UNFORGIVEABLE: A Minnesota doctor just revealed Renée Good still had a pulse 8 minutes after she was shot by an ICE agent.
A physician on scene offered to administer aid and was denied.
In any courtroom, preventing medical aid after using deadly force isn’t just cruel, it’s an aggravating factor.

A man has been arrested and accused of leaving his 6-year-old daughter asleep outside a Target store overnight to hold his place in line for Pokémon cards.
Witnesses said that he gave his daughter a pillow and blanket sometime after 1 a.m. before leaving. wapo.st/48FBVXU

Let this sink in: ICE agents reportedly blocked the emergency entrance of a Los Angeles hospital for TWO HOURS, forcing ambulances carrying people who needed emergency care to go elsewhere.
This isn’t law enforcement. This is a reckless abuse of power that put innocent people’s lives at risk.
An ambulance entrance is not a political battleground. A hospital emergency room is not an immigration checkpoint.
And federal agents do not get to hold an entire community’s access to emergency medical care hostage.
Imagine being in an ambulance, fighting for your life, only to be diverted because federal agents decided their operation mattered more than emergency access.
Where is the humanity? Where is the accountability? And where is the line that these agents are no longer allowed to cross?
You cannot claim to be protecting America while putting Americans’ lives in danger.
This isn’t making America great. It’s making America cruel. And anyone defending this should be ashamed.

Young Black women in rural Mississippi are trying like hell to make sure no ballot gets thrown out unfairly in the Scott Colom race. They are DMing friends and chasing down people who need to verify their IDs. My story (gift link) on the phenomenon: wapo.st/4AbqTpg

Just saying
SpaceX and Tesla have prospered in Texas, because we were not constantly operating under an oppressive and extractive state government.
And I need to be close to the factories, so that I can walk the floor in person. That’s why the first major SpaceX factory was in LA and first major Tesla factory was in SF Bay Area.
As California became increasingly difficult, due to extreme taxes and overregulation, we moved our major domestic expansions and HQ to Texas.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is trying to rehab his image as he leaves office to poise himself for a 2028 Presidential run. NEVER let the public forget that he built a concentration camp in the middle of the Everglades and called it Alligator Alcatraz… and then SOLD MERCH.

Members of a children hospital’s window-washing team in Texas dressed up as superheroes to surprise patients.
Children were greeted by window washers dressed as Spider-Man, an astronaut and even as firefighters, who waved and climbed down the hospital windows.

RFK Jr. and his antivaccine lies did this and yes, we want him to pay for it. Unfortunately, due to decreased herd immunity more children will get it.

Bir biyolog, ormandaki bir mantarın biyolojik aktivitesini synthesizer’a bağladı. Mantardan gelen sinyaller, enstrümandan müzik olarak duyuldu.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Bu video Bionic and the Wires sanat projesinden. Bir biyolog değil sanatçılar tarafından yapılmış kurulumdur; mantarın biyoelektrik sinyalleri robotik kolları tetikleyerek enstrümandan müzik üretir.

NYC has a moratorium on student facing AI for K through 8th grade.
Google says we are going to force you to break your own rules, you can't have search without AI.
NYC must call Google's bluff, kick out search, and refer the case to the AG and DA for illegal tying and abuse of monopoly power.
The idea that any other Ed Tech company could say "you only get the tool you want if you break your own policies" would be nonsense.
