This means that people who are wrongfully detained by ICE can force ICE to pay for the legal fees it takes them to get out. Could have big implications in how this legal work is paid for.

My neighbors upstairs do not understand that my next door neighbor and I not shoveling their steps when we shovel the walks is deep disapproval that they never help shovel the sidewalks even though my landlord expects them to help out. This is winter 2 of this so they get what they get

I had a shopper not long ago ask if I still wanted the bell pepper that was green (I ordered green bell peppers) because it’s not ready and I had to tell him they’re green on purpose

It’s accurate though, I’m not the hottest person alive but I’m not as ugly as the DMV thinks I am. A+ burn though and it was the laugh everyone needed since they passed it around for all to see lol

A dear friend just told me she’s expecting a baby in June and after we stopped making Gemini jokes got quiet, but it’s good to talk about something that feels normal and joyous

There’s been rumors about the union stuff for years, so I guess it’s not totally surprising, but the timing couldn’t be worse

My experience with Metro Transit ads has been for the most part they are social services not capitalism
