For some context, this kind of local police to ICE pipeline has been a dream for decades. “Secure Communities” under Bush/Obama was an early iteration, but never got anywhere near the funding ICE has now. It generated enough backlash against Obama that ICE was reined in. Very different times now.
As we keep saying: not even cis folks are safe from the deranged and creepy gender obsessions of the right.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · yesterdayNEWS: The Pentagon has announced mandatory low-testosterone screenings for male troops 30 and older, including screening for symptoms such as “reduced libido, loss of spontaneous morning erections, erectile dysfunction,” and other symptoms.
I also think that he is simply fascinated with death and intoxicated by the idea that he can inflict death.
RFK Jr. wants people to get sick. He wants them to get sick and he thinks it is a good thing if they die, since those who live will have "natural immunity" and emerge stronger and fitter.

"Your brains stop developing at age 25" was a press misrepresentation of a study. They wanted to see if brains continued to develop after adolescence, so the study was capped at age 25. A later study with a wider subject pool showed that brains are ALWAYS developing our whole lives.
thene@thene.bsky.social · 4d agothis is why it's my pet peeve fake science fact. It's absolute bs! nothing happens to brains at age 25, they do not "fully mature". you will notice that many societies have an age of majority or coming-of-age or whatever and none of them have ever chosen mid-20s.
We've reached the "Republican House Members cutting anti-Trump campaign ads" stage of the GOP implosion.

i have said it before and ill say it again every single financial institution would benefit from paying a pink hair communist with a septum piercing to walk around the office all day saying “how fucking stupid are you people that you actually believe this shit?”

Dubai was built by slaves and criminalizes homosexuality so yeah, watching Chris Hemsworth, Jennifer Aniston and David Beckham promote the UAE has been less than fun 😡
Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE@leftistlawyer.com · 3d agoWe should be treating every celebrity doing PR for the UAE the way we're treating Ed Sheeran, btw. Those celebrities doing ads for Emirates airlines? Dubai and Abu Dhabi tourism? Dubai chocolate? They're doing genocide denial too.
I mean if you really want to hear Ed Sheeran without any opening acts you can simply get put on hold with your bank
Every time I see an egregious ass headline I have to remind myself that approximately 50% of the population can't even read the article behind it
Sheryl Weikal says Prosecute ICE@leftistlawyer.com · 4d agoThe honest answer to "why isn't everyone rebelling yet" is "most people in the US are so uninformed that they don't actually know what is going on."
NEW: Hackers ripped down a Flock camera above a roadway, made a near-complete copy of the data stored inside it, and shared the files with 404 Media and @wired.com, revealing in new detail how exactly Flock Safety’s cameras track the movements of both vehicles and people.

“I think adults bullying and demanding to see children’s’ genitals on command is bad.” Look at that. It’s that easy.

Meanwhile Ed Sheeran, a fucking lunatic billionaire who owns an entire Potemkin village like Marie fucking Antoinette, has managed to 5D chess his way into getting his own personal Kumbh Mela to himself cancelled to the tune of like 18 bazillion quid.
Macklemore is a real case study in how you can be Kind of a Dumb Guy but still end up broadly on the right side of most things merely by being generally quite good-natured, because questions like "should trans people exist?" and "is it bad to do a genocide?" are actually really uncomplicated.
The truth is none of y’all hate Robert Kraft enough. Get on my level. (From February) gillianbrockell.com/the-truth-ab...

The best reason to hate the New England Patriots is where their team planes have been.

remember when a member of richard spencer’s entourage fired a gun into a crowd during his college speaking tour and they kept letting him speak on college campuses? it was about two months after a woman was murdered at an event he was headlining.

I don't think people really understand the psychic impact of knowing that multiple times a day every day your friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, and everyone who could ever have any power over you is being flooded with agitprop designed to make them hate you

Guys. I got it. Kraft funded Gillette Stadium. That would be relevant if Kraft was the only owner involved. Kraft himself said he organized a boycott with other owners. Every single one of these people is an oligarch, a genocide enabler, and a fucking monster. Including but not limited to Bob Kraft.
Angel[a] Pappas@disnazzio.bsky.social · 5d agoThere’s a million things but one of the things is the massive amount of PUBLIC funding of stadiums just for some genocide-enjoying oligarch to turn around and say who is allowed to perform in “his” stadium based on whether he is mad at them for disliking genocide.
The NFL team owners have run a game on their fans and the tax paying public by hanging the costs of these overpriced stadiums on the public while overcharging for parking,food drinks and gear. They're laughing all the way to the banks. Too many of us put up with this crap.
Hey d'you know what's a great thing to do during an oil crisis? Go on local walking tours that you can take public transit to
