Six people legally living in the US and legally traveling for work were disappeared by the US government and the only reason we knew about it was because one woman was family friends with a county commissioner and her cell phone pinged to two detention centers.

Skokie woman held by Border Patrol at O’Hare - Evanston Now Family says she was released Saturday morning from detention center in Wisconsin after nearly 48 hours.

Sunny was held at O'Hare, then seemingly taken to Broadview, where CBP lied to Rep. Krishnamoorthi (saying she had been released at O'Hare) and to Cook County officials (saying she was never there). Meanwhile, she had been taken to Wisconsin. And we don't know where her non-citizen coworkers are.

This is weird and chilling. Where is Sunny?!

Update from Broadview where Morrison told me CBP told Raja Krishnamoorthi and him that she was released last night

But Morrison said CBP now says she was never detained despite her phone pinning at Broadview as of around 9pm

“I have usernames older than you.”.
Holy shit

Happy birthday Chicago!

"Come and show me another city with lifted head singing so proud to be alive and coarse and strong and cunning."

"Welcome back to the end of the world"

The collapse of the US National Science Foundation

US military says three of its troops killed in first Iran operation casualties Three U.S. service members have been killed and another five have been seriously wounded, in the first casualties of the unfolding U.S. operations against Iran, the U.S. military said on Sunday.

Reports indicate at least 100 children have already been killed in strikes on schools. That is unconscionable.

Three U.S. service members are dead as a result of this entirely preventable war of choice.

The blood of these service members, these children, and every civilian rests in Trump’s hands.

I love Fletcher's flower crown! Did he get it from Skye Blue? 😍 #aewcollision

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

winter sun shines high above a circular still water tank at a sewage treatment plant. The sky is blue with puffy clouds and brick buildings are on the distant horizon. the sky and sun reflect off the water in the tank. the foreground seemingly connects to the distant buildings as a catwalk on the left extends from out-of-frame bottom towards the horizon.

sewage is water with life experience.

it reflects the choices we make and carries with it the residue of our yesterdays and years.

it can unsettle us—until we realize it was once a part of us. our pasts make us who we are today.

and can inspire us to be better tomorrow.

Don't vote for Raja, my fellow Illinois people! (I'm going to vote for @julianastratton.bsky.social)

Lost 19th century film by Méliès discovered at the Library | Timeless Library conservators recently made a startling discovery in a batch of decaying film reels -- a long-lost 1897 film by early cinema icon George Méliès. The French magician-turned-filmmaker's

"The 45-second film, made around 1897, was the first appearance on film of what might be called a robot"

HELL. YES.

How Brothel Workers in Nevada Just Made Labor History The courtesans at Sheri’s Ranch were staring down a horrifying new contract. So they did what workers everywhere do: They got organized.

When faced with a shockingly exploitative new employment contract that would’ve forced them to sign away their IP, their likeness rights, and their power of attorney, Jupiter Jetson and her coworkers at Sheri’s fought back—fast.

They organized a union in SIX DAYS. www.thenation.com/article/econ...

I deleted the post below because Hoylman posted an updated version stating: "UPDATE: ICE used a phony missing persons bulletin for a 5 year old girl. It is unconfirmed at this time whether they impersonated an officer to do so."

kat abughazaleh lands a jim-style camera take during the debate

@katmabu.bsky.social lands a well-timed "do you believe this shit?" camera take while biss and fine bicker about ad spends

btw for trans women to offer this kind of practical warning and sympathy is a serious mitzvah and we cis women really owe it to them (and to ourselves!) to step up our solidarity in kind

It's going to cost money for these teens to defend themselves in court. There's a GoFund Me to help: www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with...
