One family, after the capture of a loved one, found out about it from activists and took steps to move other loved ones to non-287(g) jurisdictions. Another family still had no idea about why their loved one was captured until I told them about this and took steps to protect others that day.

Talking recently to family members of people snatched up and expelled to third countries by ICE, I learned: 1) All of those captured were in 287(g) jurisdictions; 2) None of the family members had known what 287(g) was and had erroneously thought people with no arrests were safe.

The Harry Potter sex cult members have at this point spent over a decade fermenting in an online culture full of the stupidest fucking people who have *ever* fucking lived, scaring each other silly with stoned freshman 101 level arguments about wizards.

Bear in mind, all these assholes are members of a doomsday sex cult based on a Harry Potter fanfic book, to them it is perfectly normal to add "but what if a wizard" at any opportunity.

You'd be like hey man if your computer is telling kids to kill themselves just unplug it. And their very first reflexive response will contain a wizard. "But what if it is a wizard who can persuade the person who tries to turn it off, with offers of priceless gems? What if no one can turn it off"

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.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

Naming films by women directors is fine, even good, but the topic always makes me feel so sad that after 125-odd years of films the list IS STILL SO SHORT THAT THAT IS EVEN A THING. Imagine a ratio like that for nearly any other artistic role, like, say, authors. Total societal failure on our part.

Arguments over adblocking based on the pros/cons of the internet era are so funny to me, who was shaped by the inescapable brazen bull of pre-internet TV and radio advertising. My views on the presence of ads in media would make even Mao uncomfortable. My hatred would scare AM the supercomputer.

Zelenskyy in the light a shadowed person on either side. They appear to be a sorceress or oracle of some sort on the left, and a galaxy defender Man-in-Black on the right. Just normal Zelenskyy things.

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

Certain kinds of smart people tend to have a "sexy apocalypse" problem when it comes to thinking about risk. E.g. skynet turning everyone in paperclips, while bad, is also *kind of cool and fun* at the same time. Where the reality is that most actual disasters are both stupid and disappointing.
