Honestly, it feels a lot less how much money ICE has or who is wearing a camera, and a lot more how criminal acts aren't prosecuted criminally.

How are you supposed to describe the arousal of bloodlust in a vampire? No quickened pulse, no ragged breathing.
Parts of them involuntarily turning to mist, maybe. Sorta glitch-teleporting around. Anxious lip-nibbling.

Saying "the American experiment" sounds even more asinine than "I know not where."

A Facebook ad from DraftKings was reporting the 4-8 Bengals as having a real shot at making the playoffs this year, so I immediately reported the post for encouraging suicide or self harm.

For the love of God, stop reporting everything Mike Johnson says as a serious statement somebody has to have an answer for.
He's not even fun to make fun of.
