A US citizen with a learning disability who has just suffered a medical emergency asks a CBP officer for directions outside the emergency room. He ends up detained in an icebox for ten days and has the assistant secretary of DHS lying about him to the public at large. popular.info/p/us-citizen...
![In an interview with Popular Information, his first with any media outlet, Hermosillo said DHS'.
's account was false.
According to Hermosillo, he was visiting his girlfriend's family in Tucson from his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Several hours before his arrest, Hermosillo was transported to a hospital in Tucson by ambulance after suffering from a seizure. He has a New Mexico state ID, but did not take it with him during the medical emergency.
After being released from the hospital following treatment, Hermosillo did not know how to return to where he was staying.
He approached the Border Patrol officer because he was looking for someone to help him. "I saw a car, and I askled] him for help," Hermosillo said. He told the officer that he was staying in Tucson.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:on5oeywiqx32fh2zau473wz6/bafkreie3gc6fndj7mtotijddm4eg264zgsqxpn4nbekb3xq5ubdmskvr6u@jpeg)
!["You"
re not from here. Do you have your
papers?" the officer said, according to Hermosillo. When the officer asked where he was from, Hermosillo said he told the officer,
"New Mexico." The officer then accused Hermosillo of lying. "Don't make me lout] like [I'm] stupid," the officer said. "I know you're from Mexico." After that, Hermosillo said, he was arrested.
Hermosillo said that he never told the officer that he was born in Mexico, was a citizen of Mexico, or entered the country illegally. And he would not have said those things because they are not true. He signed the transcript released by DHS because the officer ordered him to "sign everything." But Hermosillo did not read it, because he cannot read.
According to Hermosillo's girlfriend, Grace Hernandez, Hermosillo has learning disabilities and can only write his name.
Hermosillo said he did not graduate from high school and dropped out after the 10th grade.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:on5oeywiqx32fh2zau473wz6/bafkreiensu64iobo4ftuqeaighf2p5k745uzdnmhcecugsi4ec74dnqse4@jpeg)

Wait. Are there other examples of animals who only eat certain foods at certain times of day, despite that food being equally available throughout the 24 hour cycle?
It’s cute that we have special breakfast melons.

My 9yo has been working on this jumping spider. So proud of him, he is going to make amazingly creative and great things. But also feeling sad that the provincial government where we live does not value the arts, or the sciences, or nature. 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️

I'm a proud mother. Whether I'm walking my son to school or reading him a bedtime story, I do everything to make sure he grows up loved and cared for.
And for the sponsor of the drag ban to say that my existence is a fetish is false & cruel.
I'm glad we were able to defeat this hateful bill today.

Would anyone be interested if I started offering free "office hours"?
I would love to share my knowledge of arthropods, ecology, taxonomy, writing, illustrating, mechanical engineering, and/or running a small business.

My 4 year old slept at his grandparent’s house last night, and opened his LEGO Star Wars advent calendar this morning but was told that he should wait to open the packet with me like we do every morning.
So, instead of opening it, he just built it himself inside the packet. I love his little brain.

Love this take
The echo chamber thing has been pissing me off. I don’t use social media to get a nuanced perspective on the news (that’s what news apps are for?), I use it to socialize. I shouldn’t have to socialize with folks who threaten or attack me.

Anyway, it's not an echo chamber, it's a neighborhood cookout in my backyard. Everyone's invited and welcome, but the second you act like a shithead to me or our neighbors, I throw you over the fence into the gully.

Calling on the Brooklyn parenting hivemind, lost lovey! We lost my son's "blue kitty" yesterday somewhere between the Parkside station and our cousin's house in Windsor Terrace (we walked through the Parade Ground). His mom made it for him when he was an infant, we're devastated. Anyone seen it?
