Wednesday Wisdom - did you know that in SSMS 22, if you right-click on a tab in the editor, you have a couple new menu options? 😉

Also, not new in SSMS 22, but new to me: Copy Full Path and Open in File Explorer. I've used SSMS for 20 years...just learned about those today 😲

ICE just blatantly violated the law and arrested sitting Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes while seeking to illegally arrest a patient in a hospital. Fuck these fascists.
