It's clear from the article that ICE is *miserable* here. They're freezing their asses off and being harassed everywhere they go. Property managers aren't allowing them access to rental properties and people know their rights and aren't letting them in.
KEEP IT UP.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

Hi! We're a small business & we'd love to get a sale today.

It's so hard, we know everyone is spread thin. Us too.
But if you like vintage / gothy stuff, everything below is still available, thanks for your time:

And don't keep offering, either.
"Are you sure?"
"It's open bar!"
"Just one."
"Keep me company."
"No one's keeping track."

"The bottle's already open."

Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

I know many of us sometimes pine for the days of internet yore, when community formed out of nowhere. So let me tell you about my favorite lesbian goat farmers and soap makers, the Hairy Farmpit Girls.
I've been following the Farmpit for years on Fb, from shortly after Swan and Jen got married.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”
It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”
