She’s named after the Ritz cracker box she was using as a bed. So now I have Queso and Ritzi. Cheese and crackers! 🐈🐈

Exactly. And why are they scheduling departures for 2 am? Once again, the cruelty is the point with this administration. Un-American and inhumane.
To show how bad things are — and, no, I am not even saying this is new, but — here is the latest from the Trump admin on conditions at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago.
A humane govt would be addressing bedding and food before starting detentions — not needing time after a TRO to do so.

I decided this morning that I will now approach every online video I see as fake - and attempt to be doubly wary if it supports or illustrates my main prejudices.
Look folks gen AI videos are out in the wild so if you weren't already being careful about sharing rage bait videos then now is a great time to start
If you can't trace a video back to a trusted source then I recommend leaving it where it is, like a slice of bologna you found on the street
