JFC. Ron DeHaas, founder of the Christian antiporn app Covenant Eyes, has stepped down from NCOSE after his 38-year old son was charged with sexual abuse of a child.

Covenant Eyes is the app used by House Speaker Mike Johnson and his son to monitor each other's internet behavior.

Wow. Greg Bovino admits on camera that his agents can detain people if you look scared, change your demeanor, or grip a steering wheel too tight.

As his unmasked agents walk around with large guns to scare you, they may arrest you just for that — even if you're a U.S. citizen.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

My friend Sascha is a professional musician and he's lost a viola bow on the way to Heathrow. Please signal boost to help him get it back.

Lost viola bow on the way from Honor Oak Station to Heathrow Terminal 2. The bow slid from its bow case somewhere along the way, possibly on the train. TFL contacted already.
It weighs 68.2 grams and has got a stamped DODD next to the frog. If any info on this, please pm me.

I’d like to know if I would enjoy exercising more or if it would hurt me and prevent me from exercising ever again

Half the gummies taste like butt and only look like candy to belie how disgusting they are — there is something wholesome about dried fruit that tastes like dried fruit but also gets you stoned

Real question, does anybody do weight-bearing exercise while stoned?

Does lifting while high sound like a bad idea or a good one

In Quebec, there are no gummies or chocolate bars because the government doesn’t want children to mistake pot for candy — so instead all the edibles are dried fruit.

I just tried THC dried figs. So civilized.
(but also I mostly miss the candy)

It’s like my own private pool — which I would sit in for hours if there were a phone holder

Oversized square hotel tub, full of blue water with a grab bar, all surrounded by clean, white subway tile, with a cup of coffee and a bottle of water decided and a towel on the subway tile floor — there is no telephone holder

I don’t get a fancy hotel room with a giant bathtub often, but when I do I wonder why the hospitality industry hasn’t included a phone holder for every single one — like for a car dashboard

Trump said he deserved a cut for brokering the TikTok deal, and at once there was agreement that his son Baron would have a top executive slot... though he hasn't asked for it, and has no apparent qualifications to hold it. This is how Trump 2.0 works. www.telegraph.co.uk/us/news/2025...
