Далее идут посты с названиями "Massive Decks" и "База.", которые, вероятно, относятся к темам или группам на платформе.

В целом, изображение демонстрирует интерфейс Mastodon, где пользователи могут общаться, получать и отправлять сообщения, а также участвовать в различных темах и группах.

„A war reporter from Lebanon who lost a limb in the line of duty is calling for an end to impunity for attacks against journalists. (…)
Ms. Assi also emphasized that the same impunity applies to Palestinian journalists in Gaza (…).
“They’ve been silenced, targeted in every possible way (…) — and yet nothing has been done. No action (…) to protect these journalists,” she said.“

La prochaine occupation terrestre de #Gaza prévue par #Nethanyahu nécessite une mobilisation massive, et cause des tensions dans la société israélienne.

"pour conserver le soutien politique de la communauté ultraorthodoxe, indispensable à son maintien au pouvoir, la coalition droite-extrême droite qui gouverne Israël a préservé l’exemption de service militaire dont bénéficient les étudiants des écoles talmudiques qui reçoivent, en outre, une aide financière de l’État."

🧵 Unconfirmed rumors spreading in Russian media claim Russian delegation leader Medinsky voiced the following demands to Ukraine in Istanbul:

1. Neutral status like Austria (no foreign troops/WMDs)
2. No war reparations from either side
3. Rights for Russian speakers & end to “nationalist propaganda”
4. Recognition of Russia’s claims to Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, Zaporizhzhia & Crimea
5. Immediate ceasefire tied to Ukrainian withdrawal from these regions

L'immagine mostra una scultura moderna in ferro, situata in un paesaggio montano. La scultura, che rappresenta una figura umana, è composta da fili di ferro intrecciati, creando una texture intricata. La figura è alta e slanciata, con un capo sferico che sembra un'immagine astratta. La scultura è posizionata su un basamento di pietra, e un pannello informativo è posto accanto a essa, forse con dettagli sulla sua creazione o significato.

In primo piano, la scultura domina la scena, con il suo colore marrone scuro che si fonde con l'ambiente circostante. Sullo sfondo, si può vedere un paesaggio montano con alberi verdi e una piccola città con case tradizionali. Le montagne imponenti e le nuvole bianche nel cielo blu aggiungono un senso di grandezza e bellezza naturale. La scena è serena e suggestiva, con una combinazione di arte moderna e paesaggio naturale.

More photos from my visit to the Billy Frank Jr. Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge last week. When I went down I was primarily looking for migratory shorebirds, like the Caspian Tern from the prior post, but there were plenty of others.

(Cross-posted from my site, where you can see the other photos: andrewflenniken.com/2025/05/16…)

I typically get down to the Refuge once or twice a year, but this was the first time I'd arrived at low tide and stayed long enough for the tide to come all the way in. It's fascinating watching the little pools in the mud flat grow and connect until, before you realize it, it's no longer a mud flat, it's a little bay.

🇫🇷📞 Macron: Spoke with POTUS from Albania. Once again, Putin refuses the unconditional ceasefire proposed by the U.S. and backed by Ukraine & Europe.

By rejecting peace talks, Russia proves it doesn’t want peace—just time to prolong the war.

(And guess who dissented🙄) #SCOTUS

#WompWomp

‪Mark Joseph Stern:‬

#BREAKING: The Supreme Court holds that the Trump administration violated the due process rights of Venezuelan migrants last month in its rushed effort to expel them to El Salvador in the middle of the night (which SCOTUS blocked). Alito and Thomas dissent.

2/ More:

The Supreme Court does NOT decide whether the Trump administration can remove migrants under the Alien Enemies Act, but holds that its efforts to do so violate due process. It instructs the lower courts to decide exactly what deportation procedures *would* comply with the Constitution.

in reply to Laffy

3/ More:

Critically, the Supreme Court also continues to block deportations of migrants under the Alien Enemies Act *as a class,* through an injunction that applies to all similarly situated detainees. This is a strong signal that the majority WILL let the migrants litigate through a "habeas class action."

in reply to Laffy

4/ More:

SCOTUS points out that the Trump administration claims it can't retrieve migrants once they've been sent to CECOT, adding: Well, if that's true, then migrants must receive especially robust due process protections before they're expelled to El Salvador!

in reply to Laffy

5/ "Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, devoid of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster."
in reply to Laffy

6/ More from Aaron Reichlin-Melnick:

The Supreme Court recites the facts about what happened in detail, making clear that the government was about to deport hundreds of people to El Salvador without ANY real opportunity to file habeas corpus lawsuits in challenge, a direct violation of their previous order - and mentions Abrego Garcia.

in reply to Laffy

7/ More from Aaron:

The Supreme Court also rebukes Judge Hendrix in the Western District of Texas and the Fifth Circuit for refusing to act on the ACLU's emergency request, emphasizing that the facts on the ground showed that planes were set to take off -- thus making Judge Hendrix' failure to act an appealable order.

in reply to Laffy

8/ Via Taniel:

SCOTUS sends the issue back to the 5th circuit to decide on a better process with more protections.

And does not decide whether the administration is right to invoke the AEA.

in reply to Laffy

9/ More from Aaron:

The majority ALSO preemptively makes clear (in response to Alito's dissent), that the government cannot get around class action treatment by agreeing to give notice to the class plaintiffs.

In rejecting jurisdictional arguments raised by the dissent, they bolster the lawsuits challenging the AEA.

in reply to Laffy

10/ IOW, Thomas and Alito are still pro-fascism, in case it wasn't clear from everything else they've said and done.

‪Philip Bump:‬

The Supreme Court holds that fascism is bad. Thomas and Alito dissent.

in reply to Laffy

It is frustrating to see the wheels of justice turn so slowly on what should be basic premises of reason.

This is not a system architected to deal well with a malicious Executive.

in reply to Laffy

starting to think that SCOTUS could rule that establishing gas chambers to murder political opponents is illegal and unconstitutional, and Alito and Thomas would dissent.
