Amy Jo (AJ) Cousins@ajcousins.bsky.social · 2h agoThe govt has fired *all* the immigration attorneys representing detained children and given a $150 million contract to a 26-employee law firm in Texas with ONE immigration attorney. @theyoungcenter.bsky.social's Child Advocates are now the last line of defense for kids in deportation hearings.
We're going to find out that they are "a lot cheaper than usual" because ICE is using their Big Murder Bill money to subsidize them, aren't we?

On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️
The GOP doesn't get punished if this country doesn't elect more leftists.
"it looks like you're using an adblocker to visit our site." yep! ha ha! it rocks!
It's confusing because police unions use the same words and phrases as labor unions. They've got acronyms and numbers and logos and negotiating lead and all that. Police unions should not be accorded the same level of respect and validity as labor unions. There's no mutual interest there. 4/?

I don't live anywhere near Michigan (but have many friends there or from there) and I am so tired of hearing about that god damn senate primary. Can't imagine what it's like to be there. Just vote already!
Please scroll to the top and read every word of this thread re: means testing.

Great short video
Greg Pak@gregpak.net · 4d agoHey, friends! I put my big face in a video like the kids do! Time to join the @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social and tell @mayor.nyc.gov to enact a moratorium on "A.i." in the schools! Please share - and please tell the mayor you want a moratorium! www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...
never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
PS holding abusers accountable doesn't mean locking them in cages necessarily it means helping them transform in all the ways possible AWAY FROM VICTIMS and anyone else they might harm and removing their access to power to harm I .. wrote a book about this

Solidarity with PNW because these new fire seasons are brutal and shocking and watching this from afar brings up a lot of stuff. Nothing is normal anymore.
Spokane Rising@spokanerising.com · 4d agoHoly crap. Level 3 (GO NOW!) zone now includes urban Spokane, south of Francis to Wellesley. Level 2 (GET SET!) zone now extends east of Division. Not to be alarmist, but at this rate, it’s not inconceivable that the Old Trails Fire merges with the Fairview Fire.
This is an absolutely insane way for @applemaps.bsky.social to direct someone to get from Hayes St. to Golden Gate Park on a bike. This directs you into a MAJOR cross-city thoroughfare that does NOT have a protected bike lane at this part of Fell St.
To process the chaos, I'm spending a few minutes each night stitching a news diary--embroidering tiny icons representing an important story of the day. July was a bit of a whirlwind, and not just because of the pyrocumulonimbus clouds.
How is the world still letting Israel do this? Something is seriously broken in international diplomacy/relations if they can just perpetuate a slow-motion genocide and everyone just goes about their business as if everything's ok. THIS IS NOT OK!
Lisa 🇨🇦@pinkmouse.bsky.social · 4d agoOf course they did. Israeli strikes in Gaza on Saturday killed at least 2 people & damaged warehouses for medical supplies, Palestinian officials said, despite a recent deal between Trump’s Board of Peace and Hamas to advance the Gaza cease-fire. #BoredofPeace #TrumpFails #FailedCeaseFire #Blues
I gotta start rehearsing my "Spontaneous ICE Confrontation Diatribe" so I present more like this guy, and not an incoherent fool with a cracking voice.

Substack is quickly starting to have the feel and vibe of Elon’s social media hellhole. It’s one of the major reasons why Between The Hashmarks left Substack behind. Here’s why, and how you can support my work, now that we’re building on @beehiiv.com.

This is great and we need a lot more visibility into the grotesque profiteering off of human suffering. Private prisons must be abolished.
Boycott, Citizens@boycottcitizens.org · 6d ago🧵 Who's profiting from the imprisonment of children at the Dilley ICE Camp? #1 is of course CoreCivic, which expects to generate $180M in revenue annually running the facility. 1/4
christ if that’s not a metaphor for our times
Refrigerator trucks full of bodies. Mass graves. Family members dying alone in hospital corridors and unable to have proper funerals for fear of deceased spreading disease to funeral home workers. Our social media-induced attention spans are memory holing history at an increasingly alarming rate.
Stephen Robinson@playtyperguy.com · 6d agoTHE FOUR SEASONS had a an episode set during Thanksgiving 2020 when everyone gets covid and it’s treated very much like a bad case of the flu. This is somewhat dangerous revisionism of the risks from the disease pre-vaccine.
NEW FROM ME: A frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights over the last few days suggests the Trump admin is ratcheting up its ethnic cleansing campaign. And it may be increasingly desperate to find willing collaborators. My breakdown: gillianbrockell.com/frenzy-of-cr...
Frenzy of cruel and unusual ICE flights shows Trump’s ethnic cleansing campaign is escalating – again
Seven apparent ICE removal flights in the last few days – including third-country removals, prolonged shackling, and failed deportations – reveal an agency ratcheting up.
