At this point I am going to block people who are like "stop talking about thing that is shitty, it's a distraction from the REAL ISSUES"
They're all real issues. The only non-real issue is you trying to dictate what I get to talk about.

I mean this: if your DAs and AGs aren’t talking about prosecuting this, get some who will if you possibly can. Either by shaming or voting.
ICE detain U.S. citizen for looking Somali—use illegal chokehold to tackle him to ground.
Man repeatedly begs agents to look at his digital passport ID—they refuse.
Drove him 7 miles away before releasing him alone into Minnesota snow storm—told him to "walk home" in freezing weather advisory.

Woke up this morning with big plans.
Saw the news about ICE being dipshits in my city
Saw the news that someone I know was arrested by ICE
Had a very physical reaction
Big plans didn't happen.

The thing I have found about my current job is that there is no piece of learning I do not use. It's not just about facts (although those, too).
Learning to do proofs taught me patience with material and the skill of banging my head against a brick wall.

Macie monitors my blood sugars and alerts me when I'm going low (especially when I'm asleep)
Wumpus monitors my blood sugars and alerts me when I'm going high, especially when I've been sitting for too long

I had my last appointment with a good doctor today (she's retiring and heading off to explore being well rested).
It was kind of sad because she really did listen to me, but also kind of fun because she introduced me to my next doc and told new doc about my cats.

At least today he didn't make so much noise and didn't make mom leave her room.

We have an electrician in the house installing a new circuit to go with the upstairs washer/dryer that were installed 4 years ago and plugged into a very under-rated circuit for them.
We are very lucky that we didn't burn the house down before now.

"...cats meow more frequently when greeting male caregivers. The team hypothesized that men 'require more explicit vocalizations to notice and respond to the needs of their cats'...suggesting that many cats have concluded that men don’t always listen, and adjusted their behavior accordingly."
