Supporting our immigrant neighbors in Maine and across the Northeast.

"Operation Catch of the Day" has swept through Portland and Lewiston, abducting nearly 50 community members. School attendance has dropped. Families are afraid to leave their homes.

Being a Spotify customer in 2025 is nothing to celebrate, that’s why we’re calling on listeners, musicians, and labels to commit to boycotting Spotify instead of providing free PR through sharing their Wrapped content.

Dark-mode interface of a note-taking app called β€œOpen Outliner.” The screen shows a sidebar with a calendar, navigation links, and a saved project, alongside an outline view listing nested bullet points about app ideas, features like encryption and gallery views, and a small bugs section.

I've been wanting to get in on the #BuildinPublic trend because I see so many people posting cool stuff and I wanted to try making something. Building my own end-to-end encrypted infinite outliner + journaling app.

For example, on August 21, 2025, plain-clothed and unidentified federal agents arrested Mr. Escobar Molina without a warrant while he was getting in his truck to go to work. They did not ask for his name or his identification or ask anything about his immigration status, where he lives, whom he lives with, how long he has lived here, or anything else about his ties to the community. The agents immediately handcuffed Mr. Escobar Molina, grabbed him by the arms and legs, and called him β€œillegal” repeatedly. When he responded that he has β€œpapers” (in other words, immigration status), they replied, β€œNo you don’t. You are illegal.” After the agents put Mr. Escobar Molina into a vehicle, when Mr. Escobar Molina told them again that he had β€œpapers,” the driver of the car yelled at him, β€œShut up, bitch! You’re illegal.” The agents did not make an individualized determination about Mr. Escobar Molina’s immigration status or flight risk before they arrested him. While Mr. Escobar Molina was in detention, ICE fingerprinted and interviewed [excerpt ends there].

The circumstances of Mr. Escobar's arrest are even worse than the brief summary above. He repeatedly tried to tell the immigration officials that he had papers while they were arresting him.

In response, a federal agent said "No you don't. You are illegal," and "Shut up, bitch! You're illegal."

Wait, they’re saying it’s caused by Tylenol, but generic acetaminophen is fine? That’s literally the same thing.

Google Maps and Apple Maps should invent a feature where they navigate you away from the setting sun shooting directly into your eyes

NEW! Sworn declarations filed last night confirm the Trump admin sent INNOCENT people to rot in prison El Salvador, including a professional soccer player jailed and tortured by the Maduro regime, who entered this country LEGALLY to seek asylum, and who has NO CRIMINAL RECORD in either country.

Thank you for making this! It’s so important to have hope and have some direction for where folks can do good for their neighbors. Just shared with some of my friends!

Decentralized Social Media Is the Only Alternative to the Tech Oligarchy The TikTok ban and Donald Trump's rise to power show how fragile our social media accounts are. We must normalize and invest in decentralized social media.

The last few weeks have really highlighted just how fragile corporate social media is, and just how beholden to political power it is. To build any sort of ground-up power we must continue to invest in decentralized alternatives that are resistant to intervention

Dandadan is about a teen boy and girl where one believes that aliens exist and the other believes that ghosts exist but they find out that actually both are real and they need to team up to fight them (and also they have a very cute awkward romance)

Delicious in Dungeon is about an adventuring party exploring a dungeon and they learn how to cook monsters because they run out of money. They’re trying to save their group leader’s sister and the main character is an autistic coded himbo.

NBC White House correspondent reporting that legal experts advise those with passports with x markers may be held up upon attempt to use it.

I CANNOT confirm this but it’s certainly notable that it’s being reported.

I’ve also been getting more into it recently - do you want lighthearted fun times or an emotional gut punch?
