Two years ago I made one of my final threads on the Twitter. I'd like to reproduce it here, because this is the better place. On Oct. 25, 2022, I lost the best cat. His name was Raimi (after the director). He was 11. Cancer and a host of other issues that all came on at the same time.

here it is
all we have to do is take one sideways X-ray of a woman's 3rd lumbar region or maybe the rest of the hip to get the degree of curvature they think is optimal
note that Nigerian women have the shortest inter birth interval of any women, so they should be more strongly selected for this "cock up botty" trait — hence never mind you caressing [REDACTED] behind, tho was never going to be consistent with your later survival, one sideways X-ray will be our next best bet and it should be good enough
what do you say
yet another project we can do before the genetics

“in theater” is a crazy way to describe minneapolis
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down

You walk into this bar and show your ICE mugshot, you don't pay a dime.
Scrolling through the photos of Pam Bondi's "Minnesota rioters," it's just hero after hero. Every photo includes a cowardly DHS agent with their back to the camera.
Bondi thinks she's going to win the propaganda war with this shit, but it's never been more clear that they're losing.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
