I'm not a cool guy anymore, as if I ever was before. The Arsenal, dogs, etc.
West Ham very lucky to avoid complete embarrassment there. Well done to the Burton lads, they probably deserved more than taking an L today.

Oh well, that West Ham match was hilarious until it wasn't. Summerville is a heck of a player.

The $38.3 billion they are going to spend for interment camps could fund the annual budget of NASA, the EPA, and all clean energy R&D at the Department of Energy—combined.
Breaking news: ICE expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the U.S. and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of people, according to agency documents.

100% support this idea.
I would love to have a discussion with Jake Tapper about the history of the term "concentration camp" and its usage. It would do so much good if he would actually address this head on.
God the gall of @jaketapper.bsky.social lecturing that Minneapolis small business owner about the meaning of the word "concentration camp" while people are being crammed into poorly resourced buildings by the thousands and shuttled off never to be heard from again

The little business buddy sat next to me on this flight is absolutely on the powder. Hasn't stopped moving, might be having sexual relations with his outlook calendar, randomly clicking between spreadsheets every ten seconds. It's distracting; I am just trying to chill after an intense work trip.

Extremely happy I was waiting to board a flight.

Currently drinking a beer in the Ontario airport, not watching the match, how are my nerves so frayed?

History rhymes. At the beginning of the Japanese American incarceration- I’ll never call it an “internment” again because fuck euphemisms - the WRA camps weren’t prepared to feed/house not just the sheer # of people, but whole families. Many prisoners had to plant illicit gardens for sustenance. 1/x
And what awaits these clients in Texas? Unspeakably cruel and inhumane treatment.

1. Rotten food. I had a client explain she had to make a half-pint of milk and an apple last every day because the other meals consisted of spoiled or rotten food. One client wasn’t fed for >36 hours.

Just got back to my hotel after my final day working in California - 14 hour day - and the door to my room is dead. Walking to go find a drink because they have to charge it 🤣🤣🤣

When I got the contract to write a history of concentration camps in 2014, I hoped to keep the US from ending up here. That didn't work out! But now it's critical to understand how much is already in process and the enormity of what's coming. The sooner we act to stop it, the more people we'll save.

Khusanov got destroyed by Donnarumma. Surely he has to come off after that?
