I agree that if democrats take control of the house in 2026 they should starve ICE/CBP of funding, as republicans successfully did with the IRS when they took control of the house in 2022

David Dayen@ddayen.bsky.social · 6mo ago

ICE/CBP have gone unfunded for 3 days; how about 3 years? The best way to claw back the $170 billion immigration enforcement surge in the Big Beautiful Bill is to just claw it back. The 2nd-best way is to slowly drain it by never funding the underlying appropriation. @ryanlcooper.com makes the case:

As stated on the program website: "The net proceeds from this round of Japanese courses will be donated to verified Palestinian families in Gaza listed with OBE." If you want to learn Japanese thoughtfully while supporting a good cause, consider OBE. www.orangeblossomeducation.ca/japanese-feb...

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month

it's unfair to the annoying orange, who is now further left than kamala harris. welcome comrade 🍊🫡

my coworker mentioned visiting this cafe last night with his wife, and told me about their mutual aid efforts - that they had a table of sandwiches and food for folks to take freely, no questions asked (folks were donating to fund it), and that they had whistles and zines available. so cool!

I just got off the phone with Elizabeth's dad...she and her mom were freed tonight! Updated story: sahanjournal.com/education/co...

Elizabeth is a Columbia Heights fourth-grader who loves volleyball, learning English and giggling in the halls with her friends. She's been held in the Dilley Immigration Processing Center for nearly a month, and she and her mom have both fallen ill. sahanjournal.com/education/co...

Sondos’ husband Mohammed suffers from a heart condition and has run out of his medication. It’s about $110 per month to keep up his regimen. Please help if you can. @mommunism.bsky.social @pepsffk.bsky.social ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Sondos has received only one donation in the past 10 days. She badly needs more support. @mommunism.bsky.social @pepsffk.bsky.social 🩷

Listen. The average person just doesn’t need training to know that it’s wrong to kill people. This is not some big complex problem that requires expertise to get right. If ICE is killing people, it’s from a lack of morality, not a lack of knowledge.

kicked in $20 myself and $100 from the salon rent fund (both through venmo after contacting the organizer), can someone match me? it would be awesome to get this need met for this family today to give them some peace of mind going into the end of the month!

Hey folks: big day in Minnesota today, but also our neighbors still need rent. I'm fundraising for another parent at my neighborhood elementary school: she needs rent by Feb. 4. Vetted, any help much appreciated! gofund.me/7513d29a4

Next place to donate if you have a few dollars to spare.

okay here is another small one

rightwingers see people caring about others in their community and instead of finding that inspiring they think it’s some sort of grand conspiracy because they don’t understand what it means to care for others you don’t personally know

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum. Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum. Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum. ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

it’s so cool that the only use case for ai is to distort everyones perception of reality. this needs to be heavily regulated immediately, especially when a government can do this

StickerMule has been rotten for ages, as has ULINE, but as with a lot of small-art-business inside-baseball stuff, I don't expect people to automatically know. But now you know.

Kory Bing@korybing.bsky.social · 7mo ago

I stopped using sticker mule absolute ages ago because of the owner’s bullshit. The owner is still on his bullshit, so if you use sticker mule, maybe don’t. StickerAPP is a good alternative, and also there’s most likely a local sticker printer near you (Sticker Ninja in Portland, for example).

Been working on a new sticker sheet and I think this might be one of the best guys I’ve ever drawn in my life…

i was weird and did not banter effectively at the grocery store and i'm being very brave about it
