ICE lies. A lot.

WTF

If Tren de Aragua gangsters ransacked an apartment building, destroying and stealing property, zip-tying naked toddlers and carrying them off in vans, detaining dozens of innocent people for hours at gunpoint — then I would agree they were a lawless menace to be stopped with all necessary force.

Picking a crappy building full of poor people to test run 4th amendment violations at scale is no accident.

This is Grade-D barstool blowhard content.

As a former part-time Encore Books employee (and customer), I will take a moment to savor this slice of Schadenfreude pie. (Rite Aid took over, sucked dry, and then shutttered that regional bookstore chain back in the ‘90s.)

Not fond of the convention of listing player stats for each postseason series as a discrete New Thing Entirely that exists in a vacuum. “Bryce Harper (.000)” has the appearance of information, but it isn’t that.

Yeah. Some days I think “wineskins,” some days I think “A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun is moving its slow thighs … And what rough beast,” etc.

The official story *seems* like implausible bogus nonsense desperately cobbled together as cover for panicky, flop-sweating agents firing indiscriminately into traffic.

But we should withhold judgment until we learn what the Border Patrol gestapo had engraved on their bullets.

Wineskins.

America is at last getting its own Loonie.

Saw the coin.

OK, then, from now on we call him “Tails.”

I’d have reposted this anyway just because theremin. But also, yes.

Thanks for all the kind words. I finally heard from my husband who is safe. He is being detained and it is not clear why he was detained or even if charges will be pressed.

Please pray for my family and if you can, reach out to your representatives and senators about this assault on our freedoms.

New haircut really showcases my ears and nose. I’m getting increasingly Ecclestonian as I age, so now I’m just leaning into it.

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

If they’re really using U-Haul vans for this then it seems like U-Haul has some explaining to do.

I would unironically like to see someone interview Jon McNaughton to learn what he thinks of A.I. slop.

The thing about vanities & cabinets is that they are large and heavy and it’s a lot of extra work to palletize them and having a flood of them clogging our limited overhead pallet space pre-Christmas isn’t great and couldn’t we just restrict our arbitrary tariff panics to smaller, lighter things?

These World Cup ticket prices may look high, but don't forget the US ones include a month-long stay in an ICE facility.

Me (spotting a shoplifter sneaking an NKJV “word study” Bible inside their coat): Jeez, buddy, no. Steal a better translation. Steal a better HERMENEUTIC. …

I know we're desensitized, but it's important to note, again, that today's events would have led to the immediate impeachment & removal of any president from at least Truman to at least Obama. We're hundreds of miles on the interstate past Richard Nixon's high school prank-level crimes compared to 👇

The NKJV Bible is more proof of the decline of mainline Protestantism. Nobody’s stealing the NRSV, are they? Checkmate, libs.

Political violence.

It makes me so fucking mad that there was a right wing conspiracy theory that Biden’s FEMA was denying funds to North Carolina and then Trump gets into office and actually does it and…mostly silence.

This is something that happens.

The problem is--well, one of the many problems is--centrist commentators made it seem like calling fascism fascism was an overreach. So now the people we should call that have made it a crime to call them that and the scholarly use of it is penalized locally and we're... what, pretending?

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

Why didn’t he just use the medbed to fix his ankles and hand? I mean, it did such a great job instantly fixing his ear.
