go un-ogled again.
- Food delivery people will finally be watched as they bend over to place a bag on your front steps.
- Annoying neighbors will finally be filmed as they do annoying nefarious things like sit on their porch and eat an apple.
- Folks can watch teenagers for fun or profit.
- Squirrels.
So, everyone in America needs to do their patriotic duty and attach an Amazon Ring Cam Mass Surveillance Doggie Rescue Deviceโข to their front door, back door, and hell, living room ceiling, immediately. Otherwise the good people at Amazon Ring Cam will murder your missing dog.
Seriously though, are you noticing a trend?
When our data was first mass-surveilled, we were told it was to catch terrorists. When drones first started flying over American skies, we were told it was to catch pedophiles. When they started watching all of our license plates everywhere we went, we were told it was to catch criminals on the run.
Every right you give up will be couched in something moral and pure and cute.

POPULAR MAGA INFLUENCER JUNIOR
PENA WHO PRAISED ICE AND DEPORTATIONS IS DETAINED AND FACES DEPORTATION BY ICE

Junior Pena, a Brazilian social media influencer known for openly supporting strict immigration enforcement and praising the role of ICE, was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in New Jersey after missing an immigration court hearing that had been rescheduled but not properly updated in federal systems. His arrest drew attention because he had previously reassured his followers that only "crooks" were targeted by immigration crackdowns. Pena built a large audience by sharing pro-Trump commentary about immigration policies and urging other immigrants not to fear enforcement actions.
Supporters praised his perspective, while critics highlighted the irony of his own detention under the same system he publicly defended.
Legal observers explain that detention in cases like this often results from administrative or procedural issues rather than criminal conduct. Missing a scheduled hearing can trigger immigration detention regardless of past rhetoric or political views. Lawyers for Pena are reportedly working to prevent his transfer to another state as the case develops.
Public reaction to Pena's situation has been mixed, with some commentators noting the awkwardness of his predicament given his prior statements, and others calling for due process and humane treatment under immigration law. The case highlights broader debates about enforcement practices and the complexities of immigration status for long-term.
