People ask me about this or House of Cards, and I tell them that if they want a realistic depiction of politics, watch Veep, or even better In the Loop, about the Iraq War from the British perspective (starring Malcolm Tucker no less). Jokes aside, it's a better depiction of how inane everything is.

My best friend’s sister, who CBP has been telling us different stories all day about, her phone just got turned back on. She is a US citizen born in Evanston. They said she was never detained at O’Hare after telling us she was, they said she was not transferred to Broadview, and now she's in a detention facility in WI.

Sundas "Sunny" Naqvi's sister said that earlier this evening, her phone had been pinging from the Broadview, IL ICE detention center.

I just spoke with an officer at the Dodge County Jail in Wisconsin who said he didn't have a record of a Sundas Naqvi being checked in tonight.

And to the people who say that Iran intentionally builds schools near military installations… Dobbins AFB in Atlanta, GA. One of many US military bases surrounded by schools.

	Drone strikes on Amazon Web Services facilities this week in the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain highlight the vulnerability of cloud facilities β€” prominent symbols of US tech power in the region and hard to defend against air attack.

Fars News Agency, an outlet affiliated with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, said on Thursday that Iran targeted Amazon and Microsoft facilities in recent drone strikes.

Experts say Amazon’s facilities were likely targeted by Iran. Microsoft said it had not experienced any outages in the region.

The strikes mark what is believed to be the world’s first military attack against the US β€œhyperscalers” that dominate the global cloud computing market.

That could create a chilling effect on the UAE and Saudi Arabia’s plans to spend billions of dollars on local AI infrastructure in the coming years, a crucial plank of the oil-rich states’ efforts to diversify their economies.

β€œThe Iranians view data centres as part of the conflict,” said Matt Pearl, a director at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a think-tank.

This is the third day in a row of midnight rolling around and me going "WOW WHY AM I SO HUNGRY, GOD IM A GLUTTON" and then I look back at what I consumed during the day and it was like 5 slices of turkey, a tomato, and 10 deep breaths of fresh air.

It's the middle of the night in Chicago. Reporters and electeds are trying to figure out why a US citizen was detained by CBP, why her phone was inside an ICE detention center tonight, and where she is now.

Also unclear what happened to the other five people she was detained with at O'Hare airport.

While I understand historic sites are not the immediate concern when lives are at stake, there is still something particularly important about ancient sites of human culture that are almost greater than life, that once lost can never be replaced.

Happening now- the Broadview, IL ICE facility: a few dozen people have gathered here over the bizarre situation re: a US citizen who was allegedly detained by federal immigration agents, only for agents to reportedly say she wasn't there.

Calif. lawsuit accuses Meta of sending nude video from AI glasses to workers An investigation by Swedish and Kenyan journalists prompted the lawsuit.

So this is fun or horrifying.

If you wear META's smartglasses, there's a significant chance that META subcontractors will be able to see everything you do through your glasses, and I mean everything.

That thing you do, that you hope no one knows you do, yeah META knows about that now.

Malignant narcissists experience increased paranoia, denial, and rage as death nears. They often externalize these experiences through destruction and abuse of others in an effort to maintain a sense of control.

I suspect all of these wars are in part related to Trump’s awareness of his mortality.
