Workers are struggling to get by. The government should be using every tool to fight discrimination that costs people jobs and pay. Instead, the EEOC is bent on erasing the data that proves discrimination exists. (Surprise.) Boost or take action and submit a comment of your own to the EEOC. https://equalrights.quorum.us/campaign/166996/

New obssession: *Diarra from Detroit* If you took Nancy Drew and the Scooby Doo gang, made her Black, put her in Detroit, made her an elder Millennial, gave her an insatiable desire to investigate things, added a hot boyfriend with ptsd from being kidnapped as a child, and tossed in some noir touches you'd get this show.

WHYYYY has no enterprising and 'fuck-it' journalist camped out in the bushes waiting to get a shot of this man supposedly being 'discharged'? We wouldn't be in this fascist mess if more people weren't so fucking full of chicken shit. Jesus christ, we used to stalk ex boyfriends better than this. https://www.salon.com/2026/08/06/suspicious-mcconnell-hospital-discharge-revives-conspiracy-theories/

AIPAC//Izzy desperately wishes none of us saw what we saw. Sadly, they can eff off because we DID. We saw it. We ARE seeing it. They may have succeeded in cutting the balls off the DNC, the GOP, the ICC, the UN, the US, Germany, and the UK but they can't get all of us. I wish #Abdul4Senate EVERY success in his road to the Senate.

"Today, more Americans identify as pro-choice than they did before Dobbs. And ... more Americans are now taking absolutist positions. They support legal access to abortion in all or most cases and oppose government regulation altogether." https://theconversation.com/public-opinion-on-abortion-has-shifted-4-years-after-dobbs-decision-overturned-roe-v-wade-285668?utm_medium=article_clipboard_share&utm_source=theconversation.com

Watching the growing activation of newly mobilized HOA-like communities against data centers: That's how you harness the Power of Karen (tm) for good. If they will wreck you for mowing your lawn on a Sunday, what the frack do you think they're going to do when someone puts a data center literally across the golf course?

Republicans are the MOST unserious of politicos.

Benson begged to have a walk. We go outside. He pees. He sniffs. He immediately nopes out after half a block. We turned back and so here we are. On the stairs enjoying the breeze until he feels spiritually motivated to amble upstairs or our dinner arrives. (I felt like Filipino food from FOB tonight.) #BensonUpdate #friday

Todd Blanche calls the $1.8B slush fund dead. The money says otherwise: two days before his own confirmation vote, his DOJ cut a $1M check from that fund to a man convicted of blocking access to an abortion clinic. Trump's tax audit immunity—part of the same settlement deal—is already locked in too, which is why Blanche refuses to put anything in writing. There’s a reason members of own party have postponed his confirmation vote. Nobody trusts this man. Keep the pressure on Congress. #B...

A media literacy moment. I saw the original video. In it, the woman filming is telling her friend not to say anything, not to give the #ICE officers anything, and also telling the ICE officer who looks like Tom Steyer to back off and stop threatening to arrest her since she's not doing anything wrong. The ICE officers take her friend through a different door leading back to the tarmac and everyone panics because it's clear once she's through that door anything could happen to her. T...

This video shows an entire armored vehicle being used for an ICE grab in a Phoenix, AZ residential neighborhood. No warrant. No identification. Everyone masked and unidentifiable. Grabbing brown people. I wasn't able to download the video so don't get at me for sharing the insta link.

Yesterday afternoon a man on a motorcycle made a u-turn in front of me and Benson and stopped his bike. Him: Hey, you have a good looking dog. Me: Thanks. Him: (turning off his motor) Can I give him a treat? Me: Um sure. Kinda random. Him: Well, world peace has to start somewhere. He handed me some extra treats and rode off after he gave one to Benson. #BensonUpdate #kindness

I'm crying on the stairs. Isabel and her friends and family said goodbye to her doggo Simon in the very best way. I hope I can send Benson across his 🌈 bridge half as well. These little creatures mean so much to us. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DbOZicUs5nl/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==

Is it safe to assume that ICE's numbers have been ticking upward lately because their quiet snatch+grabs require data sharing with local PD's Flock systems?

In this doc about activists fighting to stop refineries and pipelines in their backyards, a Black woman, Roishetta, asked what she needs to do to convince those not with them to join them. And I said (to Benson), "Make it a data center." #EnvironmentalRacism

Literally no one has asked for this. WHY does a company of weirdos want a tech to detect mood? WHO is going to be the most likely target of such a tech? WHO is invested in surveilling moods like 'anger'? https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/meta-patent-detects-mood-constantly-analyzing-voice
