The best way to protect yourself from airborne viruses is a high quality respirator like an n95. Covid made all my hair fall out and now I have long covid. You don’t know what your magic number infection will be where you get it and never recover. Mine was 1.
They obviously still do it. Because I always get ads for stuff I talk to my husband about out loud without even searching for it. Like we will talk about getting new towels and then my Facebook ads are all towels.
Google has agreed to pay $68M to settle a class-action lawsuit that alleged the technology giant's voice assistant had illegally recorded users (even if they didn’t activate it with “Hey Google”) and then shared their private conversations with advertisers.

If you survive this, America, you really need better political options besides "Outright evil" and "Too weak to stand up to outright evil and also pretty evil themselves but nicer about it".
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:
DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools
"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

Pay attention folks. Danielle Smith and the Alberta MAGA machine are using the Donbas playbook.
This isn't about "independence" it is about sedition and subservience to Trump.

That would require Congress to care about stopping fascism, but they are profiting off of it and so far show no resistance to a mad king and zero willingness to put an end to it. They can’t even stop democrats from funding ICE. One party fascist state.
Saying there must be trials isn't just an emotive aspiration.
Congress can:
- Create a new court (complying w/ 6A jury vicinage)
- Give it jurisdiction over defined category of crimes
- Also create dedicated prosecutors for the same
- Strip SCOTUS of appellate jurisdiction
It can be done.

People reporting that ICE is at the border crossing that I live by in Maine and people are warning other New Brunswickers about it and I see Maple MAGAts saying they are going to still cross and get groceries they don’t give a fuck, they are traitors. Fascist collaborators. White privilege.

They are counting on MAGA being stupid. They KNOW they are ignorant and brainwashed and will parrot any propaganda they spew. I already see on Facebook their cult repeating the lies about the civilian execution. The fascists know they are lying and they don’t care.

Their big gotcha is “we are too stupid to make literate protest signs and know where to buy respirators”
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

For those who don't know, remigration is a European far-right concept of ethnic cleansing via the mass deportation of non-white minority populations.

This is how authoritarianism operates
They always say they were conducting a “targeted operation”.
They always say it was to catch a “violent criminal”.
They want you to believe they’re the good guys protecting you from a threat… but that threat does not exist.
They’re the threat.

To my fellow Canadians, there was a time when Americans believed that what is happening in the US could never happen in the US. And here we are.
Please stop saying, "I'm so glad to be Canadian, this could never happen here."
Yes, it could. And it will if we become too comfortably complacent.
