WARNING: THE FOG BEARS ARE WHERE YOU LEAST EXPECT IT. I mean, they're in the fog, yes, but THAT'S A LOT OF ACREAGE. Okay, FINE, the fog bears are where you MOST expect it, in the fog. But that will just make you OVERCONFIDENT. Look out for the fog bears, is what I am saying. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow

So, correct me if I’m wrong, but all you have to do to abduct a woman now is dress in camo, cover your face and have a gun and we have to submit or risk death? How are we supposed to know if you’re ICE or not?

One thing about "original intent" is that the original Constitution was so hostile to the President that their rival was made Vice President, but now we have SCOTUS "originalists" happily giving the President absolute power over everything.*
* So long as they're a Republican.
* So long as they're a Republican.
the whole structure of this argument — independent agencies are politically unaccountable therefore the president must have removal power — treats congress as if it were a total nullity, or as if only the president truly represents the public.

We picked up an Aphonopelma chalcodes that we felt sorry for back in May. She was a little chunky back then, and absolutely did not know how to act like a normal spider. She had no real burrowing behaviors. This week she started burrowing. Today she took her first meal from us. Good job, Tarangela!
