Wondercon in Anaheim California is coming up fast. I will be there as a guest. Anyone else have Wondercon in their plans?

Joe is probably a better source for that info. Wish I could be more helpful.

Have fun at your Super Bowl. I'm just going to sit here and sort numbers for my taxes. I don't mind paying my taxes. I dread amassing the data to figure out what I owe.

What would it take to outlaw private for-profit prisons and detention centers? Could it be done state by state?

Victoria to the rescue yet again. For years now, you have been warning writers of traps. We are so fortunate to have you.

Maybe. But the rich white guys I've known didn't fall to that. Where does it start?

Possibly. Where does it start. That capacity for cruelty

A significant percentage of child molesters were themselves molested as children. Was dt ever a victim? Epstein? Not an excuse but possibly an insight to the evil.

Screenshot of an X post by Kelly (@broadwaybabyto, 11h) saying: β€œRemember how much noise we made for Colbert and Kimmel when they were being silenced? Make that noise for Don Lemon. Make it for Georgia Foot. We need their voices, their courage & bravery.” The post quote-tweets philip lewis (@Phil_Lewis_, 11h) saying Don Lemon spoke outside the courtroom after release and won’t be silenced. Below is a video thumbnail showing Don Lemon speaking to media outdoors; a chyron reads β€œDON LEMON ADDRESSES MEDIA AFTER COURT,” with β€œBREAKING NEWS” and β€œLIVE” graphics.

Lovely postcards from the V&A museum.

Lovely postcards from the V&A museum.

My lovely postcards from the V&A museum that I have hoarded for years. Now I send them out to people who voted to fund DHS with a large budget for ICE. Many state senators and reps hope to someday run for higher office. I tell them they have lost my vote forever. Remember.

Tea and rest. I find that fever enhances story imagining but I still don't recommend it.

The sad part is the old quote from the Pogo comic strip is more apt. ',We have met the enemy and he is us.' Our fellow citizens. Sons, brothers aunts. Cousins, dads, sisters. ICE and Border Patrol. Not an invading force. Our own. How can that be?

Was any of this AI? Did ICE kill 2 protestors today? I hate that I don't know what to believe.

Verify? First video the man yelled I'm a US citizen. I've done nothing. You'll have to kill me. My name is (Mark) James'. His wife screaming on sidewalk. They were running from gas ICE grabbed him. ICE shot him. Later video Alex Pretti shot. Different footage.
Mediaite says first man Matt Allen.
