Listen to brotha Bobby Seale recite the 10 points of the Black Panther program, because if we abided by them today, ICE wouldn't be stealing people out of our neighborhoods.

Today is Bobby Seale's 89th birthday, & I NEVER wanna hear "we are not our ancestors" again.

They wouldn't accept this ✊🏾

Yes!! That’s what makes it so great!

Just one minute of your time...🙏↪
Watch this video — it's not just scenes, it's the story of my wife and me… before the war and after.

We used to live in peace, and now we’re just trying to survive.🫂
The war changed everything, but love and good intentions still guide us.

Help us start again.🙏🫂

The DeSantis administration has not made public a list of names of the immigrants held at the facility in heavy duty tents at an airstrip in the Florida Everglades. Individuals sent to the makeshift detention center do not show up in an online government database that allows the public to search for immigrant detainees' whereabouts. Lawyers say they have had difficulty locating clients sent to the site, often learning that they are there when detainees call family members.

An enforced disappearance is considered to be the arrest, detention, abduction or any other form of deprivation of liberty by agents of the State or by persons or groups of persons acting with the authorization, support or acquiescence of the State, followed by a refusal to acknowledge the deprivation of liberty or by concealment of the fate or whereabouts of the disappeared person, which place such a person outside the protection of the law (Article 2 of the ICPED and Preamble of the Declaration on the Protection of all Persons from Enforced Disappearance) It is characterized by three cumulative elements (defined in A/HRC/16/48/Add.3): 1. Deprivation of liberty against the will of the person; 2. Involvement of government officials, at least by acquiescence; 3. Refusal to acknowledge the deprivation of liberty or concealment of the fate or whereabouts of the disappeared person.

Florida is committing "enforced disappearance," a very serious violation of international human rights law.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are laying parallel on the ground, both sweating miserably. Green: I want kisses and cuddles but it's too hot in here. Blue: Same. Green sticks his tongue out as an expression of frustration. Blue sticks his own tongue out too, reaching for Green's tongue. Eventually, still laying parallel without touching each other and sweating miserably, the foxes are holding tongues.

For Bass, it seemed, the problem was not that the LAPD was violently policing those protesting ICE raids; the problem was Trump's calling in the national guard to do the same thing. By this logic, the ICE raids, conducted with the support of myriad federal agencies, are a terrifying abuse of power that police should not collaborate in—but it's fine for them to collaborate by keeping protestors and witnesses away. The upside-down thinking goes even further: It's wrong for the National Guard to put down protests against the will of the governor and city officials, but it's fine for state and local law enforcement to do it, so long as state and local officials want them to. The line of reasoning is maddening, seemingly designed to scramble and demobilize support for the people of Los Angeles. Accept the terms of the debate, and you end up in a bizarre argument about how much violence from which armed agents of the law is acceptable.

I wrote about Los Angeles and violence.

ChatGPT is down but The Museum of English Rural Life still stands, proving once again that Silicon Valley cannot compete with the history of rural England and its people.

Care less, ignore suffering, prioritize comfortable stasis and cede progress to a future where it is someone else's problem will never be the move and people should be more embarrassed for advocating this sentiment in their fellow humanity. You trick-ass bitch.

Four panel comic in which Supergirl interrupts Batgirl in the middle of capturing The Penguin with a surprise birthday present! How nice! Except, um... it's not actually Batgirl's birthday. Supergirl course corrects the potential awkwardness that what she MEANT to say is that it's actually Random Present Day. Well, if that's the case, Penguin would like a present too. Accept, as Batgirl informs him, it is random. Maybe he'll get one tomorrow! I sure hope so. Random presents are pretty great.

It is mine, tho. 🥳

I don't think any single piece of information has ever radicalised me like reading the statistics on how many women have their husbands/boyfriends dump them because they got a terminal illness diagnosis

Weird, a whole article about Haymarket that doesn't use the word "anarchist" once. Musta been an accident

With things going the way they're going, y'all need to find that friend who can sew/repair and be willing to pay/barter with them appropriately for their skills. I'm not joking. You're going to need things to last as long as possible.

I’m sure the tariffs aren’t helping but in this specific case it might be more because we’re locking tourists up in detention centers

Trump is restoring the former Fort Bragg and Fort Benning to those names of Confederate leaders. But—wink wink!—he’s pretending they’re now named for obscure soldiers with the same last names.
Like if the Germans said, “We’re calling our base Hitler. But it’s a different Hitler.”
