    SEIU president injured and detained during ICE operations in downtown LA, mayor says
    https://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/seiu-president-detained-ice-operations-downtown-la-mayor-bass/3717671/
    The Service Employees International Union California (SEIU) issued a statement Friday that the labor union's president, David Huerta, was detained during the ICE raids across Los Angeles. The labor union is calling for the release of Huerta, who they say was injured during the federal agency's operations. Huerta was released from the hospital, where he was treated for his injuries, but remains in custody. “What happened to me is not about me; This is about something much bigger. This is about how we as a community stand together and resist the injustice that’s happening. Hard-working people, and members of our family and our community, are being treated like criminals. We all collectively have to object to this madness because this is not justice. This is injustice. And we all have to stand on the right side of justice," said Huerta.

    The "Tooth Hurty" Joke Has Its Origins In Ancient, Armored Fish
    https://defector.com/the-tooth-hurty-joke-has-its-origins-in-ancient-armored-fish?giftLink=0cdbfecbb4830fd685bbc02fb119cd62
    Whenever Yara Haridy, a paleontologist at the University of Chicago, shows off the fossils she works with, people are often disappointed. Unlike the statuesque bones of dinosaurs or even the small spirals of ancient seashells, Haridy's fossils "kind of look like dust, or like the last little bit in your cereal," she said, adding that scientists call them "fish flakes." These fossils are too tiny to spot, let alone excavate on site. Instead, geologists take layers of rock and dissolve them in acid, revealing the bones and other organic bits left behind. This is how researchers first discovered the fish flakes, after the mote-like fossils suddenly appeared at a certain point in Cambrian rocks. Earth's earliest vertebrates are little more than squishy, wormy critters with no hard parts of their own. But after about a 20-million-year gap, suddenly the record shows vertebrates "that look like small little armored tanks or Roombas that are swimming around," said Karma Nanglu, a paleobiologist at Harvard University's Museum of Comparative Zoology. Haridy hoped that the fish flakes might help fill in the gap: a hypothetical vertebrate somewhere between "the squishy guys and the fully formed fish."

    Carnivorous Plants Have Been Trapping Animals for Millions of Years. So Why Have They Never Grown Larger?
    https://www.smithsonianmag.com/articles/carnivorous-plants-have-been-trapping-animals-for-millions-of-years-so-why-have-they-never-grown-larger-180986708/
    The horror can only be seen in slow motion. When a fly touches the outstretched leaves of the Cape sundew, it quickly finds itself unable to take back to the air. The insect is trapped. Goopy mucilage anchors it in place. Struggling doesn’t help. More often than not, the jerking movements to get free only bring the meal into contact with more points of sticky contact. Little by little, the leaf curls over the insect, almost as if possessive, as the digestive process begins. It’s hard not to relate to the little insects that carnivorous plants like the Cape sundew, Venus flytraps and pitcher plants feed upon. What seems to be an inert plant, a part of the ecological background, suddenly becomes an inescapable trap. The idea has stuck with us so strongly that we have turned human-eating plants into a sci-fi staple, even though such organisms may seem to us primordial or better suited to some prehistoric moment. In fact, carnivorous plants do have a deep history that stretches back millions of years—throughout their past drawing in essential nutrients from animal prey that the soil itself does not provide. Most of this carnivorous botany is small, but the diversity of different trapping mechanisms raises an evolutionary question. Why haven’t carnivorous plants grown to sizes large enough to rival the human-munching plants we repeatedly invoke in fiction?

    Kilmar Abrego Garcia back in US to face bullshit charges of helping traffic 'thousands' of migrants
    https://abcnews.go.com/US/mistakenly-deported-kilmar-abrego-garcia-back-us-face/story?id=121333122
    Mistakenly deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia is back in the United States to face charges of transporting undocumented migrants within the U.S... The decision to pursue the indictment against Abrego Garcia led to the abrupt departure of Ben Schrader, a high-ranking federal prosecutor in Tennessee, sources briefed on Schrader's decision told ABC News. Schrader's resignation was prompted by concerns that the case was being pursued for political reasons, the sources said.

    ICE officers had to "interrupt the flight and disembark in Djibouti without being on anti-malaria medication," ICE official Melissa Harper said in a sworn declaration dated Wednesday. Harper said the migrants and ICE officers were not able to start taking antimalarials until after their arrival, and are also at risk of rocket attacks from terrorist groups, as well as extreme heat conditions.

    ‘Half the tree of life’: ecologists’ horror as nature reserves are emptied of insects
    https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/jun/03/climate-species-collapse-ecology-insects-nature-reserves-aoe
    Daniel Janzen only began watching the insects – truly watching them – when his ribcage was shattered. Nearly half a century ago, the young ecologist had been out documenting fruit crops in a dense stretch of Costa Rican forest when he fell in a ravine, landing on his back. The long lens of his camera punched up through three ribs, snapping the bones into his thorax. Slowly, he dragged himself out, crawling nearly two miles back to the research hut. There were no immediate neighbours, no good roads, no simple solutions for getting to a hospital. Selecting a rocking chair on the porch, Janzen used a bedsheet to strap his torso tightly to the frame. For a month, he sat, barely moving, waiting for his bones to knit back together. And he watched.

    Do people really resemble their dogs?
    https://theconversation.com/do-people-really-resemble-their-dogs-255088
    Many dog owners wonder whether they share similarities with their dogs, including characteristics like a calm temperament, a sociable personality or even a bit of stubbornness. The idea that people and dogs resemble each other is not just a joke. In fact, some researchers have explored this question. As a clinician and researcher who has been studying different aspects of the human–animal bond and works clinically with people grieving the loss of a pet, I understand how meaningful these relationships can be. I am particularly interested in how perceived similarities and emotional connections with dogs can shape the quality of the relationship. Understanding what is known so far about the similarities between people and dogs is crucial, as this can reveal whether perceptions of similar physical and personality traits play a role in the quality of the relationship people share with their dogs.
