Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Cut from this video: most of the agents didn’t care I was there, but one ICE agent did ask a state trooper to give me a jaywalking ticket for crossing an empty street while recording (the trooper laughed and said no).

Williams, 37, then unleashed her response to the DHS’ statement in an Instagram Story post Monday: “And may I suggest all Nazi bitches suck on my fat d***.”

A DHS representative did not immediately return The Independent’s request for comment.

Well said.
Excerpt from the linked article in the quoted post that reads: The Prairieland defendants were motivated by an opposition to ICE and the terrors they have and continue to unleash on communities; a position that, per a February 2026 poll, is held by a majority of Americans. How many people in your life feel the same way? And how about you—have you ever gone to an anti-ICE protest, complained about capitalism, or joined a neighborhood Signal chat? Congratulations. Definitionally, you’re an “antifa member”—and in the eyes of the US government, that makes you a terrorist.

I LOVE how @propublica.org dealt with official comment here, editorially and stylistically.
The Trump administration says none of this is happening. 

"DHS is NOT arresting U.S. citizens by mistake." "There are no 'indiscriminate' stops." Allegations of "racial profiling are disgusting, reckless and categorically FALSE." "The pattern is NOT of law enforcement using force." "ICE does not zip tie or restrain children." 

But that is precisely what is happening, and at a far larger scale than previously reported.

no, really. defund the police. their continued existence is a threat to every single value that america claims to hold dear. there is no such thing as a good cop. there is no such thing as a lawful police department. there is no such thing as freedom as long as they exist in their current form

Excellent to see this case made in another outlet policymakers and campaigners read. I’d add that I think a lot of the NYT’s influence among Dems comes from donors, not necessarily rank and file supporters.

Alan Moore & Zach Rabiroff have a great line in this interview where they compare the work of history to laying bathroom tiles. Just as we use grouting to connect these tiles together, so too the historian tells a story to connect otherwise disconnected facts. flaminghydra.com/issue-619/

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a high school basketball game. The home team is down 9 points, and some players are looking discouraged on the bench. The coach points to a player just out of frame and says, “flippers, you’re in!” Panel 2: the away team attempts a deep 2-point shot, possibly to beat the buzzer, which is blocked by Flippers, a whale who doesn’t even have his arms up. Panel 3: the game ends and the home team excitedly crowd around Flippers, who won them the game. A player from the away team looks stunned, with his hands on his head.

Vick spent almost 2 years in prison and Watson faced almost 0 consequences - the NFL didn’t even suspend him for a full season. This comparison is out of pocket. Vick DID pay his debt to society, colloquially that usually means someone served a prison sentence. Vick did that. For nearly 2 years.

Not a novel observation by any means but the irony here, of course, is that it is precisely the UK’s successful approach to multiculturalism that has allowed us to generate a brown white nationalist.

I hear you, i just think the polling indicates way too big of a voter differential for them to stop us now. And i’m not gonna fed-post, but leftist/liberal 2A ownership has jumped up and we’ve gotta stay frosty together. I’m not a 2A owner but i’m gonna vote no matter what, personally.
