If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

🦖 DINO AVANÇA

💥 Gente graúda no Congresso está sem dormir e fala em “nova Lava-Jato”. O motivo é o avanço do ministro do STF, Flávio Dino, nas investigações sobre emendas parlamentares. Envolvendo mais de 40 casos, as operações têm causado apreensão entre deputados e senadores.

Foto do ministro do STF, Flávio Dino, registrada em 3 de setembro de 2025, durante sessão no Supremo Tribunal Federal. Ele aparece sentado em uma cadeira vermelha, com expressão séria e pensativa, apoiando a mão no rosto e olhando para frente. Veste a toga preta tradicional da Corte, camisa azul clara e gravata azul. Usa óculos de grau e um relógio de pulso metálico. O fundo está desfocado e escuro, destacando o foco na figura do ministro. Foto: Gustavo Moreno/STF.

As ICE terrorizes communities, remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies that will make bank off his budget bill.

And Stephen Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target immigrants.

Cashing in on cruelty.

🚨 ATENÇÃO! ASSINE O ABAIXO-ASSINADO PARA BETS PAGAREM A CONTA.

➡️ asbetstemquepagar.com

As bets lucram bilhões e pagam pouco.
O povo paga a conta.

O projeto de Lindbergh Farias e do PT muda isso: aumenta a taxação das bets de 12% pra 24%. Mais dinheiro pra saúde, educação e programas sociais.

13 years old. They said we're paying to have "the worst of the worst" "the rapists and murderers" removed from our country. But we're actually paying thousands of thugs on a quota system to grab as much brown skin as they can while lying about "self-defense" when their brutality gets publicized.

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.
