ICE are alllll over Harlem right now, 116 & Frederick Douglass, checking IDs and targeting the area’s African community. Multiple people have been detained.

Community members are advising folks to carry citizenship documents - or stay away if they are at risk

Unlike some others on here, I want Obama fully hands on with this, however dissonant that is with his actual immigration record, because he has a reach no other Democrat has. But "you gotta read this one book, it lays it all out" has literally never worked. If they're listening now, tell them now!

It's going to be 24F/-4C in Orlando Saturday night. And if ONE of you motherfuckers try to tell me it's "not that cold", I'm going to shove a thermometer up your butt. It is for us, bitch. Ugh I'm so tired of that crap.

Canada burned down the White House the last time we tried to invade them.
Trump: "Canada gets a lot of freebies from us. They should be grateful, also, but they're not. I watched your prime minister yesterday, he wasn't so grateful. But they should be grateful to us. Canada lives because of the United States — remember that, Mark."

Use the good china!

I found fancy fountain pen inks dried out.

That expensive liquor oxidizes and changes flavor.

The lotion goes rancid.

Drink it, use it, don't save it for a brighter day. Find joy in your world. Grab Grandma's crystal for your morning juice. Don't wait. Life is short.

Unfortunately, in US journalism it is considered neutral to spread a lie, but it is considered "biased" to call out a lie. So, there is a structural asymmetry that rewards colorful lies with virality.

Don't age me like that it's only been 15 years lol.

And hilariously I had just re-read one of my old Sherlock fics for the first time in years and was remembering what an amazing time that was.
How many people watched Sherlock 25 years ago and still worry they're alcoholics when they can't plug their phone charger in the first time. Even if they haven't been drinking.

i don’t *really* care if we get 25 episodes seasons back, but i would REALLY just like to see any fucking consistency in release schedules and SOME SORT of standard length.

i am tired of trying to get a read on a show and not knowing how many episodes it even is to know if a slow burn is worth it

We're gonna need a truth and reconciliation commission and Nuremberg style trials to reckon with all of this evil, and any Dem candidate for office who shies away from a full reckoning in the name of "moving forward as a nation" can get well and truly fucked
