i don't understand why so many people are so adamant that what ICE is doing is not the same as law enforcement. i disagree and i think a lot of the arguments ring very hollow, but more to the point: what's behind the desperate need to protect police legitimacy right now?

The level of racism and transphobia and shear callousness involved in people outside the US looking at what the US government is doing to people of color and trans folks here, some of whom are US citizens, and saying “these people are privileged” is intense

Thinking about how bsky has the most horrible setting turned on by default that says "i don't want to see any other languages except English" and if no one tells you to put it on "no selection" you straight up won't see posts from people set to different languages on your TL.
And if you feel like it's getting worse, yes, it is. Non US traffic here is minimal. And criticising it, you get "skill issue" or "it's not an echo chamber!"

I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link.
DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS.
This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it!
Stay frosty, friends.

Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Ever seen a pink grasshopper? A genetic mutation called erythrism (overproduction of red pigment) leaves some individuals looking pretty in pink! Though these rare insects are beautiful, their vivid coloring makes hiding from predators more difficult.

listen. There are many glaringly obvious and valid reasons to criticize America. But if you’re from the UK, I dont wanna hear it.

I wanted to quote this myself but I genuinely don’t know if I can come up with anything that fits. The closest that come to mind are like, Final Fantasy Tactics 1 and Monster Hunter but I’ve just played way too little of those to actively DISLIKE them; it’s more like “I couldn’t get into them”.
What's a game everyone loves but you kinda hate
