I kinda love how the Blacksky team just kind of nodded in response to the racist attack over the weekend, and then just started releasing MORE features LOL

I left Gmail for @proton.me almost four years ago. I did it slowly, first moving over essential services to my new email, telling friends/family the new address, and signing up for new services, etc., with the new address. I use Google much less now.

I figure slow disentanglement > doing nothing

“what we’re witnessing is…on the scale of the larger concentration camp systems in history—the Soviet Gulag, the Nazi concentration camps, & Chinese labor camps…The admin is actively aspiring to a system of that magnitude to reshape society to its racial, political & cultural prefs for generations”
When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.
Building the camps
The warehouseification of detention and initial thoughts on stopping it.

just an update from when we talked to the reporter: we’ve now successfully connected over 100 families for direct, peer to peer rent adoption. we’ve collected and immediately distributed…a lot.

it is a drop in the bucket, but all of this is. everyone is just doing what they can.

Expose Nazis, get banned. The Bluesky way.
Our friends over at @bywayofplymouth.bsky.social got a permanent account ban, presumably for doxing fascists.

They’ve appealed, but it looks like Bluesky is not really a safe place for antifascist researchers who expose fascists.

In videos posted on social media, one employee can be heard saying: “This is the Ecuadorian consulate. You’re not allowed to enter.” The agent responds, “If you touch me, I’ll grab you.”

I keep repeating the fact that sex work is legal and regulated in certain nations to stress the fact that these wealthy "elite" weren't forced to go to a pedophile to locate a beautiful (and CONSENTING) adult woman or man to have sex with. They chose Epstein's counsel. Willingly. Happily.

I'm not slut-shaming. These are horrible, disgusting women not because of the vocation they chose, but the companies where they decided to work. Companies that gleefully kidnapped, tortured, and raped children.

Yeah, this is cementing my belief that Melania was a sex worker assigned to Trump.

I was genuinely looking forward to changing / hyphenating my name (a thing I NEVER, EVER thought I’d want to do) and these GOP fucks took that away from me.

That’s tiny in the grand scheme, but I hate it.

The entire purpose of the SAVE Act is to make sure trans people and married women can no longer vote. That's it.
“The SAVE Act will require voters to show proof of citizenship in order to register to vote in federal elections…”

“Only half of Americans hold a valid passport…Birth certificates are also problematic for many married women [whose] name may be different than the name on her birth certificate.”
My new piece is up and it requires your URGENT ATTENTION!

Which does NOT mean the SAVE Act isn't bad.

It just means all of this shit was always bad and instead of just stopping it, the goal should be undoing the parts we already live under, too.

I do want to remind folks today that I would guess at least half of the horrors people are posting about in the SAVE Act?

Already law in the much of south. They know it works because they did it to Black communities & everyone shrugged and made jokes about how we voted for every natural disaster.

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate
US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**

He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

Hey y'all.

A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews.

Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂
