IDK why right-wingers keep bringing up Obama's record deportations, it just shows that if you wanted to have a conservative immigration policy without partisan militias occupying cities and gunning people down in the streets you could do it and a lot of americans would be fine with it

Mamdani: "I am in support of abolishing ICE. What we see is an entity that has no interest in fulfilling its stated reason to exist. We're seeing a government agency that is supposed to be enforcing some kind of immigration law, but instead what it's doing is terrorizing people."

I think a lot of the world looks at the US and sees 330 million spoiled, stupid rich people and I wish it was easier to explain why that's wrong to people who've only seen New York and maybe DC or LA, but you can never convince them that they don't understand the whole thing.

How to tell if someone knows anything about the localization industry.

If someone assumes the work's translator decided how to localize names and key terms, whether or not to use honorifics, or what order names should be in?

They have no day-to-day knowledge of actual industry conditions.

WH sources say Venezuela's opposition leader committed the "ultimate sin": She accepted the Nobel Peace prize.

“If she had turned it down and said, ‘I can’t accept it because it’s Donald Trump’s,’ she’d be the president of Venezuela today,” one said.

You couldn't publish this today. You'd have to cloak it under several layers of metaphor.

Somehow we're back in April of 2003 when exactly the same people were shrieking in triumph in exactly the same way about Iraq.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

This big guy, doctor built like a brick house, smarter than an ox, first in his class at Harvard, came up to me “Sir”, he said “sir, you have the thinnest runniest bloo of any President I have ever seen probably since Lincoln. Scientists should study how thin your blood is.”
