Trump’s Immigration Crackdown Hinges on Small Towns Hooked on Private Prisons Like a growing number of US communities, Torrance County, New Mexico, is convinced its financial survival depends on locking people up.

It's worth reading about small towns and why they feel like they need to contract with ICE for prison camps in order to survive. Gift link to great reporting by Rachel Adams-Heard, @pollymosendz.bsky.social and @folaak.bsky.social

This is Fendi. He is seen here demonstrating the internationally acknowledged sign language for politely requesting uppies. 13/10 would pick him up immediately (TT: isthat_jojo)

Mountain Dew Baja Blast Pie: 6/10

We may have Lived Too Más. The aftertaste stayed with me for so long. I love Taco Bell, I love Mountain Dew, and I appreciate their partnership and innovation. this one isn’t for the faint of heart.

I am willing to accept that zero may not be feasible for some folks, but certainly fewer is recommended!

I think a lot about the time @pollymosendz.bsky.social said in the Fyre festival documentary "If you've never been out on bail before, that's the time in your life where you want to be committing the least amount of crimes"

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

A bear in the wild, smiling and posing coyly

I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

Koerth: The triumph of the urban turkey Here’s how they came to be such a presence. (It was a joint effort.)

We made life hard for wild turkeys. We worked hard to reintroduce wild turkeys and help them get reestablished in the state. We get annoyed by the chaos they now cause in cities. We embrace them as symbols of anarchy.

They don’t think about us at all.

‘My Mind Is Blown': City Hall Staffers Reeling After Top Adams Officials Raided by Feds While at least one staffer said they were “angry and in shock,” Mayor Eric Adams' administration is mostly sticking to his mantra of “staying focused.”

Several administration officials said they were grappling with how to carry on with their jobs while a federal investigation loomed over so many top bosses.

Petey! We gotta name ours. Currently we call him by the full moniker Big Fat Beautiful Possum

he waddles! he’s so cute.

darth, hi, hello, I’ve missed you. Very important: my grandma has a possum living in her vegetable garden and she calls it the “big fat beautiful possum” and we recently saw it and it is truly a perfectly round wonderful creature, we don’t even mind it eats most of the best garden cucumbers

He really was! Insanely grateful, I had already started to tear up and assumed I’d never see it again when he came to the rescue

In today’s edition of New Yorkers are kind but not nice: a teenage boy helped me find a diamond that fell out of my wedding band when I dropped it on a *white and grey textured pebbled* sidewalk then waved me off while wearing headphones as I tried to thank him 100 times for doing the impossible

Never forget a few years ago when my then-92 year old grandmother sent me this picture that she'd taken on her ipad and then added text to, because she wanted me to know an animal had taken a bite out of this tomato the previous night. 🤣

Her meme game beats mine!

tiny lil zucchini in a sea of enormous ones. it's circled in red

a note! a note for tiny zucchini! it reads "*shrug* we tried our best :/" in archetypal Straight A Student Teen Girl Handwriting

best thing at the state fair hands down was this hilariously tiny zucchini shunted off to the side in the Very Large Zucchini display

Teardrop earrings

A crocheted Ukrainian flag hat

An octopus ring (this one is my favorite)
