I would rather live next door to someone who speaks another language than live next door to someone who doesn’t want to live near people who speak other languages. I know nothing about Person A but I know person B is a shitbird.
Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do

The people on this airplane have a sense of duty and self-sacrifice that Donald Trump will never understand. They are NOAA employees flying their plane through the middle of the category 4 Hurricane Melissa south of Jamaica. And they aren't getting paid.
I wish them safe flying and a safe return

They will be called ICE Youth and when the historical parallels are pointed out they will act like it's insane to draw that comparison
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem just announced she's removing the age limit for ICE applicants, which allows literal teenagers to now apply. What could possibly go wrong?

The worst thing #MLC did was allow the Super Kings to promote that damn "Whistle for Texas" campaign. It's bad enough on TV, but going to TSK matches are unbearable.

We’ve bombed Iran. And dismantled our joint terrorism task force. And sent a third of the FBI to help ICE. And gutted the National Security Council. And a drunk guy is in charge at the pentagon. And our intelligence allies probably won’t share intel with us. Because people couldn’t vote for a woman.

A thing about growing up poor, or even middle class in America, is that there comes a time when you look back on bad memories or traumatic experiences you saw and realize how many of them had something to do with a lack of money

Watch seismic waves from the M7.7 earthquake in Myanmar ripple across North America.
This animation, called a Ground Motion Visualization (GMV), shows how the ground moved as detected by seismometers across the continent.

This is TERRIFYING. The NWS & NOAA have already been notoriously understaffed in recent years. But now they want to close down the two major locations for running models and collecting & interpreting radar data. NO HYPERBOLE: SHUTTING DOWN THESE NWS OFFICES WILL KILL PEOPLE.

It took seeing adult bullies to understand that my childhood bullies didn’t even really want to hurt me, they just wanted to feel powerful and how I felt about it wasn’t even in the equation.
I can’t imagine someone not outgrowing that, but apparently it happens quite a lot!
