More from Border Violence Monitoring Network

1/8 From the late 2000s to the mid-2010s, the Turkish state built new military outposts, known as kalekol, and new observation towers equipped with surveillance technologies. The satellite images show the emergence of a kalekol in the Çaldıran district between 2010 and 2015.

5/8 Since 2018, interventions by the Turkish state have radically changed the landscape. Ditches, 3-metres deep and surrounded by barbed wire, appeared in the late 2010s. More were dug in parallel with the wall. At places, satellite imagery shows up to four rows of ditches.

1/4 New Report Out Today! The Croatian-Bosnian border has become a site of frequent border deaths, with many drowning in rivers and others going missing in mountainous and forested areas. This is not a coincidence but the result of deliberate weaponization of a hostile borderscape.

6/8 The construction of the wall began in 2021 in the Çaldıran district and moved southwards to the districts of Özalp, Saray, and Başkale. By 2026, it covered 204 km out of the 295 km border with Iran. Over 220 km of roads were built to support access to the wall and patrolling.

Colin Allred voted with Republicans to fund and enable ICE. Then he sent out mail saying he wants to “abolish ICE” after telling Dallas activists in this primary that there will always be an immigration enforcement agency. Now, when asked directly, it’s “time to move on.”

Took a 'sick day' to recharge. Today, half the team is "out sick" with the same thing. It turns out, rest is the one thing we’re all craving but too afraid to ask for. If you feel the urge to step back, take it as a sign. Your tasks will be there tomorrow, but your spark needs care. 💖

Customer service is so bad you can’t even complain without risking your food. Robots don’t take forever. They don’t snap back. They just do the job. People aren’t scared of robots. They’re scared of being replaced for not caring. Full conversation: https://youtube.com/live/-QzBH1nqa8w?feature=share

Google's Cloud Code just added a slash goal command that lets you give it project goals and watch it work. Haven't tested it yet but thinking about prompting it to build entire games. The real power is probably in detailed prompts, not one-liners.
