please help my friend support his family 💜

I am Magdi from Gaza@helpmagdy.bsky.social · last mo.

We are not asking for the impossible… We are only asking for a chance to live with dignity. 💔 Our children need food and water, and every day without help makes life harder. If you can, please help us, even with a small amount. chuffed.org/project/1840...

Only two days are left until school begins, and my children dream of going to school like every other child, but they don’t even have school bags or stationery. Please don’t let these difficult circumstances take away their right to learn. ❤️ chuffed.org/project/1840...

💔 We are not asking for the impossible… we are only asking for a chance to live. In Gaza, getting food and clean water for my family has become a daily struggle. My children don’t understand why everything has become so difficult. They only want to eat, sleep safely, and feel like children again.

Notable w/ DHS falsely claiming people are “weaponizing” vehicles is that since George Floyd uprisings GOP lawmakers have pushed laws legalizing plowing over protesters w/ cars Also MAGA/alt-right memes were rife w/ fantasies abt doing just that, portending neo-Nazi car attack in Charlottesville

"what are we going to do with 20,000 ICE agents if we abolish ice" well to start with I think we should all literally spit on them in public for the rest of their lives

This is incredible chutzpah when anyone with eyes can look at the video and see that not a word of this is remotely true.

Noem: "What happened was our officers were out trying to get a car stuck out of the snow when they were surrounded and assaulted and blocked in by protesters ... this was an act of domestic terrorism" (It was 40 degrees in Minneapolis yesterday and snow was melting ... )

Since last year, Trump admin planned what to do if ICE agents were accused of crimes (even murder): Protect them “no matter what." Trump laid out ways to retaliate: —Refuse to hand over an agent —Charge local officials with “obstructing" —Threaten to cut off more funding led by @swin24.bsky.social

Inside Trump’s Plans To Protect Killer ICE Agents ‘No Matter What’

Minnesota officials want to investigate ICE’s killing of a mother in Minneapolis. Team Trump has been planning for a moment like this.

One of the core purposes of right-wing media is to rewrite your memory and reprogram your moral response to an event you saw with your own eyes. George Floyd died of a heart attack. Jan 6 was a peaceful picnic. This process has already begun

AOC: What we saw today was a criminal murder a woman while she was trying to flee for her life. What we saw today was a manifestation of every American’s worst nightmare: their government turning into a tyranny.

there we go, that’s a headline

Minnesota Could Prosecute the ICE Shooter. Trump Can’t Pardon Him.

Shortly after an ICE officer shot and killed a woman in Minneapolis, city leaders began looking into whether the officer had violated state criminal law.

Community members have put up barricades on the street in Minneapolis where ICE shot and killed Renee Good yesterday morning. Protests and vigils have spread across the city and throughout the country in the aftermath of the fatal shooting by a federal agent

Fox News host calls masked Minneapolis protesters "cowardly"; co-host says ICE agents are also masked but "that's for a different reason: they don't want to get doxed."

@rikiwilchins.bsky.social 2026 Jan 8 WindyCityTimes: Trans employee sues Chicago Cubs for hostile workplace & retaliation, saying since her hiring she has been called "tr*nnie," "f*ggot" "it" & when she filed complaints, they were disclosed to employees, increasing the harassment.

tip for parent management: my parents were asking me about chatGPT, and have some friends who love it, and none of my attempts to caution them were as successful as just sending them the Wikipedia page for AI hallucinations

Also: " Border Patrol officials also plan to send all nonlethal weapons housed in Chicago to Minnesota, according to the documents."

"The Department of Homeland Security plans to pause operations in Chicago — where Gregory Bovino, a Border Patrol official, has led controversial arrest efforts — to support the immigration enforcement operation in Minnesota."

I agree with the conclusion here, but one thing I will gently add is that the parenthetical ‘England and Wales’ at the bottom of this graph is incredibly pointed, as is the 2005 starting range. The U.K. police have shot a lot of people in Northern Ireland.

Hey, did you know that Greek lost the phoneme /h/ because of secularism? You see, /h/ intrinsically symbolises the Creator. And hydrogen. This journal is published by @springernature.com , and is hosted by @nature.com. How did this incoherent nonsense make it into print?

WTF?! 🫣 Is this a joke? www.nature.com/articles/s41... A religious quote, "primitive languages", and nonsense everywhere. Is Nature Humanities and Social Sciences Communications a scam journal?
