Don’t violate your policies? Well I’m at least one former Spotify listener who believes morals should be above profits. Spotify is no longer allowed in my home or devices. www.stereogum.com/2327132/spot...

However much you think your data is being collected by police, you're probably underestimating it. The actual scale is mind-bending. And it's tempting to think "oh well I don't do crimes so whatever" but what about if and when your beliefs, associations, or speech becomes a crime?

I spent the week at the police surveillance convention and let me tell you my biggest observation: The name of the game now is consolidating as much information as humanely possible from surveillance devices, the internet, other governmental data, and literally a million other places. 🧵

HBO’s short satirical series,The Regime, is an overlooked gem. Its funny, complicated but unlikable characters, and uncomfortable pitch-black humor re: a fictional charismatic dictator is particularly relevant in the current environment. #TheRegime #HBO #satire #fascism

Excellent point. We’re acting like there are still journalists in the room. They were kicked out a while ago, only leaving trump toadies behind.

Well, yes, they can because Trump has banished all the media who dare to question him. They're not allowed in his pressers, not allowed on AF One, nowhere. So he gets the coverage he wants and we all suffer the consequences.

So many problems caused by “Big Balls”

So the incidence rate of carjacking in DC is 5.1/100,000 residents. The incidence of car accident in DC (2022/23) 22,000/443000 registered drivers = 4966/100,000. So he doesn’t buckle up because he feels safer? The problem with being a lying idiot.

To reiterate: there is no legitimate justification for this. Violent crime is at a 30-year low in D.C.

"So we're getting this information from multiple sources [...] within the mayor's office and within Metro Police Department, that President Trump, come tomorrow, will deploy the National Guard along the streets of DC." www.wusa9.com/video/news/n...

JFC. What level of hell is this? At least with GITMO they had a cover story. Not sure how torturing pregnant women and day laborers “makes America great again.” I guess they’ve given up on plausible deniability when they ceded their humanity.

NEW: Records of hundreds of emergency calls from ICE detention centers obtained by WIRED—including audio recordings—show a system inundated by life-threatening incidents, delayed treatment, and overcrowding. Unpaywalled from @dell.bsky.social and @dmehro.bsky.social:

#ProudBlue Thom Tillis knew that if he voted against the “Big Ugly Bill”, the #convictedfelon would “punish” him. Instead, Tillis stated that he will not run again for his senate seat. By not running for the Senate again, he beat #convictedfelon at his own game. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 apple.news/ACRx6n205S06...

Vaccination schedules on the CDC website have already started changing under RFK Jr. So we published a guide to the evidence-based vaccine recommendations in place *before* all 17 members of the advisory panel were abruptly dismissed by the new admin. www.scientificamerican.com/article/see-... 🧪

I’m hearing rumors that thousands of people are calling the ICE tip line to report little green men and other aliens from outer space. That’s not why ICE set up this number, so you should absolutely NOT call that tip line to report those types of aliens. 👽 I repeat—do NOT call the below number! ☎️
