My daughter is roasting me cause my phone is bigger than my can of Hamm’s

She herself is drinking a tallboy “same size as my phone” “like a man”

This is Lolly’s silly snow-walk. More of a plow

Trying to train our round boi to get some exercise. He’d been sick (all better now), and is much heavier than his brother

I had just under 5000 unread emails and some time on my hands trying to cheer up, so I did the low-stakes but satisfying task of figuring out what the fuck all this email was

It was:
The democrats, et al
Airlines
Amazon
Apple
TPM, et al
MLB, et al
Github actions failures on dev
Usual marketing junk

Thin Lizzy, Jailbreak. “Tonight there’s going to be a jailbreak, somewhere in this town”

No way to know where that jailbreak is gonna be

It’s probably unwise for many good reasons including that it’s a stupid idea in the first place, but I’d love a way to check skeeters against the local feed membership so I don’t have to put up with out-of-towners telling us we’re doing it wrong

Local criticism of local actions, fine

I knew there was something fishy about that story
And the police department later distanced themselves from report that they had intervened. I guess we can’t have people thinking they’ll side with town residents against criming feds:

I’m going to make one for Saint Paul but the second part would read “quietly reading large books at home.”
From the city that gave you "Make the golf course a public sex forest..."

I wonder, too, if these “agents” weren’t local dinguses the chief knew already. So he could call them and say “wtf” outside of the regular hateful ICE process

Bet Pretti’s masked murderers are fuming at the piles of GoFundMe cash they’re losing out on right now

My youngest brother called today to see how we were doing. Our family dynamic is to give space, and I appreciated the space and the call.

It was good to talk. He’s an Illinois redneck, and he has been paying close attention. Not at all fooled by government lies about Renee’s and Alex’s murders

It would’ve worked if two guys had shown up in Cabelas-tactical gear, said they were from some made-up ICE-esque “agency” with laminated ID cards, and told BOP they were taking him to Texas

I keep thinking about this. If ICE‘s arrest procedures put their agents fingers at risk of being BITTEN OFF, that seems like a “them” problem, not an “us” problem
Two women have been charged with biting the fingers of U.S. Border Patrol officers moments after federal agents fatally shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis over the weekend near the scene of an immigration enforcement action.
Women accused of biting agents’ fingers moments after Alex Pretti was killed; one had tip bitten off
The biting occurred while the women struggled with the agents, according to the charges.
