A very smart colleague just pointed out the grim truth that the U.S. leaving the WHO may ultimately be a win for the rest of the world. Why? Because without a vote, “the US can't block WHO actions like vaccine programs, disease surveillance, contraception, etc”. Man, that is daaaark, but accurate.

“Inspectors general can be fired by the president, but only after communicating a reason for the removal to both houses of Congress 30 days in advance. In 2022, Congress strengthened and expanded protections for inspectors general, making it harder to replace them with hand-picked officials”

I know books are cheaper and hand delivered to your door step if you order on Amazon. I know. I understand times are rough and things are expensive. I just ask you please consider once in a while to go to a local bookstore. Or visit a library. They'll even order books for you. Please I beg of you.

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).
You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*

A lot of folks didn’t learn this lesson during Trump’s first term, apparently:
Focus on what he does, not what he says.
He’s going to say a lot of things, but those things are meant to distract you from what he’s doing.

I thought it was ok to #Knit #LeftHanded and #Crochet right handed until I came across #ProvisionalCastOn with a crochet hook. 🙄 Loops get twisted around and battling that for 140 stitches broke me. Now I'm teaching myself to crochet left-handed. Learning something new! youtu.be/ox5MMAjzqx0?...
