@trabern And they're firing bus and train operators in LA who refuse to let ICE raid the buses.

Just like the shit my grandparents and uncles went through in the Zoot Suit Incident in 1943. When goons raided buses, streetcars and businesses to beat up Black and Latino people, regardless of whether they had on a suit or not.

That's why I'm holding off on going back home to visit the graves of my family. https://lapublicpress.org/2025/08/la-metro-ice-fired-retaliation-protest/

His "face just didn't look right. 'Man, my hair looks strange', he says. 'And the closer I looked it almost seemed like I was wearing makeup.' … 'am just I imagining things?'" 

It turns out, he wasn't. In recent months, YouTube has secretly used artificial intelligence (AI) to tweak people's videos.

… some disturbed YouTubers say it gives their content a subtle and unwelcome AI-generated feeling."

The fascist insurrectionist criminals have taken over our government. They must be removed and held accountable. They are the ones who should be in jail.

So, I was listening to a French podcast on Arte Radio called "Un podcast à soi" (your own podcast). The podcast is centered on feminism.

The episode speaks about consenting and the tile is "Giving in is not consenting."

Near the end, the voice says:

“I’ve thought a lot about the pressure to be heterosexual that Adrienne Rich talked about.

The fact that I had heterosexual relationships, then was in a relationship with a man until I was 35, without realizing that I was a lesbian. I didn’t force myself. I experienced moments of happiness.

But I wasn't in the right place. And I didn't have the opportunity to choose, because nothing else was available to me. Everything was foggy, invisible.

I consented to heterosexuality without desiring it.”

This makes me think about masking.

Many autistics don't decide to mask. It's often unconscious. Autistics had/have fun, good time because it's the norm. It's how neuronormativity want us to have fun, good time. But, as said in the citation, they are not at the right place, experiencing the right emotion, feelings. They experienced normative ones.

This topic of consenting is important. Do we consent to neuronormativity without desiring it? Nobody ask autistics if they consent to not be themselves.

"In Printz v. United States (1997), Justice Scalia wrote that the federal government “cannot require states and localities to carry out its immigration policy.”"

The worst lawyer in America is mad that GOP senators told the truth for once.

Is there any other explanation? You don’t have to like or respect John Bolton to know what it was.

#JBPritzker said in a statement Saturday night after this story was published that the state of #Illinois had received “no requests or outreach from the #FederalGovernment asking if we need assistance, & we have made no requests for federal intervention.”

He added that there is “no emergency that warrants the President of the United States federalizing the Illinois #NationalGuard, deploying the National Guard from other states, or sending active duty #military within our own borders.”

#Illinois Gov #JBPritzker & #Chicago Mayor #BrandonJohnson, both #Democrats, hit back at #Trump in comments Friday….

“After using #LosAngeles & #WashingtonDC as his testing ground for #authoritarian #overreach, Trump is now openly flirting with the idea of taking over other #states & #cities. Trump’s goal is to incite fear in our communities & destabilize existing public safety efforts—all to create a justification to further abuse his power,” Pritzker said.

WELKER: “Are the Russians stringing Trump along?” VANCE: “No not at all.” REALITY: Of course they are. Russian State TV laughs about it out loud. ASK: “How long will you let them? And why let them walk all over you?” (Also, Russia has made no concessions)

I lost my Mom to pancreatic cancer when I was 19. She was only 47.

My grandmother also died from it at 53.

When Mom was diagnosed, she sat me down and said she knew exactly what I was feeling because she felt the same way when her Mom was dying.

She said she hated knowing that her girls were going to grow up without a mom.

She wasn’t afraid of dying, but she was afraid of leaving us behind.

She was sad that she would miss major milestones like graduations, marriage, grandchildren etc.

She wanted more time.

Unfortunately pancreatic cancer is quick and lethal.

It’s almost always caught too late, and few people live more than a year after diagnosis.

My Mom made it nine months.

I’m forever grateful for the time we had together and the fact that she prepared me for her passing. But I wanted more

The mRNA pancreatic cancer vaccine was a beacon of hope for my family.

It was hope for so many whose lives have been touched by this deadly disease. Who’ve lost loved ones.

Who live with the fear of being diagnosed themselves.

There’s no words for the rage I feel when I think about RFK Jr’s decision to cut funding for this life saving research.

His anti-vaxx grift has already killed and disabled many people. Measles is back. Covid is still here and still killing.

Now he’s basically siding with cancer.

We deserve better than this.

We deserve an HHS leader who actually believes in science.

We deserve leaders who promote life saving interventions, robust public health and cutting edge research.

Shame on him and everyone who supports him.
