‘Outrageous’: Furor grows over ICE’s arrest, deportation of 6-year-old deaf Hayward child The uproar follows allegations that ICE agents mislead the family’s attorney and separated the child from vital equipment he needs to properly hear.

A six-year-old student at the California School for the Deaf-Fremont has been reunited with his communication devices after being deported to Columbia last week.

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

Like fundamentally Hasbro is making a business decision that Harry Potter fans will love the IP and not be bothered by the anti-trans stuff.

I get it. I don't love it but I get it.

American businesses in 2026 are often immoral.

But to make them stop you have to stop consuming her shit.

Congrats and yay!!

Looks like I’ll be in Anchorage for a couple of days this July (for a friend’s wedding)! Any suggestions for what-not-to-miss?

I’ll have with me:
A 6 month old baby
A rental car probably
A keen interest in local culture, especially craft, and local ecology

After Trump Officials Cut Food Aid to Kenya, Children Starved to Death “Brutal and traumatizing”: Interviews and a trove of internal documents show government officials and aid workers desperately tried to warn Trump advisers about impending disaster and death.

Secretary Marco Rubio claimed no one died as a result of cuts to USAID. That’s not what we found.

After Trump officials cut food aid to Kenya, children starved to death in an American-made hunger crisis.

Spilling out some limpet facts until people know about limpetization, ep. 01 :

Limpet teeth are the strongest biological material ever tested.

Nanofibers embedded in a protein matrix, they outperform Kevlar, spider silk, and even rivaling the best synthetic carbon fibers.

A screenshot of Rachel Dratch from SNL. She's a white woman with short dark hair and blue eyes, and she's making an awkward expression that implies, "Sorry I have to tell you this and ruin your good time. But also I'm kind of not sorry about it." I've added a subtitle that reads, "That's AI."

Hello! I’m the reporter who has been tracking citizens detained by immigration agents. And last night, I noticed something: A lot of them were at the State of the Union, including a number of whom I’ve written about.

Their stories should be known:

They’re beautiful!!

Photo of a hand holding up a card that features a painting of a keenly focused black bird, probably a crow (?) against a moody brown background. Light on the bird’s feathers carves out each individual plume

Particularly in love with this beauty. Yayyyyy arttttt

Photo of a hand holding a brown paper-wrapped package tied with a piece of rough twine. The package has a business card taped to it, partially obscured by the twine but it features a painting of a wolf. In the background a window and a blue curtain in front of a blue sky

🎶 These are a few of my favorite things! 🎶

(Just got a lil brown paper package tied up with string from @esthervanhulsen.bsky.social full of *gorgeous* bird art, congratulations to me and anyone getting mail from me I the next several months that will include the prettiest card!!)

Really glad my baby doesn’t develop language *before* learning to burp on her own, because I might have to restrain my fits of giggles and chants of “Hell yeah! Hell yeah!” when we get a particularly tuneful belch out of her tiny little body

Erin thank you for asking lmao, I am launching a pint-glass-mediated native plant education project. I just got the glasses yesterday and delivered the first 17 cases today 😅 they’re going to bars all over the city to try to reach people who would not seek at this kind of information online

Cambodian national dies in ICE custody in Indiana A detainee died in the custody of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Indiana on Monday, with the cause of death under investigation, ICE said on Wednesday, marking at least the seventh death ...

A Cambodian man -- old enough to have survived Pol Pot genocide but too young to die -- is the 7th person to die in ICE custody this year.

A Cuban man died of asphyxia in Jan, with witnesses saying guards killed him. A Palestinian woman was shackled after a seizure.

I ran out of interesting books in my middle school library so the librarian started teaching me to add things to the catalog and repair some of the older books with rickety spines. I like words and I don’t use genAI for anything.

My very kind drivers ed instructor spent the first two lessons hyping up his son to me and then sent his son to teach my third and final lesson. I was 16. He was probably 25 and VERY embarrassed that his dad was trying to set us up via driving lesson meet-cute

I liked them both but not Like That

Trump’s EPA decided climate change doesn’t endanger public health. Evidence says otherwise. - High Country News Extreme heat, severe weather and air pollution are proven to cause negative health impacts.

Extreme heat, severe weather and air pollution are proven to cause negative health impacts.

very good explanation of why not to feed images into an image generator, especially when memorializing children after a devastating tragedy.

better not to use image generators at all.

a slide with 3 pictures of schools with brightly colored murals stacked on top of one another under the words "Schools in service area". On the other side of the slide, a blank wall of a school under the label "Our partner"

Alright bsky science + art community, I need your help.

I was p confident we could get a grant to fund our upcoming biodiversity mural in Kensington. Last night, they called to say our partner school is 2 blocks outside of their service area.

But ya know what? We're gonna do it anyway.

A reasonable guess but the puffins are Atlantic! So I was assuming the dolphins were too, but 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

Honestly I found the artist on Instagram, maybe I should just ask her…
