Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.**
He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

The pronoun labeler, which was by far the most useful labeler on the site, was deleted by its creator. But thanks to @ripperoni.com there’s a new one available. I highly recommend it. It’s a great way to share your pronouns or see someone else’s pronouns at a glance.

This Super Bowl Sunday, I’d like to introduce you all to the magical curse bowls used in Upper Mesopotamia and Syria in late antiquity. Written in Mandaic (as here) or Syriac Aramaic, they trap demons who trespass on a household by sucking them in with spiraling spells to the center of the bowl.

Hear from a DCPS 9th grader in this opinion piece:
"The trek to school on Jan. 29 and 30 included snowdrifts on curbs past our waists, unplowed streets, and buses running detours. ... Conditions were not safe for many students asked to attend class that day."

MAGA saw a Black man become president and decided they’d rather burn it all down than let it ever happen again.
There was nothing racist about Obama, he was simply Black.
Meanwhile their guy posts videos of the Obamas as monkeys during Black History Month.

I've been a critic of NYT for two decades--sometimes as a job--but I don't have monolithic view. There are great reporters working there. Headline writers, not so much. This is actively misleading. By framing it as a question it takes a side, asserting that he wants to w/out plausible evidence.
