I have been told that this undercover ICE agent tried to get observers to scan a QR code “for his website”. The QR code did not resolve to a link.

DO NOT SCAN UNKNOWN QR CODES FROM STRANGERS.

This is a massive security risk! Bad things can happen to you if you do it!

Stay frosty, friends.
Every day some story breaks me some. Today it’s the guy who approached parents at a school patrol, told them he was with Indivisible, and asked about how the patrol system works. The parents gave vague answers, followed him back to his car — and of course it was ICE.

Oh for crying out loud, we have another flood alert.

(Don't worry - this is "inconvenient for me as a disabled person", not "danger to life", it's just I'm very tired, very broke, and wasn't planning on getting groceries today.)

Can something please go right? Something?

Just marry her, man, and let her dress you. It's the only solution at this point.

Let's talk about keeping your reptiles safe in the cold, with no power.

Step one: don't panic. Weather in wherever they're from also fluctuates. They might be annoyed and might sleep a lot but one day of no lights won't harm them. 🦎

Buy the cheap 50lb bags of non-clumping litter and put them in your car over your rear axle wherever that happens to be. Do at least 100lbs. Your rear axle just doesn't have much weight on it compared to your front axle which contributes to fishtailing etc.
Hey southerners, put a bunch of containers of kitty litter in your car right now. Put it under your front wheels if you get stuck and it will often give you enough traction to get out.

Purity princess bitch still here.

I will not vote for, endorse, campaign for, or donate to any candidate or party that does not explicitly endorse FULL AND EQUAL RIGHTS to trans people in all areas of society.

I'm not a full citizen, your tent isn't big enough. Period.

FYI, I voted for Harris 🤬
Listen, I'm ALL about primaries to oust the establishment Dems, it needs to happen. Having said that, these small to medium sized accounts are rampant, negative and certainly do not promote the unity we need to defeat this fascist regime. These people probably didn't vote and then bash those who did

We're on the brink of WWIII and the BBC is devoting above-the-fold space to the Beckham family's dramas. For crying out loud. You have an entertainment section for a reason.

I want a national general strike, but we're unlikely to get one because so many people live paycheck to paycheck and would lose healthcare. Not to mention that services like disability can punitively decide if you are able to attend a protest, you're able to work, and cancel or audit your benefits.

They had the audacity to claim Bluesky didn't have the juice, but not since peak Twitter have I logged off for an evening and come back to my entire feed speaking in a new language of rapid-fire in-jokes that I have to reverse-engineer to figure out what's happening. That, my friends, is The Juice.
Two big guys walked up front and started yelling at the pilot and the pilot screamed that they weren't going to Davos, they were going to Vienna, Virginia and that he had to get home to his family.
wow just woke up from a nap, i guess everyone else on Air Force One realized we aren't going to the right place

Can't wait for Trump to give us a report on the progress being made to turn the plane from Qatar into the new Air Force One
I'm not saying Air Force One didn't have a "minor electrical issue" that forced it to turn around, but I am saying that would be unprecedented for a highly advanced piece of machinery that's supposedly equipped to be a flying command-and-control center during a nuclear war. Odd.

The US granted visas to Jews but only allowed 30,000 in from Germany a year. You had to wait for your number to come up.

Meet Robert Smallbones. An unassuming British diplomat who 'hacked' this system so effectively (saving 48 THOUSAND Jews) the UK government kept his scheme secret for decades /1 🧵

I need more time in my day. I need a *lot* of orders in a very short space of time, but I don't actually have that much stock, which... takes time to make. Can't sell what's not there.

I'm not getting on with these meds, the doctors just want more and more tests, and I'm so very tired.

EVERYONE NEEDS TO STOP WHAT THEY'RE DOING AND READ SKYLA'S WAVERLY BOOKS RIGHT NOW. New one out soon!!

God, I love Waverly so much. 🥰
Kobo and Apple users, make sure you give yourself the gift of SURPRISE HOSTILE YEARNING IN YOUR EREADER in a few months (coming elsewhere on release; eARCs to those owed them probably in March sometime).
Her yearning in this one is only outmatched by her hostility, it's great. Preorder my angry hot mess of an investigator 👉 www.skyladawncameron.com/waverly-jone...
