NEW: ICE has a plan to lease offices across the US as part of a secret, months-long expansion campaign.

Today, @wired.com is publishing dozens of those locations. Many are near schools, medical offices, and places of worship.

Vital work from @leahfeiger.bsky.social that I'm proud to publish.

Dentistry feels like the closest I get to Catholicism - not just the sin and shame around not doing enough, but then you add the salvation through minor suffering and the holy trinity (the Dentist, the Hygienist and the Receptionist) and you’ve got something.

Orthodonists, though, hard Protestant.

Has anyone talked about how Ksenia Kharlamova, who plays Svetlana in Heated Rivalry, is the great-niece of Valeri Kharlamov - as in, Miracle on Ice and Summit Series, namesake of multiple Russian hockey awards Valeri Kharlamov?

So far, by far the most interesting thing about the series tbh

So in the end we had a playoff atmosphere, and both the Leafs and Mitch Marner did nothing. Sounds about right.

Lmfao what an awesome proposal. One reason you need a 90% income tax rate at this level is these guys are too stupid to have the amount of power they do. Like giving a glock to a 4 year old

I mean look, who buys more fine art - tech bros or children?
Not pissing off Elon Musk and Canada’s right-wing tech bros is far more important to Evan Solomon than protecting Canadians from deepfake sexual abuse and acting on child sexual abuse material.
The concept of posting “Canada is not considering a ban of X” as a QUOTE of your post condemning deepfake sexual abuse happening **ON X** of women and kids………….

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

in your 20s, you'll come across someone who's wrong online. it's very important than you spend the next 40 years of your life learning and arguing about this topic online long after they've moved on, built a career, and raised a family.

Thinking of watching alternating episodes of Shoresy and Heated Rivalry, to keep my current levels of woke in balance.

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality.

And trans lives are grounded in reality.

We see y'all. No matter what.

First-of-a-kind study shows encouraging data for trans kids who socially transition
Ninety-four percent of participants in a new study stood firm in their trans identity after five years, and "detransitioning" is rare.

Heavy tar sands aren’t economically viable?? Has…has anyone told Alberta or Carney this?
The truly wild thing is this isn’t even true, a shit-ton of their oil reserves on paper are heavy tar sands and every US oil company will take one look at that at $80/bbl and walk away because it isn’t close to economically viable.
Rep. Salazar on Venezuela: "We're about to go in ... we need to go in ... Venezuela for the American oil companies will be a field day"

A major driving vector for AI, I think, is the same kind of business consultant who convinced everyone they needed "organizational agility" and "lean staffing" in the '90s
