Some people were confused by my ICE post. This should clear it up.

Fun little #Scifi story stolen from #Tumblr about an alien captain that takes on some human crew and then gets reminded that humans are deadly and vicious predators not to be taken lightly.

It makes me curious on how an intelligent herbivore species would mesh with humanity.

Agreed. @adamsmith.house.gov , sign it. Yes the GOP will block it. Make them block it. Even a lot of GOP voters are angry about ICE's antics. The more the GOP covers for her, the more pressure those voters put on the GOP.
Hi, @adamsmith.house.gov. Look, we all know that this is a dead end. Sign it anyway.
Might want to check to see if your representative has signed this yet. www.newsweek.com/kristi-noem-... #impeachnoem

JUST IN: Minneapolis city officials reported a shooting in north Minneapolis Wednesday night. The Associated Press said a federal officer shot a person in the leg. This is an ongoing story and will be updated as we learn more.

Epstein-Barr Virus #EBV was linked to #MultipleSclerosis - now a plausible cause has been found, misidentification by longterm memory T-cells that pick on the wrong protein, ANO2, instead of the EBV-antigen. Massive inflection towards the elimination of MS!!!

Personally I think when a bank does this they should be legally required to inform the account holder exactly _what_ activity caused the lock or closure and exactly which policy or term it violated in what way.

A few months ago, ICE hired me

I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable

And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

This is why cryptocurrency is always a scam. Because, even on the remote chance the currency itself isn't, the people creating it are grifters who'll grab your money and run the moment it looks like the easy marks are gotten.
Eric Adams, former NYC mayor, launched a memecoin (cryptocurrency) today. He marketed it as an “NYC Token” and used media appearances and his social media to promote it.

Within hours, Adams then drained its liquidity, apparently having scammed investors out of $3.4 million—a move called a rug pull.

my take is that I have never done cocaine but seeing “Vance’s twisted and wrongheaded view of Christianity has been repudiated by two popes” printed in one of the country’s largest Catholic publications hits like I imagine cocaine feels
@clairewillett.bsky.social would love to hear your take on this!
Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

Yes, it is. However, as all too many EMTs and firemen and the like will tell you, "I can handle it." isn't bragging so much as a sad acknowledgement that you've been in the job too long and there _are_ no good systems to deal with that kind of shit.
It’s one thing to say “I have systems in place to deal with the negative effects of watching snuff films,” that’s reasonable. But “I can handle it” is actually a pretty disturbing statement!

"Violence absolutely is a valid solution to problems. There are those who object to this statement. If you discuss it with them in detail you usually discover that their objection isn't that it doesn't work, but that it works far too well for their comfort."

The response to Shirley's claims about no kids at the care centers ought to be:

"Of COURSE he didn't see any kids. He's not an employee or a parent so we didn't let him in, and in this age of mass shootings do you really think we have the kids where any rando on the street has a clear shot?"
