The Clock is Ticking for Schools and Universities to Become Digitally Accessible inclusivity.consulting/2025/04…

"Before 1914, the earth had belonged to all. People went where they wished and stayed as long as they pleased. There were no permits, no visas, and it always gives me pleasure to astonish the young by telling them that before 1914, I travelled from Europe to India and America without a passport and without ever having seen one."

-Stefan Zweig

Borders as we know them are a recent concoction.

The passport system as we know it dates to the First World War. ICE was founded in 2003 as part of the so-called "War on Terror," a disaster for freedom in every way.

These institutions are neither timeless nor beneficial nor inevitable.

Pražský půlmaraton vyhrál Rodrigue Kwizera z Burundi v čase 58:54. Ve finiši předběhl favorizovaného Keňana Isaiu Kipkoeche Lasoie. Mezi ženami zvítězila Keňanka Lilian Kasai Rengeruková za 1:05:27. To je brutál, to člověk nedá ani na kole.

News: Hands Off Crowd Estimated At 2.3 Million By Alt National Parks

Edit: TOTAL NOW 5 MILLION! - SEE UPDATE BELOW

"Wow! Updated estimates now put turnout at 2.3 million — and we're still waiting on reports from coalition members in other areas, with some events yet to begin! If you're free, come out and join us... People often ask what a coalition of 200,000 can do. The answer's simple — with all our free time (since a lot of us got fired), we're out here causing a lot of good trouble."

While (most) corporate media outlets are ignoring or downplaying the #HandsOff rallies, indie and nonprofits are not! For example, the #Philadelphia #Inquirer covered #HandsOffPhilly and other Delaware Valley protests. Support your #localnews that is likewise covering these events. Here’s a gift link courtesy of my Inky sub:

This Q&A on tariffs is somewhat belated but is an informative read and a good candidate for a social media sharing!

LEt's retweet this again!

GlobalX flight attendants were told they would fly rock bands, sports teams and sun-seekers.

Then the company started expanding into deportation flights.

“They didn’t tell us these people were going to be shackled, wrists to fucking ankles.”

I have now filed a bug report about the web version of #Element (the flagbearing #Matrix client) constantly using/waking my CPU while it is unfocused in a background tab in Firefox: github.com/element-hq/element-…

I'm hoping I'm not the only one observing this issue, and that some power saving improvements can be made, because to me this would look like a big drain on battery life for modern #laptops that *need* you to let their CPUs sleep while idle.

Read this, weep, refuse to comply, & don't be paralyzed by the evil.

"I understand that we have an immigration problem. I do," Riggs said. "I understand that our country cannot harbor every single person that crosses its borders. I understand that there are really bad people that we have to find." But starting w/a 73-year-old grandfather who has a #heart condition & who is the primary caretaker of his wife w/#dementia is not the solution, she said.
