16 hours without electricity.
The apartment is getting colder, quieter.

Funny thing - with a candle burning,
It somehow feels warmer.
Maybe not because of the heat,
But because of the light.

I still have internet.
Still have connection.

It’s the Epstein files deja vu: how many more powerful men knew about his crimes, and helped him out anyway? | Marina Hyde
I’m sorry, but this is not just a political scandal. Time to refocus on the horrific mistreatment of women and girls, and the role of these ghouls, says Guardian columnist Marina Hyde

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

If you’re watching this
From somewhere warm and safe -
Please don’t look at us like a tragedy.
Look at us like people
Who are still living,
Still feeling,
Still loving -
Even when it’s hard to breathe.

So much wrong with this but…they sold his phone?!? Like, for profit?? Now ICE can just confiscate and pawn your property???
This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

Wake up people! Twitter as once was no longer exists...
Now there's a split between online MPs who used social media before the job and those who joined it for the job. The former are all on BlueSky and doing the existing lobbying re X, the latter are yet to have someone credible sit them down to talk through how the fundamentals of Twitter have changed.

I wrote about London's new Holocaust memorial, due to get the green light this year.

Supporters believe the project has already been delayed for too long.

But critics fear it will oversimplify Britain’s relationship with its past and with present-day antisemitism.

Britain’s troubled Holocaust memorial
Stalled for more than a decade, a memorial in the shadow of the U.K. Parliament has stirred strong emotions — and very British planning objections.
