My husband and his friends realised they thought they were good guys but still made like, ironic-sexist jokes. They introduced the 'sexism snake' where wherever one of them made a sexist comment or joke, the others would just start hissing. Didn't need to get into an argument about it, just hissing.

The Heritage Foundation laid out how they were going to rescind Title IX, the law that prohibits sex discrimination in education, by first targeting trans people's participation in sport. Capitulating on the human rights of transgender people is catastrophically falling at the first hurdle.

Here’s the most incredible story you’ll read today. A small plane with four people aboard crashes in a field. Another pilot witnesses it. That pilot happens to be flying a bunch of skydivers. They offer to jump to assist, are given permission. The skydivers happen to be EMTs. Everyone survives.

Skydivers alert emergency crews, assist after plane crashes near East Troy airport
Four people were aboard the single-engine plane when it went down in a cornfield near Carvers School Road in East Troy at about 1:30 p.m.

As of today, the CDC has changed (reverted) their Covid guidance to make the vaccine recommended for all people over 18. In addition to being a smart public health move, this recommendation also means insurance must cover it. Read more here: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va... Listen to a breakdown here:

The school district is doing flu and Covid shot clinics. 3 of the most used insurances are not accepted. It is $60 for flu and $200 for Covid out of pocket. Our school has had free meals for a decade because almost everybody met the low-income threshold anyway. This IS eugenics, in practice.

Humaning.
A four-panel comic. In panel 1, a Northern Cardinal and American Goldfinch perch above a busy crowd in a city, looking down. The cardinal says "It's a nice day to go humaning." The goldfinch says "Just look at them. Majestic." In panel 2, a close-up of the two birds. The cardinal says "Nobody tells you that you'll reach a certain age and suddenly get into humaning. I hit 3 years old, and then bam."The birds are looking out over the crowd scene. In panel 3, the cardinal says "Their calls sound funny to us, but each one has a unique meaning." Below, people are saying various things: "I'm tired." "Where's my phone?" "I'd murder a burrito." In panel 4, the birds look down excitedly at a man walking by. The cardinal says "Wait, is that a guy who got dressed in the dark and put his shirt on inside out and backwards?" And the goldfinch exclaims, "Holy... that's a lifer!"

It's almost space heater season.
Three figures in dark robes stand before a castle as the moon rises. The castle is on fire! The first figure has a face made out of a space heater. The next figure has a face made out of an extension cord. The third figure has a face made out of a power strip. The text reads: Home safety traitors. Always plug your space heater directly into the wall, never a power strip. Keep it at least 3ft away from flammable items. Turn it off before you leave a room or go to sleep.

The details need an update (it's from the halcyon days when there were "only" ~1,200 287(g) agreements; there are now more than double that), but it gets the point across: ICE is co-opting local LEAs to conduct immigration enforcement, to the detriment of our communities. We don't have to allow it.
An infographic titled “Paid to Pursue: ICE’s Plan to Turn Private Contractors and Local Law Enforcement Into a Vast Bounty-Hunting Network.” It explains how ICE aims to expand deportation efforts by using private firms and local police.

ICE Collects Personal Data: ICE accesses large amounts of personal data from government agencies and data brokers such as Thomson Reuters and LexisNexis, along with surveillance tools like facial recognition and social media monitoring.

ICE Creates Profiles: Using a Palantir-built case management system, ICE turns this data into detailed AI-driven profiles, including visa status, physical characteristics, and information from license plate readers.

Private Contractors Track Immigrants: ICE gives private firms lists of 50,000 immigrants at a time to verify their locations through skip tracing. Contractors access ICE’s case system, ImmigrationOS, to locate up to 1.5 million people, earning base pay per verified address plus bonuses for speed and accuracy.

ICE Gives Target Lists to Local Law Enforcement: ICE shares verified target lists with hundreds of state and local agencies through its 287(g) program, which deputizes local officers to enforce federal immigration laws. DHS offers bonuses of up to $1,000 per officer for successful identifications.

At the bottom, a section titled “The 287(g) Program” explains that the program authorizes local officers to identify, arrest, and process individuals for deportation. It notes that the number of 287(g) agreements grew sharply during the Trump administration and that critics warn these partnerships promote racial profiling and harm community trust. The graphic concludes that fighting the spread of 287(g) agreements is one of the most important ways to help keep communities safe.
