We've seen another morning of increased ICE activity with DHS helicopter out and about in Chicagoland.

Feds have taken people from Humboldt Park and Ravenswood. Vehicles also seen in Rogers Park. ICE watchers are asking north side neighbors to get outside and keep an eye on landscapers & laborers.

To be clear here, they didn't just rape a man, they raped him with a knife and filmed it. They've been doing this for decades. Sometimes they use electrical prods instead. They do this to children, regularly, as has been documented by numerous human rights groups.

Anna’s hummingbird is perched on the edge of a diagonal twig in front of blue sky. His beak points upward, his face and neck are brilliant shiny pink, and his tail feathers are flared straight out around him. His body and tail feathers are a mix of green, gray, and white. His wings stick out to the sides.

The protests worked. They won the right to rape.

'AI Is African Intelligence': The Workers Who Train AI Are Fighting Back Kenyan workers are still the underpaid labor behind AI training, moderation, and sex chatbots. The Data Labelers Association is fighting back.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

I planted 300 bulbs and there are now holes EVERYWHERE

A hole in the ground where a plant bulb used to be.

I was wondering my flowers in the back hadn't come up yet, they are the only ones you can see from in the house, thus the ones I was most excited about. Seems I spent a lot of time and energy planting very expensive squirrel food.

there is a child-like naivety to the way business leaders approach sociopolitical problems that would be really sweet if it wasn't coming from the leader of a company with 30,000 employees and 3 billion dollars in revenue

on the bright side i can't imagine losing a democratic primary against ilhan omar as an ICE lawyer is much work at all

What my cheese drawer sees at 9pm

Time for my nightly rampage wherein I rip open every cabinet, drawer, fridge and freezer looking for food I know I don't have because I already did this sun-tues

the important thing i think is that they get comfortable now with living in federal facilities

I feel this strongly: I don't care. I am DISGUSTED that 175 little girls are dead and that thousands are dead across the region and that 1 million people are displaced in Lebanon alone. THIS IS EVIL.

This would kill you

I'd like to see what the houses look like that took 8" hail yesterday. Buckshot on an old roof.

I am operating under the assumption that in addition to my mother's election ballot, my invitation to Live Más Live: A Night at The Palladium was lost in the mail.

They sell Fresh Pet cheaper than anywhere else

Third, I will boycott but I am doing Chili's a solid. I go maybe every 2 years and abuse the bottomless chips + salsa.

Transgender Chili’s manager fired over ‘personal values and lifestyle,’ lawsuit says Exclusive: Hudson Webber claims a store manager said another employee at a different location was being terminated ‘for the same reasons’

First of all Rosemont is not a real city, it's a hole full of garbage that corporate headquarters grow out of next to O'Hare airport. Secondly the author is too dumb to maintain consistent pronouns beyond few paragraphs despite writing "uses they/them pronouns" with their own two hands.

I don't understand how the author opens with "A transgender man working..." followed by "uses they/them pronouns" only to immediately misgender them.

The correct pronouns are literally right there in front of your eyes, you just fucking wrote them.

Photo of a cuneiform tablet fragment shaped a bit like an irregular diamond. It preserves nearly 20 incomplete lines of text separated by a horizontal ruling

There's a broken cuneiform tablet from the Old Babylonian period, nearly 4,000 years ago, which preserves a tiny portion of a dialogue between two friends.

It feels a bit like the conversations I've been having for the past week, so I wanted to share it.

AI cameras are everywhere — and people are paying the price for their mistakes Flock Safety's license plate readers are used by police in thousands of communities. When the cameras make mistakes, the consequences can be severe.

“In a dozen instances, misreads by Flock's automated license plate readers, or a lack of verification by officers, resulted in people who hadn't committed crimes being stopped at gunpoint, sent to jail, or mauled by a police dog, among other outcomes.”

I've been sitting here googling whether I need to cover my sprouting spring flowers. Everything says, 32 degrees is fine, and I said ok, but how about 12 degrees
