Apparently (I wasn’t part of the group, got the report when I arrived on the scene) there was a caravan of multiple vehicles following ICE. Several ICE vehicles cut dangerously into the caravan and forced the observers’ cars to stop. That’s when they smashed the person’s window and took them.
It sounds like multiple people got video. I hope you don’t see it, for the safety of those whose faces might appear in the video. But I hope you believe me anyway. This is all really happening.
To all those keeping the cats/bits/code flowing over the holidays, I wish you a quiet, peaceful and uneventful time.
This is Bryan. Once a week, he takes a shelter pup on a New York City adventure in his ‘Adopt Me’ backpack, hoping someone will fall in love. He films their big day out, and almost every dog he’s featured has found a forever home.

In the time I've been offline, I've been doing a lot and feeling a lot more mentally healthy. I've been exploring nomadnet a bit, looking at reticulum. I'm definitely going to go back to my break and being online much less regularly.
I actually totally forgot about the anniversary of the shooting, which is the first time that's happened since... uh... the shooting, I think.
I've definitely realized that, on some level, I've definitely used Mastodon (and formerly Twitter) as a coping mechanism, often in order to deal with the stressful things that I've found out about on Mastodon or Twitter.
But, again, none of those things really change our core job: build community. And that's part of what I've been neglecting, and what I can focus on more when I'm not spending as much time talking to people all over the world indirectly. Like, I can just chat directly with folks and talk about this shit.
Yeah, I do think there's value in this community. I don't think it's really screaming into the void (at least, not most of the time). But I know that I need the balance to be way farther on the side of direct engagement with comrades doing and building.
So that's what I'm gonna go back to. I feel as though it's a good sign that with all the writing about getting shot that I've been doing, and all the thinking about that, that the actual anniversary of the shooting I'm actually just thinking about bread.
And that seems like a good note to leave on. I'm gonna go back to some hacker shit.
@… Definitely. I know a very talented singer-songwriter in the Washington DC area who has released 3 CDs and has a devoted but very small following. Her last CD was probably 9 years ago and it's still one of my favorites.
Hš vinte anos atršs, eu achava que 480p era uma resolução ótima para vídeos e que somente filmes muito específicos (com fotografia excepcional) justificavam o uso de resolução de 720p, que ocupava muito espaço no HD/CD. Mas agora hš pouco estava assistindo um videoclip da Loreena McKennitt em resolução 480p na minha TV de 42 polegadas e mal conseguia distinguir as imagens.
Em parte isso é porque nossos cérebros ficaram muito acostumado a imagens em alta resolução. Mas, principalmente, c…

Imagine being so exhausted you can barely stand, yet thousands of people are waiting for you to give everything you have. Night after night. City after city.
There's a singer who knows this feeling intimately. After months of touring, she's running on empty—traveling by day, performing by night, adrenaline keeping her wired long after the final encore. Sleep won't come. The body is exhausted, but the mind won't stop. She captures this feeling in a song about desperate ti…
