I am the CTO of Antifa (Southwest Region) and you can have my ssh keys when you pry them from my cold, dead hands.

A deep dish pie
Joints are sore
Blood pressure high
Pudding, flan
And crème brûlée
None are safe

ICE protest idea: everyone sing Red Sector A at them, see if they get the hint.

In this administration, where utter incompetence and hostility toward the agency they're ostensibly leading is the style of the day? To be disbarred would be a feather in her cap.

The oaks can't help their feelings if they like the way they're made

And they wonder why the maples can't be happy in their shade

Backup software consistently loses connection to NAS.

Backup software tech support blames NAS.

Will g-d help us when America burns
We're vicious creatures and we're all taking turns
Will g-d help us when the insurrection rages
We've got a drug
We're burning pages of lies
