This Samantha Fulnecky story is absurd.
I used to be a writing tutor for college students. The most important part of my lessons? Students had to make sure they were, at the very least, answering the question(s) being asked. (1/2)

We don’t need to reform ICE.
We don’t need alternatives to ICE.
We don’t need to engage in dishonest debates wondering what the U.S. would do without ICE.
ICE isn’t even 23 years old. Most adults know a world without ICE. And the billions used to fund ICE can be used to meet people’s basic needs.

New MLB licensing agreements with NBC, ESPN, and Netflix. Seems like it'll be tedious to watch some games.
Also I guess no more Roku games, getting rid of my favorite presentation.
I get why it happens this way (money) but it's more stuff to keep up with than we need.

Another work update from my union:
Since there are no LIHEAP funds because of the shutdown, about half of the Energy Assistance Workers have been placed on leave without pay with benefits.
(I am not an Energy Assistance Worker, for the record. But this is still bad and I hate it.)

I worked the last 3+ weeks in the office after teleworking full-time for 5+ years. It reinforced what I already knew:
