"At least six protesters have been arrested after hanging a banner from the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty emblazoned with a message about abolishing the US immigration enforcement agency, and another person has scaled the statue’s base.

Visitors were being evacuated from Liberty Island on Wednesday afternoon.

National Park Service spokesman Jerry Willis said park police were at the top of the base, advising the climber to go down."

Public transit? ... Oh, you mean the prolechariot

God, I'm so done with "Godlike AI awakens and immediatly decides to wipe out humanity" stories.

Where are the "Godlike AI awakens and decides to strive for social reform, abolishing poverty and capitalism" stories?

It's depressing how reactionary and conservative this branch of SciFi is.

Trump Baby. Good work, England.

Years ago, I walked across the Harvard Bridge a bit after the fireworks were done and the crowds had gone. Trash was littered everywhere. Coming the other way was a work crew of black and Latinx prisoners cleaning it up.

Bit on the nose with your metaphor there, real life.

Specific amounts that I need today:

$55 to pay for therapy.

$7.29 to pay for dawnfeast (it's like breakfast, but earlier >_> )

$165 to pay for storage unit so my stuff doesn't get thrown into the street.

If you can spare a dollar or two, literally anything helps.

I use Simple Banking, which allows instant, free transfers.
I'd prefer to use LiberaPay (see https://liberapay.com/jakimfett/ )

GoFundMe takes...days to process, unfortunately.

Amazing

Under general relativity the faster your are moving, or the stronger the gravity field you are in, the slower clocks will run compared to those moving slower or in weaker gravity. This is enough that the clocks on the GPS satellites have to compensate for it.
