Hours and hours after a domestic terrorist attack, Trump's WH Homeland Security Advisor weighs in. To his credit, he names the victims. But not their party. And makes no mention of the role his own bile has in far right terrorist attacks.

today i learned that based on one line of dialogue in a single episode of the original series (that may or may not be a hallucination owing to space madness) the officially licensed blueprints of the starship enterprise from star trek (drawn circa 1975) include a six-lane, regulation-length bowling alley with spectator seating

How much psychedelic assisted therapy are actually works? In terms of evidence based medicine and such, in the context of autistic people after severe stress? To be clear I'm talking about proper medical procedure, not just taking random stuff out of desperation.

Protests can be fun. They can be uplifting and joyous BECAUSE being there is an act of solidarity with decent pro-democracy normalpeople, who can give you ideas and contacts with people and orgs that can help you feel less powerless. Things CAN get "spicy," yes, BUT they won't most places.


UPDATE: Vancouver protest has relocated to Jack Poole Plaza. It will no longer be at the US Consulate. It will still be at 11am.

Canadians in case you did not know, we have some No Kings protests tomorrow here too in solidarity

Vancouver BC, 11am, Jack Poole Plaza
Toronto ON, 12pm, US Consulate, and Queen's Park
Ottawa ON, 2pm, US Embassy
London ON, 12pm, Victoria Park
Peterborough ON, 12pm, Confederation Square

California police illegally share license plate reader data to ICE

LAPD and the counties of San Diego, Orange, and Riverside have repeatedly shared automated license plate reader data to federal agencies — Read on calmatters.org/economy/technology/2025/06/california-police-sharing-license-plate-reader-data/

BTW there is another low-key protest happening in #Chicago today. if you’re #catholic, you can call it the #NoKings but the King of kings protest, featuring #PopeSouthSide

“Pope Leo to deliver 1st address to US audience in video message in Chicago”
abcnews.go.com/US/pope-leo-del…

no, i don’t think it’s a coincidence #PopeLeo chose today for his address. this is counterprogramming. Prevost is notoriously anti #MAGA ; ie: he supports L.A.’s cardinal call for clergy to protect migrants from #ICE

Democratic Farmer-Labor Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband, Mark, assassinated, the assassin is said to have been impersonating police. DFL State Sen. John Hoffman and his wife, Yvette, were also shot but likely to survive. Manhunt underway for the assassin.

'A senior state official said investigators "have reason to believe" the gunman had planned to target one of the "No Kings" rallies planned for Saturday. The Minnesota Department of Public Safety plans to urge people attending those rallies to stay away, the official said.'

Political assasinations

'The shootings took place at a time when political violence has become more commonplace in the US, though the vast majority of Americans do not support it, according to a University of Chicago survey.’

That is nice to know, shame the POTUS doesn’t agree.

How Immigrants and Protesters Are Being Caught in ICE’s AI Dragnet

Much discussion about “opsec” (a term I don’t love when talking about people exercising their rights, but whatever) at protests today, including about phones and Faraday containers.

A Faraday container is probably less useful here than you think it is, but if you do rely on one, make sure it actually works. Here’s a post I did a while back on the ins and outs of containing RF: mattblaze.org/blog/faraday/

I don’t know a ton about faraday bags. But if I’m in a situation where I want my phone to be inert and useless, is it enough to power it off?

I can’t imagine situations where a faraday bag is required, and I think I might pull it out of the bag for something. Seems to me I would just keep it in the bag the whole time, so I might as well turn it off.

Are there threats to powered off phones that are not in faraday bags? I am asking because I don’t know, not because I’m doubting or challenging.

in reply to Paco Hope #resist

@paco Modern phones are hard to actually turn off, and in fact recent iPhone models maintain their tracking functions for a couple days after being "powered down".
in reply to Matt Blaze

Seems like a good reason to make consumer protection laws that define “powered off” and require it to be possible.

Thanks for the tip.

in reply to Matt Blaze

How about a home-brew test by seeing if "find my device" works when the phone is enclosed.

My filters can't keep up with all the doom news from the US and Israel. It's like every hour there is something new happening flooding the timeline. I know what's happening over there will somehow affect all of us, but well, just looking to chillax for a few moments with flowers and cat pictures after a long day of working....



Being treated like an addict by the pharmacy tech because I accidentally ran out of my psych meds is baloney.

I'll just be over here in the corner enjoying my withdrawal symptoms.
