This is amazing. DHS bought a warehouse in a city called Social Circle, Georgia. When the city council asked DHS how they planned to use the warehouse, DHS refused to answer.
So, the city cut off water and sewer services and put a lock on the water meter, and said that services will remain off “until ICE indicates how water and sewer to the facility will be served without exceeding the limited infrastructure capacity.”
Outstanding. We need more of this! This is how we stop fascism.
A particularly good @caseynewton commentary on how social media companies, which once pretended to care about their role in helping spread misinformation -- and do something to lessen the problem -- have now become allies of the people who want to bring down our democracy.

Juristi, runoilija ja kielitieteilijä Andrei Komarov pakeni Venäjältä Kazakstaniin välttääkseen rintamalle joutumisen. Hän uskoo, että Venäjä häviää sodan. Sen jälkeen se alkaa hajota reunoiltaan. HS tapasi Komarovin Kazakstanissa.
My column about apps on Mastodon appears in print today. I'm told it did very well on the web after publishing on Friday. It got MANY boosts and Favorites here on Mastodon (thank you!), so I assume that's where a lot of traffic came from. It'll be very interesting to see what kind of print-reader feedback I get via email.
This is a gift link to the story, so it should get at least some of you past the paywall if you don't have a subscription. If not, use archive.ph.
I used MoveToDon to bring my follower list over from Twitter. It's not perfect but it's not horrible. Took about 10 minutes.
Knowing my luck, it's some horrific North Korean malware trap, but as of right now I recommend it.
