I find it remarkable that on the day Netflix released a blockbuster (and expensive) set of episodes everyone is talking about a tiny show from Canada, which most people watched illegally, that cost a tiny % of that Netflix show.

Ghost is a giant Pacific octopus, a species that lives just three to five years.
Ghost is also dying, and her last act will be privately tending to her unfertilized eggs that will never hatch.

"I never, ever saw any man doing something inappropriate with a woman of any age," Maxwell told Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, a former defense lawyer to Trump.

Alright-y then. CASE CLOSED. We can all move on. Hey—why is this woman even in prison?

Anytime I hear 17 different versions of a story involving Person X, I always assume that Person X has tried out a variety of lies on different people. Is that wrong?

I wonder if anyone has ever looked into what happens when elected leaders with authoritarian tendencies create massive law enforcement divisions accountable only to them that are comparably funded to the military but specifically designed to be used domestically.
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

It’s just heartwarming to see all the Redhats celebrating giving up their parents’ healthcare, their children’s food, and their Constitutional rights—just to help pay for Jeff Bezos’s wedding.

A habit I started many years ago that I would heartily recommend to anyone is this: any time I buy a novel or nonfiction book at a book store, I ask the staff to recommend a poetry book to also buy, preferably by a member of a marginalized community. I can’t tell you how much it’s enriched my life.
