John Carpenter's dEF0G 🌁

Security bear will teach pre-schoolers not to have seditious thoughts or conspire with foreign institutions.

Gonna assume this is not voluntary reading. Also gonna assume they have chapters/episodes teaching kids important family values like how to know when their teachers, friends and family members engage in soft resistance and how to turn them in to the police.

I shudder to imagine what the living conditions on such ships will be like, given how bad they are on land where they have easier access to supply chains.

For several days I have been hearing rumors of an ICE detainee death that ICE was not reporting. I've just learned a local journalist has confirmed it and will publish soon. Now I read this and see there are actually TWO deaths ICE is not reporting. www.daylightsandiego.org/ice-detainee...

I wonder if this will apply to the police, who I'm sure would find AI glasses an extremely useful addition to their CCTV AI surveillance system.

I imagine Trump has a similar plan to flee the US if a Democrat wins in 2028 and he doesn't get his ballroom bunker finished in time.

Despite the agency's human resources department saying he hadn’t even been onboarded, Jeremy Lewin oversaw the destruction of USAID. It’s not clear he had the legal authority to do so.

I genuinely don't think "Arabs were doing some really important work a thousand years ago" is a good rebuttal to RFK's racism. Tawakkol Karman won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2011. Omar M. Yaghi won the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 2005. Maryam Mirzakhani won the Fields Medal in 1977.

As a Hongkonger, this hits hard.

It's really damning. The accusations are numerous and well-supported. But I was really struck by the descriptions of Trump's behavior -- the name dropping, strong-arming, and attempts to buy off silence. His gross rivalry with Epstein. It's all so familiar. It's shit he's been doing his entire life.

Kind of funny, in an Ancient Greek Hell kind of way, that this guy handed Trump the presidency in 2016, and as a reward Trump is kicking him in the teeth forever. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

China’s first AI-generated theatrical film, ‘Sanxingdui: Future Past’, has bombed at their domestic box office, only making $121,000 USD against a budget of $1.5M USD. In contrast, the crudely animated ‘Niu Lai’ made nearly $10M USD against a budget of $200-500 USD.

My main question is whether this is common practice. Like, for example, if a police officer is injured by a triad member or other criminal in the line of duty, do they also sue them for damages? Is that even a thing? Or is it only for protesters? And if so, why? Legit question.

I think this is very important to understand. If you can limit the rights of trans ppl, you can do it to anyone.

Oh.

Neil Young Hits Trump With $10M Lawsuit for Playing ‘Rockin’ in the Free World’ at Rally — Again

I wondered. I passed by Jardine House on my way to class and saw the emergency vehicles and a big crowd on the footbridge, then I saw some ppl with their phones pointed up. I was in a hurry so I didn't stop to look. I wondered if it might be a jumper. Glad it wasn't, and glad the workers are okay.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

I wonder if Eric Chan knows how much a hotel room costs in Hong Kong. I don't think he does.

Wow, they removed the pay wall for ... THIS muddle-headed fear mongering. Funny what gets framed as 'legitimate concerns' and what gets framed as hateful (of western civilization )'geievances'.

Agreed. Most whataboutism masquerades as calling out hypocrisy, but to me it always comes across as using that hypocrisy to justify whatever terrible policy or atrocity they're accused of.

Dracula is like a standard that’s had a million jazz covers. You know the melody and the changes; the interest is in seeing what someone does with it.

Special arrangements could have been made to preserve a bit of Hong Kong's culture and history, but the government is incapable of doing anything other than paving things over with concrete.

I'm still picking my jaw up off the floor over five officers hearing an alleged shoplifter is running and exploding out into the parking lot with guns drawn like they just heard zombie Charles Manson was spotted.

Hello, new followers. I track ICE flights and third-country removals at @prospect.org. This is what the ICE Air operation looked like yesterday, Oct. 23, 2026. --88 flights --14 removal stops --3 third-country removal stops --Nearly all adult passengers shackled at the ankles, wrists & waist.

When a sex worker experiences violence, the hardest part of asking for help may be deciding whom to trust. A Woman Named Sarah- Sarah knows about the National Human Trafficking Hotline. She's heard about helping victims escape exploitation Now she's wondering whether the hotline is meant for her

Great news for those of you who want to be as hyper-obsessed with a mostly non-existent threat as GovHK is 👍🫡

“A 79-year-old CO pastor who lost 35 pounds and the strength to walk after 13 months in immigration detention has been released by order of a federal magistrate judge. The government ignored requests for a wheelchair. Instead, 3 other detainees carried Rev. Edward Nalwamba to a waiting vehicle.”

It's cute when some ppl who don't live in Hong Kong say life in Hong Kong hasn't changed since the NSL was pushed on us, because it most definitely has.

Service members, contractors, and military families are now coming forward with images they say the Pentagon hid, and the accounts behind them are brutal. From Saudi Arabia to Kuwait to Jordan, American bases were pummeled by Iranian drones and missiles. meidasnews.com/news/so-much...
