@denikombucha Looks like the artist, Sam Lavigne [1], originally wrote a Medium article and hosted the dataset of ICE employees on a GitHub repo. And of course both the article and repo were taken down.

However, thanks to the Wayback Machine you can view his post here [2] and the JSON file here [3]. Mirror available here [4].

Hey friends! I'm putting some thought into hosting a primarily lgbtq and leftist focused potluck in order to build a community and talk about ways we can help each other and our community and city in general.

I could likely host once a month starting around August or September but before then I'd like to see if there's interest and maybe we can get to know each other in the meantime!

Also, consider what kind of a lonely and pathetic life you have to live to dedicate it exclusively to spreading hate on LGBT people.

Fun fact about the license under which the Mastodon source code is published (AGPL) is that it requires any modifications to it to be published.

No secret sauce, no proprietary features possible. Which is why commercial companies hate this license.

Want to paywall "pro" features? You can, but anyone can take your code and run it on a different server for free.

Anyway, that's quite an interesting financial choice for Gab, a for-profit entity that sells "pro" features

There's a lot of pessimism this week as reports come out that the Canadian permafrost has melted 70 years ahead of schedule. This is indeed bad news.

But.

This isn't the first time there have been serious outcomes with doomsday predictions attached. While I am not advocating for sugar-coating the situation, I think it might be helpful to examine two previous "catastrophic" climate situations that just kinda... resolved.

History has shown us that our planet is often more adaptable and more tolerant than we think it will be.

It also shows that we can't ignore the problems away or become despondent and hope it resolves itself.

So do both. Have faith things will work out, and work hard to see that happen. We're not done yet.

The very worst thing we can do with the news coming out this week is get despondent and pessimistic.

I mean, that's a normal, human reaction. No judgment. But it's also extremely unhelpful on both a personal and species-wide level.

These pieces of news need to motivate us to continually refocus our efforts to killing capitalism and destroying the consumption-production death-cycle that's killing us and our planet.

Please CW for fascists and militias. They are scary and I personally need to prep myself mentally to cope with them. I doubt I'm alone.

Thank you Comrades. 💖

Please understand that my family and I, while not targeted, are very much at threat of ICE's agenda as collateral. I would appreciate it greatly if CWs were employed to give me just a little bit of a chance of keeping my shit together.

I'm glad for the spread of information, I'm truly grateful to see so many of the community banding together. Just, understand that these are only posts for a lot of you, but for some of us this is our lives. Thank you.

Boost this if you're a disciple of the immortal science of Fourth International Posadism or if you like weed. Nobody will know which.
