Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two donβt know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agentβs life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

CondΓ© Nast forgot to renew the trademark for Gourmet and so a group of journalists grabbed it and are relaunching the food magazine as a worker-owned co-op. Love it. [gourmetmagazine.net]
Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.
Get your war on 3: ok I hate to act like a fucking dumbass but are we at war? I mean, did we ever officially declare war? Declare war? Who's got time to declare war when there are so many bombs to drop

Feels like spitting into a hurricane but I think I'm going to drop a video with a very generous discount code onto social media in the next day or two and see if I can lure some folks into the coffee fold for Black Friday.
This is a real image of a real thing that exists in the universe! And because a bunch of humans decided to get together and build a space telescope, we get to see it! π€―

As someone who gets a lot of emails from publicists, they usually donβt own any of the photos and wonβt pay for anything if itβs not part of a big marketing campaign. They often have deals with photogs that rely on the outlets (eg wikipedia) paying the photogs or Getty.
