every detail of this story is more sickening than the last, including the clear implication that landlords could be using ICE to evict vulnerable tenants
Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers, she said. "It was heartbreaking to watch," said Watson. "Even if you're not a mother, seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible." Johnson said he was left tied up outside the building for nearly three hours before agents finally let him go. "I asked [agents] why they were holding me if I was an American citizen, and they said I had to wait until they looked me up," Johnson said. "I asked if they had a warrant, and I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one."

my fb has become inundated with these unsourced, clearly ChatGPT-written “quotes” purportedly from reality stars, most of which garner hundreds of credulous comments
A Facebook post from a reality show fan page with photos of several Bravo stars and the following text: "The pretending is exhausting — and honestly, I’m over it. I ghosted Madison because some people are like toxic smoke: you try to breathe, but they just choke the life out of the room. And Patricia? Sweetheart, she’s not just toxic — she’s the full-blown chemical spill nobody wants to clean up. This isn’t some petty reality TV nonsense. This is survival. I’m done pretending everything’s fine while the chaos brews behind the scenes. No more fake smiles. No more pretending like poison tastes like candy. I’m done playing nice. This mess is raw, it’s ugly, and I’m dragging every last bit of it into the spotlight — whether they like it or not." #SouthernCharm #PaigeDeSorbo #MadisonLeCroy #PatriciaAltschul

not the main issue here but have we given up on losing/loosing as a society
A Wall Street Journal article headline, reading “Trump Is Loosing Patience With Musk’s Outbursts Over Megabill: The billionaire wants GOP lawmakers to make deeper spending cuts in the president’s tax megabill.”

support for annexing canada among u.s. respondents is lower than support for any policy position i have ever seen polled, bearing in mind that the answer to “if canadians want to” is “they don’t”
A new poll conducted by the non-profit Angus Reid Institute found that 60 per cent of Americans have “no interest in seeing” Canada join the U.S., while 32 per cent are “interested but only if Canadians want to.” Six per cent agreed with the statement that the U.S. should annex Canada using political and economic pressure, and two per cent believe the U.S. should annex Canada using military force.
