From Alex’s memorial:

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you.” 1/2

It's not illegal to observe a government agency supposedly doing their job. What the fuck is this supposed to do? Do you see the issue here?
NEW: Letitia James, the New York attorney general, announced that her office will deploy "legal observers" to document ICE activity in NY.

Her office says the effort is the first of its kind by an AG.

I've heard from people in other cities "I'd like to see them try that in __!"

No. No, you wouldn't.

We have guns pointed in our faces in MN. I think you'd change your tune if this was happening to you, your family & your neighbors.

Nobody knows EXACTLY how to do this. This is NEW to all of US.

Soho - Hippychick is right up there because I used to not notice the riff was downtuned, and be excited to hear How Soon Is Now.
Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.

I feel badly that I have to do terrible things to my sick kitty but like, that's the way it goes. Pills, ear cleaning, trimming back nails. All terrible, but all necessary.

Seeing yet another 'using whistles is disablist' piece circulating: for the 40 millionth time, using disabled people as cover like this is disgusting and calculated to prey on people who are anxious about doing the wrong thing. Doesn't escape notice that white people are the worst offenders.

[squints] Imagine if we had to follow the law...
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases:

"Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

Thousands showed up in Seattle—nurses, doctors, educators—people who heal and protect life. Congress is voting to fund ICE instead of care. The public is choosing dignity and health. Lawmakers should listen.

It's cool to see the GOP going anti-gun. All it took was for a federal government-sanctioned force killing a white male nurse who had a gun, but didn't draw it, to decide that citizens should not have the right to bear arms at certain times...I'm sure this will end well.

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.

That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

But how are you doing?

Excellent job Howard County Maryland. Thanks for standing with us!
I commend County Executive Ball & local leaders in Howard Co for working to block ICE's attempt to set up another detention facility in Maryland.

We saw the inhumanity of ICE's operation in Baltimore & Marylanders have made clear: we do not want these facilities in our state.

Italian, 1900-something, poverty.

German, 1930-something, the Nazis. Turns out part of the family were Jewish, converted to hide the heritage, that didn't work, so left.
Genuinely curious: If your family is American, what brought them here?

Youse guise, today was long. I didn't miss anyone though. I also didn't draw very many people. I'm mildly considering if a management position opens if I want to apply. I think I'd only do it if it was my current lab and well, the lead isn't exactly quitting.

I keep getting culture shock whenever I read or watch something from longer than about ten years ago. It's jarring how much creepy rape innuendo, racism, and punching down on disability is just casually thrown around as normal humor.
