- Reposted by Steve-o StonebrakerThe altnps account is the 13th most followed account on Bluesky and has more followers than every single news outlet other than the NYT, NPR and Meidas Touch on here.

The details even now are beyond imagination. archive.is/xdmUL I was traumatized for years from reading the news story. The torturer? Now the head of the NRA.

- Reposted by Steve-o Stonebraker🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

- In principle, I love the existence of mute/blocklists. But in practice, lists that I think are pretty good inevitably add somebody to the list that I don't think belongs there, and the only solution is the drop the list because there's no way to make exceptions or whitelist people I follow. :(
