Sometimes I type replies that my first thoughts think are good ideas.
More often than I'd like to admit, my second thoughts tell me "stop being stupid, don't post that."
But sometimes things get past my second thoughts, and my third thoughts say "Was it /really/ that clever? Best just delete it."

I’ve heard from immigration attorneys that clients say ICE guards lay out the WRAP device (essentially a full-body straitjacket) on the tarmac as a threat — “do what we say or you’re getting the WRAP on the whole flight.”
And here’s proof, from Seattle livestream today via @lalabote.bsky.social.

It needs to be treated as importantly as "no animals were harmed during the making of this film"
Because yeah, for a time? Animals got harmed and people accepted it as a part of the process. And it was wrong.
So is this, and it needs to stop.

I’ll say this though - I’ve *almost* more respect for the ones who say the quiet part out loud. The “DEI” smokescreen is the sniveling coward’s way of saying you hate anyone who isn’t a white cishet man.

This is fucking pathetic on Steam’s part. There’s no way in hell “has muslims” should be approved as criticism, and the DEI whining is the same hateful sentiment with a flimsy cover draped on.
I can only assume Valve *agrees* with the bigotry if it’s gonna keep claiming such nerdzi shit is valid.

We now learn that Fifa had a very specific "ask" in exchange for its "Peace Award" to Trump, with loads of gold trinkets, and that was dismissal of a criminal corruption case against senior Fifa officials. And Trump granted it. Another corrupt bargain, barely noticed (and ignored by US media).

Day after getting my COVID and flu vaccines and the Soreness has begun.
Obviously it's better to deal with a day or two of my immune system freaking out and trying to murder everything in a paranoid frenzy than getting a hard case of COVID but still. Owie. Moving hurts.

“Guzmán’s daughter was still in the NICU, unable to eat or breathe independently. The doctors had planned a meeting to review the baby’s prognosis and care plans… As Guzmán went to buckle her seatbelt, she looked out the window and noticed they were surrounded.”
Her baby was in the NICU. She was in ICE detention.
Before Trump took office, postpartum immigrants were rarely detained by ICE. Nayra Guzmán was detained while her 15-day-old baby was in the NICU.
