Pretty #sunset tonight, looking out over port of #Tacoma and the Olympics from nearby Bonney Lake, WA

The US military veteran said he “was pepper-sprayed, tear-gassed, had his car window smashed, and was forcibly removed from his vehicle at gunpoint—all while complying with orders and identifying himself as both a U.S. citizen and an employee.” https://ktla.com/news/local-news/disabled-veteran-detained-immigration-raid-speaks-out/

@SteveBellovin @dangoodin I continue to pay the cell phone bill for a deceased family member so we can text him forever.

@KanaMauna @ai6yr I was leading an incident bridge as a passenger in my carpool a few years back when this happened. It wasn’t serious so I kept driving the call while police and such happened. Good times.

Cool new depiction and poster of the enormous Ice Age floods that roared over the area now known as Dry Falls in central Washington state. Their magnitude was several times greater than Niagara. From Washington DNR crews using LIDAR and aerial photography. #Geology #IceAge

UPDATE: Narisco Barranco, the landscaper father of 3 U.S. marines who was viciously beaten by Trump’s Gestapo, was just released

My opinion on $1bn being defunded from US cyber defence budget and $1bn being added added to US cyber offense budget:

People don’t even know what Netscalers they own. That’s the reality.

Critical US gov systems aren’t patched almost a month in despite binding orders to patch.

If US start attacking other countries, US citizens will end up dealing with impacts of ransomware, wipers etc - defense just isn’t strong enough.

@ai6yr fuuuuu… I have parsonage turner syndrome and this is the only thing that helps me!

@Viss @ai6yr @simonbp I love fireworks when done safely. Not when it’s a tinderbox!

I was just in Maui and so surprised to see fireworks being sold right after Lahaina burned down. People are dumb.

@ai6yr @Viss @simonbp some asshole lit my back yard on fire tonight while I’m out of town.

God, this bubble burst is going to be so brutal

99% of people with Christian in their bio are the worst people you’ll ever encounter online and have a belief system that’s the exact opposite of what Jesus taught 2,000 years ago.

11. The bigger question for the House GOP: why the hell do you want this job? Congress is a coequal branch. Your decisions affect every American. If you think that you should only do what Trump wants regardless of the ask and even if your constituents don't like it you aren't a representative.

This is the first tech bubble where the mass layoffs have started *before* the big pop

If you are using undocumented immigrants' tax records to find and kidnap them, then it was never about them paying taxes.

If you are showing up at their place of employment, then it was never about them not working.

If you are showing up at courthouses, then it was never about getting them to "do it the right way".

If you are kidnapping women and children, then it was never about criminals.

If you're refusing to give them due process, then it was never about the Constitution.

If you are building concentration camps in Florida to keep them here in cages, then it was never about the border.

If you're spending billions to do this, then it was never about the economy.

And if you're doing all this in the name of a 34 time convicted felon, then it was never about following the law.

This is a monumentally bad time for the Republicans to be cutting support for climate monitoring and mitigation. If it's "woke" to keep your eyes open and respond to problems, wake the @#$ up. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/26/climate/climate-heat-intensity.html

Municipalities using X dot com for emergency communication is a major failure.

Please quit it, Mountlake Terrace!

"Incident Commander" is a really cool sounding title they give you to make up for the fact that your day is gonna SUUUUUUCK
