it's a construction site so from my understanding it's ultimately up to the owner whether to let them in or not

i work with a small crew, all citizens. we are union but afaik most other workers here are not (right to work state). about 3/4 of the workforce left early this morning; ICE was 2 blocks away at another jobsite so i believe a raid is imminent

what do i do if ICE shows up to my job site? (hexbear.net)
 

i am not an immigrant so theoretically not in any danger of being deported. ICE has been doing raids around my job site and i suspect we'll be next. what can i do in the event they do come on site?

a lot of important research relies on public grants. medical research comes to mind as a field that has been hit pretty bad by DOGE's anti-woke keyword search crusade

what does degrowth look like? (hexbear.net)
 

as an aside in the latest Trillbillies episode Terrence said that we need degrowth communism and it got me wondering what that means to everyone. to hopefully stifle any silly debates i'll clarify that i'm talking about the West, not underdeveloped/overexploited nations in the Global South.

an end to oil drilling, gas extraction, and coal mining will obviously be necessary to stop climate change. how much modern technology can we replicate without relying on those things or other ecologically violent resource extraction? what does an agriculture system that doesn't rely on petrochem-derived fertilizers and herbicides look like? how do we repair the immense damage that's already been done?

i'd really appreciate some book recommendations on this topic as well as everyone's thoughts

for real though, modern linux distros will rarely require you to enter a command line, and if you do, a quick internet search can usually help you find out what you need to enter
