附屬住房之歌 The Accessory Dwelling Unit Song🏘️🎵
This was fun to write, lyrics go from how to build an ADU to becoming a homebuilder, building ADUs in mythical lands, then back down to earth with family.
Original version is Mandarin Chinese but I've written the English translation to be singable as well!

Main character energy is OUT, this summer we’re bringing NPC energy. We’re posted up at the bar dropping lore and suggesting side quests. We’re leaning casually near a locked door and saying “I don’t think you have the key for that” when someone tries the handle. We’re staring at a tree.

Working in immigration law is like people finding out the Mad King is feeding his enemies to a secret minotaur hidden under the Palace and you need to explain that, no, you knew about the minotaur and the feeding has happened for years but it used to be decided by lots who got fed to him.
a) This is an important thread as yet another illustration of how harsh US immigration law has been for decades.
b) the angry replies on how OP is 'excusing' what happened show just how unaware most people are of that longstanding harshness. Dude's just accurately describing the law.

Again, while’s ICE’s treatment of him is clearly inexcusable, the explanation for why he was detained IS included in the article; he has a previous arrest, and possible conviction, for a controlled substance offense. That has been a ground for possible deportation since the 1980s.

We are devastated to see 20% of our beloved colleagues laid off by the same leadership who have yet to recognize our union.
We demand that leadership at Sesame Workshop bargain with us over the terms of these massive layoffs. Consider letting them know that you expect the same.

David did a helpful thread of things he expects from Trump's immigration agenda. It's a great opportunity to do a thread on some of the things to look out for in Trump's first moves. I'm going to mirror David's thread and talk about what questions I have about each topic.

What to expect from Trump's Day 1 immigration agenda:
1) cancel the CHNV parole processes which have channeled 30,000 people/month into legal channels
2) ban scheduling appointments for lawful entry from Mexico using the CBPOne app
