The U.S. struck Iran on Wednesday for a second day in a row,
and Trump is threatening more strikes.
Iran has claimed it launched retaliatory missiles at a U.S. Navy fleet in Bahrain,
as well as at U.S. air bases in Kuwait and Jordan.
Iran has also declared the complete closure of the Strait of Hormuz,
despite claims by the U.S. that it now effectively controls the strait.
Iran’s Foreign Ministry says the U.S. strikes have rendered the ceasefire “practicall…

Oh, look, it’s a dickhead.
Hey, dickhead, how goes?
Being a dickhead, you probably don’t care that Palestinians are blocked from setting up fundraisers for themselves as part of the West’s complicity in Israel’s ongoing genocide. But hey, facts don’t care that you’re a dickhead so it’s still true.
If I could GoFundMe you a fucking conscience, I would.

For those that don't know, I help run a large women in technology chat group on Slack. It's been going for 11 years now! (ask me for an invite if you want one and that's appropriate!)
It has deeply shaped how I think about technology, especially the social side. There is so much embodied knowledge in that community, it's amazing. And it's also such a window into how much the mainstream of technology writing is dominated by men. We talk about it differently! We're much more likely to be critical, and to be critical of the _structures_ in tech. Sometimes that comes off as kneejerk "Ugh BRIAN!" to some of the bullshit men to do women in the workplace, but also embedded underneath is an understanding of rarely-mapped power structures in the field. So much advice out there is written assuming that there is no dissent, no silent frustration, no quiet abandoning the job when the pressures are unresolved. And so much of the tech world, press and on social media alike, has no insight that this attrition even happens.
Women, collectively, though, understand it. We notice the patterns of promotions. We understand the way that if we're in our 40s, we're rather likely to have a manager who is a decade younger than we are, with no particular experience. We notice when men are lauded for spending time with their family instead of work on occasion, but women are expected to be present at all times and rarely seen positively for doing the exact same things.
And yet, any given instance is always shrouded in deniability. The pattern generally holds, but is this one my fault? Do I not measure up? Or is it sexism?
That's what these structures rob from us: we never have the clarity in feedback that it is accurate, that is us that must change. When we stick to our guns, are we being obstinate, or are we correct? That information is denied to us by sexism. It only becomes clear in aggregate, and even then it is very hard to find action to take on it except to acknowledge it and move on.
I don't think people talk about that ambiguity enough: we're always looking for the clear sexism, the man speaking over the women, the trading sexual favors for advancement, the clear pattern of pet-to-threat that so many women experience as they age or gain skill in the field. But the bulk of sexism that we experience is in the structural poisoning of feedback.

The Trump administration is working directly with a powerful Venezuelan leader who is under investigation for an alleged political killing in Chile.
Diosdado Cabello remains the interior and justice minister, even though he is the target of U.S. drug trafficking charges and a $25 million bounty.
🔥Washington exploits the U.S. indictment to ensure Cabello’s cooperation,
while he shields himself with his power over Venezuela’s stability, former officials say.

Migrants who saw man killed by ICE in Houston say he did not ram officers
The three men who were arrested during an immigration operation that resulted in the fatal shooting of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo
said a federal officer fired at them almost immediately after exiting his vehicle
and that at no point did the driver veer in his direction.

Rep. Gabe Amo (D-RI) sounded the alarm about Trump's international diplomacy tactics during a discussion with CNN's John Berman.
"What's clearly happening is Donald Trump ... still can't stop the war that he started,
and Americans are paying the price," said Amo.
"My constituents are paying the price. And people across the region are less safe."
Amo, who sits on the House Armed Services Committee, explained the problem as he saw it…
