“Refuge, the UK’s largest specialist domestic violence organisation, has revealed that referrals to its Technology-Facilitated Abuse and Economic Empowerment team rose by more than 62% in 2025 compared with the previous year.”
mom and pop operated NAS shop. everyone in town knows john and marla, they run the last local cloud storage business. fifteen fifty a month gets you an honest 24 terabytes. pretty good deal and marla keeps a bottle of tanqueray behind server rack 44 if you happen by

I'd love a long read on exactly what in God's name happened to the ADL

The federal government has a massive database with sensitive info for every kid involved in a state child support case -- and the current addresses of many single moms who survived domestic abuse.
So of course, Trump's DHS wants full access to it.

Why do “whole milk” and “oat milk” have to sound so similar?
It’s not a cult, say the people wearing the exact same shoes and have a closet full of bright, red ties.
That Dem consultants told Gov. Walz to stop calling them “weird” still has me miffed.
One of the reasons I keep saying: don’t fund ICE or CPB is the Democrats have to get out of the business of enabling the Republican’s disastrous mistakes. We have this insane agency because George W. Bush ignored a quite evident terrorist attack.
Last week of leave and baby is in daycare - what crazy thing should I do?
Gas issues will be bad for farmers but apparently war-related fertilizer issues may be even worse?
And that's not even getting into whatever labor issues they may face thanks to DHS/ICE terrorism
New video footage shows a US Tomahawk missile hitting an IRGC facility in Minab, Iran, on Feb 28, showing for the first time that the US struck the area. The footage also shows smoke already rising from the vicinity of the girls’ school, where 175 people were reportedly killed, including children.
regardless of if they're misogynists or genuinely nice guys, a lot of men assume sexism looks like catcalling and sexual advances. distinct actions that people either do or don't do
to any men seeing this post, read this paragraph. live in it for a while. imagine finding this experience everywhere.

Picture of DOGE guy Nate Cavanaugh
Screenshot of my DOGE letter “Dr. Joseph Rezek Dear NEH Grantee, This letter provides notice that the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH) is terminating your federal grant (Grant Application No. FEL29509824) effective April 3, 2025, in accordance with the termination clause in your Grant Agreement. Your grant no longer effectuates the agency's needs and priorities and conditions of the Grant Agreement and is subject to termination due to several reasonable causes, as outlined in 2CFR§200.340. For instance, NEH has reasonable cause to terminate your grant in light of the fact that the NEH is repurposing its funding allocations in a new direction in furtherance of the President's agenda. The President's February 19, 2025 executive order mandates that the NEH eliminate all non-statutorily required activities and functions. See Commencing the Reduction of the Federal Bureaucracy, E.O. 14217 (Feb. 19, 2025). Your grant's immediate termination is necessary to safeguard the interests of the federal government, including its fiscal priorities. Any objections or appeals to this termination will be managed in strict accordance with the President's Executive Orders,
Last year, this guy (left) from DOGE used ChatGPT to find NEH grants that were too “DEI” for Trump, and canceled them, including mine, as shown by the letter I received last April (right). Huge new NYT article on the back story link below
CBS obtained video of the DHS killing of an unarmed man in Texas that DHS concealed for nearly a year, which clearly contradicts claims that he violently rammed anyone. He is shot with his brake lights on, car not moving or barely moving. Another DHS crime.
you cant teach this. either you have it or you don't.
if only they had listened to ANY OF US THAT KEPT FUCKING SAYING THIS.
Imagine writing ”we gave 12 hours of two inches of internet space to the US government murdering 150 children for no reason” thinking that would help your cause
The Cranberries Zombie came on so I took the opportunity to educate my baby on the Troubles and their ancestry. Starting young is important!

🚨 THIS IS NOT A DRILL. kristi noem is doing a live speech right now and doesn't know she was fired. 🚨
Whether or not this failing is Claude’s fault I think is arguable—the information in this system is coming from the military’s data sources via Palantir, but of course LLM “reasoning” is hard to interpret. The real question is why Anthropic is doing this business at all.
from ICE to Iran, people in the US are far more concerned with doing the bad thing the "right way" than they are not doing the bad thing... crazy how much ppl have been primed to respond to harm with professionalization rather than.. ceasing inflicting the harm
Really important context re: Jared Polis hinting at clemency for Tina Peters.
If Polis is interested in people who were over-sentenced and/or are unjustly incarcerated, well, he’s had eight years to act on that. And he has lots of prime, non-Peters opportunities waiting now right in front of him:
This report does a fantastic job of documenting a ridiculous crisis - there are only two ways out, arrest fewer people or hire more public defenders. Jdxs are going to have to do one or the other and continuing to drag their feet is only going to make the situation worse.
Baby started daycare yesterday and the dogs are distraught.
