There is going to come a time in your life when you are chatting with a guy, at a barbecue or something, a new coworker maybe, a dad at school drop off, and he tells you he used to be in ICE. You’re going to need to spit on that guy
Minnesota: "School officials say the [5-year-old] child was used as bait. They say [ICE] agents made little Liam knock on the door to ask to be let in in order to see if anyone else was home."

Another friend put it to me like this: "ICE has made the classic Nazi mistake. They've invaded a winter people in the winter."

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Truth
1. Mayo is the single most disgusting concoction ever devised. It serves no purpose. Sorry your food is dry, make it better next time. Even a sandwich cut with a knife that had once had mayo on it is instantly ruined

Now more than ever, it is important to stand with our European neighbours and friends. A new poll reveals that a vast majority of Scots would back rejoining the EU.

Every vote for the Scottish Greens is a vote for independence in the EU.🇪🇺

Ah yes, the Blue Monday emails
Aside from it being a made up thing to sell holidays, you know what would make this less of a shite time? 4-weekly pay, and direct debit schedules to go with it, and get rid of this 6 weeks between pays on the heels of one of the most expensive times of the year

It is interesting to note that ⁦‪#StarTrek ‬⁩ #Voyager, so beloved in retrospect, was thought "woke" ("politically correct" was the term way back then) at its premiere.

If anyone has a problem with Laura Thok's accent in Starfleet Academy they can, simply, shut up
To paraphrase the other franchise "All planets have a north London", and that's a million times more likely than all planets having a mid-Atlantic

So I take it everybody paused Starfleet Academy episode 1 at about 29:38, aye?

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo
