I grew up in Hesperia. Desert town, distinct lack of sidewalks.

Except they aren’t targeting the one group they always said they would; masked thugs snatching people off the street.

Never should have made it to the Supreme Court in the first place. Plaintiffs are literally arguing that Congress has to manage all programs itself. Massively stupid.

Depends on who responds. Some will just nod and inform the caller that they are indeed federal law enforcement, but others (who absolutely despise ICE as cosplaying wannabes) may decide that taking the actors into custody, even if only for their own protection if a crowd is forming, is the best course of action. If it happens enough, it should force DHS to direct agents to properly identify themselves, and even if not, some actual consequences for these thugs may discourage some from participating. And as others have pointed out, friction between law enforcement agencies is in the population’s best interest.

and there are still masked officers people abducting people off the street

If they refuse to show law enforcement ID, they are just armed people impersonating law enforcement. Call 911!

Well, after last night I think it’s safe to say I will not be liking the Dodgers as a whole any time soon. Ohtani and Teo are cool, though. Impossible to dislike Mookie.

I really hope Iran doesn’t start lobbing missiles at Al Udeid, that would be a catastrophic escalation. I don’t think they will, despite some people’s attempt to depict the Iranian regime as crazy, they are definitely rational and acting in a way they think is in their best interest. I think they realize that attacking the US directly would not be beneficial to their agenda. Anyway, this is the world’s first good look at war conducted via ballistic missile, aside from the brief exchange last year.

Don’t make me like the Dodgers, please.

Trump fan and murderer? Doesn’t sound too Christian to me.

Confused nation could have sworn Jared Leto was already a convicted sex offender…

WTF is Gumroad? A me-too rehash of a million other shitty e-commerce sites?

How much does everyone else have to suffer while these children rediscover government?

Say hello to Ferrari!

“Ambient 1: Music for Airports” basically invented the genre of specifically-designed ambient music. Before that, it was all background noise and Muzak.

Pesero is another.

This is becoming more common in a variety of jobs. I work in tech, and have heard from colleagues about their experiences with nanny software. Without a union, your best bet is malicious compliance. I would start looking for hacker communities and posting there, because there can be simple but non-obvious ways to circumvent controls while still seeming to comply, which protects your job.

I recently found out my municipality does not add flouride to most of our water, because it’s naturally flouridated enough already to meet the recommended amount.

Goddamn it.
