A Fatal ICE Shooting Occurred in Texas Months Before Renee Good’s Killing

ICE killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a U.S. citizen—and you likely haven’t heard about it because DHS has been covering it up for nearly a year.

My heart breaks for his family, who deserve immediate answers and an independent investigation into his death. ICE will be held accountable.

I think you’re right about that.

Mary adored Percy even though he did some awful things.

I recently read a terrific dual biography of Mary Shelly and her mother Mary Wollstonecraft. I recall that Mary and Percy were fighting at the time of his death and she was devastated by the lack of resolution. A friend of his actually took Percy’s heart and only reluctantly gave it back to her

Man sieht eine Frau von hinten, sie trägt dunkle Kleidung und hat unter ihrem linken Arm eine Schale. Sie steht vor einem kleinen Schrank, auf dem eine Dose mit einem Deckel steht.

Man sieht wiederum eine Frau von hinten, sie steht vor einem Tisch, auf dem gar nichts liegt, und rechts und links von ihr ist jeweils eine Tür

Eine junge Frau, ganz in schwarz kleidet sitzt auf etwas, sie schaut zur Seite, und man sieht nur ihr junges Gesicht und die dunklen Haare

Den dänischen Maler Vilhelm Hammershoi ( 15. Mai 1864 - 13. Februar 1916) einen Vertreter des Symbolismus habe ich erst spät entdeckt, aber ich liebe seine Bildsprache. Bei seinen Porträts mag ich die Ruhe, die sie ausstrahlen, wobei die Bilder melancholische Züge haben

Tithonus' Drone: Myth, Loss and Memory in Phoenix Springs - Unwinnable What is the point of a memorial to the dead if there is no one to receive it?

BASH: Why was an unarmed man shot multiple times by your Border Patrol agents?

BOVINO: Dana, you don't know he was unarmed. I don't know he was unarmed. That's freeze frame adjudication. That's why we have an investigation.

BASH: It's not a freeze frame

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

So excited to make my debut in Unwinnable!

I dug my claws into Phoenix Springs, analyzing it through the lens of the Tithonus myth and the life cycle of the humble cicada.

Empire of Vice In a perverse twist on virtue signaling, the Trump administration is training Americans in the politics of raw domination.

"...the more one relies on vice signaling as a style of action and communication, the less relevant and powerful the in-group’s moral compass is as a practical constraint on anyone’s behavior."
