Parents who deny medical care like vaccines to their kids should simply go to jail for attempted murder and never be allowed contact with their kids. No excuse justifies that level of abuse.

I’ve noticed that when you’re living in authoritarianism, a large portion of the population thinks they’re still living in democracy.
It’s like living in the motherfucking twilight zone.

Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE.
ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.

Former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz says Jewish students shouldn’t have smartphones until they finish high school — so they don’t see the “carnage” Israel and the U.S. have carried out in Gaza.

Did a little checking, because the suit hasn't had any hearings, yet less a decision appealable to SCOTUS:
This is, weirdly a fake story making its way around meta properties, with the only links being to a right-wing propaganda/fake news site, "usamidia"

I think the shortest version of why LLMs are an anti education technology is that education is fundamentally about making shared context to understand ourselves, each other, and the world
And by design LLMs destroy shared context

Consequences like....
- Mass cancellations of Meta social media accounts?
- Huge boycotts that sink the stock prices of his corporate besties?
- Millions switching their federal witholding to zero, so the feds get no $ for a month?
- A 10-day general strike?
I mean, I'm game.

If there are no consequences to the "president" for threatening political opponents with death or being cruel to reporters, then why is it even news? Just so we can all be sad about it?

Our military members must understand: at Nuremberg, German officers and soldiers who hid behind the “just following orders” excuse were held accountable. Many were imprisoned. Many were executed. That precedent is iron law. Those who murdered innocent brown fishermen are condemned. Don’t join them.

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

![II. Credibility
The Court next addresses the credibility of the parties’ evidence and witnesses. After reviewing all the evidence submitted to the Court and listening to the testimony elicited at the preliminary injunction hearing, during depositions, and in other court proceedings, the Court finds Defendants’ evidence simply not credible. [FN 6]
Plaintiffs submitted a mountain of evidence, providing the Court with over eighty declarations, numerous videos and articles, and other evidence. Defendants did not rebut anything that Plaintiffs set forth in their declarations or testimony, even with BWC footage.
[FN 6] In another case considering some of the same evidence presented to this Court, another court in this district also found that the perceptions of certain of Defendants’ declarants, such as Hott and Parra, were not reliable. See Illinois v. Trump, No. 25-cv-12174, 2025 WL 2886645, at *5 (N.D. Ill. Oct. 10, 2025) (noting a “troubling trend of Defendants’ declarants equating protests with riots and a lack of appreciation for the wide spectrum that exists between citizens who are observing, questioning, and criticizing their government, and those who are obstructing, assaulting, or doing violence”), motion to stay denied in part, 155 F.4th 929 (7th Cir. 2025).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2vtbmhmrwzbqcfv4we4uxzzt/bafkreifpyry2il5toxbr3iejgrsxs6kmnwve75qwnhebfp44ieyjrfpsdu@jpeg)
