The predictable Discourse is starting and I'm going to take a strong stand here: you can both want to abolish ICE and laugh really, really hard at Milo Yiannopoulos getting arrested by ICE after a decade of stoking the ethnonationalist hatred that led us to this point

The FDA just approved daraxonrasib, a breakthrough drug for advanced pancreatic cancer that doubles survival time. This is huge: pancreatic cancer was once thought untreatable. The researchers received a standing ovation when they presented the trial results, unheard of at scientific conferences.

Here we see krav maga in action. As we can see the ultrasound machine in this cancer hospital was threatening the life of this brave IDF soldier, but thanks to his steadfastness and his training, he was able to overcome the ability of Palestinians to detect and treat pediatric cancer

Krav Maga is the only martial art with a kata for unplugging baby incubators

🇺🇸DOCS: "In 13 days I saw 13 kids shot in the head & chest... deliberate killing of children... 🇮🇱's 'final solution' for Palestinans boils down to 'I want their land + I'm willing to kill children to get it' - part of the genocide." Docs tell Hasan & CNN what they saw.

The conditions in ICE detention centers are outrageous. Worms. Standing sewage water. Measles outbreaks. 52 people have died so far. No American - no matter what your view is on immigration - should stand for this inhumanity.

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

I was a little shocked when I put CPSC data on e-bike deaths and NHTSA data on motor vehicle deaths side-by-side www.datawrapper.de/_/HB8ZK/ CPSC data says 310 people have died in e-bike crashes since 2017 NHTSA data says 315,900 people have died in motor vehicle crashes since 2017

People love to scream "whataboutism" when you point out that cars are still more dangerous than e-bikes/e-motos/e-scooters. But it's not whataboutism to properly contextualize the risk, especially when we are seeing a moral panic that is not commensurate with the threat posed by e-micro mobility.

Two married professors and their son are being held in ICE detention, despite being legal permanent residents and having no criminal records. All, apparently, because their mom/MIL was a translator for the Iranian hostage takers in 1979, before they were even born. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

One Woman’s Message From the Hell of ICE Detention

My husband, son, and I have been locked up for months—despite being permanent residents with no criminal record. It is an unendurable, unending nightmare.

I’ve watching SV-brained, hyper-excitable "founders" trying to tear through manufacturing, medical and other "serious" industries and it’s absolutely mind-bending and -boggling how convinced everyone there is that speed is all that matters, because that’s how software startups work.

there is a tired line of out-of-touch argument from Bluesky leftists that the difference between Rs & Ds is so insignificant that you're just being an "electoralist" if you care which party is in power With you there, in a lot of places. But elections sure as hell do matter in immigration court

Whether it is Meta AI glasses used to harass & covertly film women, Apple AirTags used to track women, Meta algorithms that push sexist ads, Grok AI tools that nudify women's images, tech companies create harassment by design instead of privacy by design. www.irishtimes.com/technology/2...

Women continue to bear the brunt of bad tech decisions

Meta’s smart glasses are just the latest example of technology being used in ways developers should have anticipated

Bro. People are cool as fuck.

It's not just that this is, of course, an insane lie—it's that *just thinking about it for ten seconds*, without looking anything up, should make it screamingly obvious that the claim couldn't possibly be remotely close to true. You have to actively shut your brain off to say stuff like this.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

The grift is just so painful to witness. These are very much solved problems, solved without a need for data centers or internet access or LLMs. The people telling you this shit is inevitable have done so little diligence that it would be embarrassing if they had any self awareness at all.

So illegal. And he brags about it.

Don't get me wrong, I lift every morning. But being a man is not really about how you show up in the gym. It's how you show up for your family. It's about how you show up for your community.

I read that horrible Michael Powell article blaming harm reduction policies for the rise in overdose deaths, and not one does he do the bare minimum of comparing the overdose rates in places with those policies vs in places without them or mention that it's because of the rise of fentanyl.

The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti

yeah, we told you that this exact thing would happen, but you crushed the people who tried telling you while liberals cheered you on.

If this is actually true, they should be spending every day for the rest of their miserable lives condemning the genocide and trying to make things right. Maybe then I’d accept what they’re saying.
