Social media is fun because you basically just talk to yourself and sometimes a stranger replies to yell at you about why you’re wrong

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.

I didn't realize that the pro-eugenics natalist couple that was inexplicably profiled by several major outlets for having a lot of kids through IVF started a podcast. Here's an unlistenable episode where they try and argue that Hitler was a hipster and not "right wing."

I know the racism doesn't care and it's not the main point, but Omar has lived in the United States since she was 13, thirty years ago. She became a citizen when she was 17, twenty five years ago. She's an American by law but also just substantively, she's spent her entire adult life as an American.

I did ten sets of kettle bell swings today.
Ten reps.
I counted and that is too many. Which I said as loudly as my collapsing lungs could manage.

Plus there’s still zero evidence that the two people killed while clinging to the wreckage were drug traffickers. Makes no sense to use space on a “drug vessel” for 11 passengers.

If you are a voter in Tennessee's 7th Congressional District and also a fan of The Wire, I will, on evidence you voted today, pen a personal apology for having killed any character you cared for.
And yes, this assumes Wire fans do not vote for some cheese-eating supplicant to any tinpot dictator.
