You’ll Be OK
"I'm havin a breakdown," says one crudely-drawn stick figure to another. "You'll be OK," says the second. The first stick figure exclaims, "AGGHHH", and collapses. His head and outstretched arms and legs spell out the letters O-K.

part of the reason it feels so bad to live in the US these days is that the trump guys have basically made the whole country into a red state. this is what that lack of governance feels like: diarrhea outbreak

Kohen Wiley, a 1-year-old child, is dead after a Mississippi police officer shot into a car and killed him. Family members say his mother was holding him in the passenger seat. The officers were responding to a shoplifting call over a box of diapers at the Senatobia Walmart.

Read this whole piece.
Mamuka spent 119 days in detention, about four months, but under normal circumstances, he should have been released. He was arrested on February 5 in Alabama, where he was detained for five days, then moved to Winn where he spent another 114 days before dying in custody. Unless something changed between the middle of March and early June, he did not have a final removal order so ICE couldn't move him-instead, Mamuka had a case pending before an immigration judge this entire time, and may have still been waiting on a final hearing when he passed. He was classified as the lowest risk level in detention, he had no mandatory detention flag, he was not a known terrorist or a suspected gang member (problematic as those categories are, and he never had a prior detainer, so it's unlikely that he ever had a run-in with police.All of these factors, combined with the nature of his arrest, support a straightforward conclusion that he should not have been in detention in the first place. Using the national ICE detention average daily rate of $150, the US taxpayer spent $17,850 detaining this single person without any evidence that it served the interests of public safety or national security.

You used to be able to google the time of the sunset, and Google would give you the exact time right on top every single time. Thankfully, with artificial intelligence, you can now ask Google what time the sun will set and it will conveniently tell you "I don't know."

your regular reminder that the national shoplifting crisis was a manufactured moral panic largely engineered by corporations in order to cover up their own mismanagement — and that wage theft is the largest category of theft in the U.S.
LA Times headline: "Retailers say thefts are a crisis level. The numbers say otherwise."

"What Iranians deserve is so ordinary is almost embarrassing to say aloud. They deserve not to spend their mornings calculating whether they will survive until evening. They deserve to be seen as people... not as acceptable losses, not as the unfortunate human context around a geopolitical problem."
