There is no way to reduce deportations without a substantial defunding of law enforcement in rural areas, who have long operated like a baronial class unto themselves.

This is happening all over rural America. We need to wake up, people. There's no Greg Bovino in his Nazi coat to blow whistles it. It's daily Gestapo-type terror, aided by the banality of evil local cops www.sltrib.com/news/2026/10...

It's bonkers how "User agreements" are actually binding contracts where one party gets to change them whenever and however they wish and the other party has the options to agree or to stop using computers.

I wonder if I have been added to mute/block lists as of late. The level of engagement with posts has become almost zero from eight months ago.

Meta has enabled Muse to build extensive and ever-growing profiles on the orbit of people in a user’s life. Based on user input but also “publicly available information.” Whether that means a web search, Facebook’s own extensive data, or buying data broker info…we don’t know? And we can’t opt out.

Millions have downloaded Meta’s AI agent Muse. But getting it to do your bidding comes with privacy costs.

A key component of the Cambridge Analytica outrage was your friends subjecting you to data theft without your consent or knowledge. Facebook is running the same playbook on your text messages. Even if you’re not on Meta properties, they’re ingesting your interactions.

I am disgusted by the appearance of white nationalists on the Tkʼemlúps te Secwépemc reserve. This is happening just days before the National Day for Truth & Reconciliation. I stand with Indigenous communities & all marginalized communities in the fight for a future free from racist intimidation.

The fact that every major news outlet includes vocal tics and hesitations when it’s a woman saying “like” and not when it’s a man saying “um” is itself wicked telling.

“This country has never elected a female president. Why are we pretending that this is not a factor?” Ocasio-Cortez said with a laugh. “That doesn’t make it impossible, but to act as though it’s not a factor in anything ever is really a form of, like, denialism” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/22/u...

always, always ALWAYS have your own website - do not rely solely on social media and do not hand anything over to platforms like tapas/webtoons/etc. i cannot stress this enough!!!!!!

The "female slop" draws your artwork, writes your stories, creates your fursuits and much, much more. Get over yourself. Misogyny is a gross look, whether you're straight or gay or bi or other.

Cane Saito@canemckeyton.bsky.social · 2w ago

So, the Dragon Wash game hinted at a future female dragon update and holy shit, the gay misogyny is disgusting, but let's be real here, absolutely not surprising when it comes to furries :\

You can’t be “apolitical” while being a member of the species that invented politics, whose every action or inaction affects the political landscape. The term you are looking for is “willfully ignorant.” Or “complicit.”

There are a lot of people who think their parents got their brains destroyed by Fox News, but somehow they’re not getting their brains destroyed by staying on Twitter.
