it is the 81st anniversary of the liberation of auschwitz by the soviet army
On This Day: Auschwitz camp liberated from Nazis | The Jerusalem Post
At last year's 80th anniversary of the Auschwitz liberation, only 50 survivors attended the ceremony in Poland, and it is estimated that fewer than 1,000 Auschwitz survivors remain globally.

Imagine a paramilitary gang kills 2 observers over 2 weeks, then shows up at your home to say, "You, observer, we know where you live."

That's a death threat.

If it happened to me or a colleague when I was a human rights observer in N. Ireland, we would've lodged complaints with three govts.
One human rights observer in Maine said agents followed her home, blocked off her street, and came to her door to say they know where she lives. Her children are now staying elsewhere, to keep them safe.
Now in Maine: ICE watchers say federal agents are coming to their house to threaten and intimidate them.

By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

Also no mention of the general strike that was part of this today.

Zero.

Corporate media doesn’t want you to know this was a general strike
Fuck you CNN “hundreds”?!?!

Fucking spineless cowards - how many were really there you boot licking enablers?

I've said it before and I'll say it again: easy streaming access to Star Trek TOS should be a human right.

it should generally be understood by pundits and lawmakers that the larger populace believes there is some accessible legal path for immigrants that requires them to line up outside the country for processing

like an Ellis Island situation, and people are "skipping the line" by crossing the border

From NYT interview with FBI official on Patel. Utterly terrifying.

"His staff only cared about three things: what his meals were, when his workouts would be and what his entertainment would be. The biggest plan is how he's going to get his girlfriend to Windsor Castle."

If only there was as much effort put into improving youth services, making sports, arts and crafts available and affordable, and making the physical environment more 'teen-friendly' as there is for banning kids from social media or taking their phones away.

If you cared about teenagers' mental health, you'd be campaigning for more skate-parks and cycle-paths, subsidised music courses and access to sports-centres, rather than moaning about smartphones.

Last term I tried an experiment: I walked into my Tech and Design Ethics class, admitted that I had *no idea* what to do about ChatGPT - so I would let them figure it out.

As in: their first project was to decide and write the ChatGPT policy for the class.

Here's what happened:

Christians, like communists, do actually have an itemized list of things they’re supposed to do to be what they claim to be, lol
also like it’s considered gauche to reply to every instance of Christians sucking with “well they’re not real christians“
but like

There’s multiple documented instances of Republicans and evangelicals committing like, actual heresies

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

You're telling me they finally make the Starfleet Academy show and there's finally a chance to mesh with the Starfleet Academy alumni merch at the official Star Trek store, the stuff with the never seen on screen or even mentioned Starfleet Academy mascot and then the show has... a different mascot?

The entire world really needs to ban USians from our nations as an existential health threat. No amount of tourism or commerce is worth the risk of anything coming out of that plague colony.
So, let me make sure I understand. No COVID mask mandates. No vaccination mandates. But the federal government is going to experiment on the national population without our consent. Do I have that right?

I have a hard time ascribing pretty much any ideology to Discovery, Strange New Worlds and Picard due to just how...intensely vapid the writing is. THere's surface level statements where they'll turn to the camera and say, "Racism...is bad" but they don't understand anything enough to do more
