I had a dream that in the congressional seats sat only some of the victims of the files. Starting directly at him.

Things happened after that, but.

The Epstein files document what many women researchers have long experienced but rarely seen laid bare so starkly: exclusion operating behind closed doors, shaping who gets funded, invited, mentored, and taken seriously. How many of these networks, norms, and gatekeepers remain in place?

Perry: The learning loss from the β€˜ICE pandemic’ "As Trump’s virus lurked around Minnesota schools looking to kidnap children and their parents, many children quite reasonably went into hiding," David M. Perry writes.

New piece: on learning loss after immigration raids.

Ignore news conferences and politicians. We will know the current horrors are over when kids come back to school. But getting kids back in school is just the first step. Then the real work begins.

TikTok investor Jeff Yass avoided paying $1 billion in taxes while largely escaping public scrutiny.

He then poured that money into campaigns to cut taxes and support election deniers.

That was actually the tier that broke my will to savage raid. Traveling to another data center to raid and falling to the numbers mech for nearly two months killed me. I couldn't even try p10. I liked p7s more than p9s.

I still haven't done ex trials this expac I'm that fried.

A 3D printed whistle in the light blue and red star pattern of Chicago's flag sits next to a twenty sided die of a deep blue color. They are resting on a journal, the whistle angled to look like it's poking out of a corgi-sticker's butt.

I'm having ideas. And it's not because of the awkward whistle placement either. (Whistle thanks to whistlegoblins.fun )

It was cool when it was about the music and movements in the 60s and 70s. When it was like the folks that made/ lived thru it. After that it just got to the braindead monetization. No one needs to hear the same 6 z list celebs talk about this shit like it's an interview series.

Hackers Expose Age-Verification Software Powering Surveillance Web Three hacktivists tried to find a workaround to Discord’s age-verification software. Instead, they found its frontend exposed to the open internet.

Discord was going to use age verification that literally pipes your information straight to the fascist US government, until hackers exposed it.

Rep. Foushee is funded by Big Tech, Big Pharma, & Big Oil.

Her newest corporate donor? Home Depot: a Trump ally that's helping ICE abduct workers.

We don't need more "Democrats" in Congress who answer to Trump's donors. That's why we're backing @nidaallam.bsky.social for #NC04.

All you need to do is stop making higher education cost more than the downpayment for a 3 bedroom house and thus stop turning sporting ability by children into their one shot to get a college education because like 5% of ppl can even afford one and this will mostly self correct I suspect

Open borders create more safety than closed ones, and most of the benefits of safety are downriver from being the sort of people who keep their borders open, thereby avoiding the terrible dangers inherent to being the sort of people who would keep their borders closed.
