Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.
It's a sign of the times that AI companies are deciding whether or not to allow the military to engage in mass surveillance of US citizens and this is treated as a legitimate debate of two reasonable positions.
Giardiniera is an underrated pizza topping (except here in Chicago, where it damn well better be an option).
This looks excellent. Would make.
Goddamn, they did Count Chocula DIRTY on this packaging.
I saw a comment the said we aren’t “angry enough.” But all we are is angry. Our veins circulate it like acid. It cracks our sternums. It poisons and paralyzes us. We hiss and spit at each other, all impotent, helpless rage.
We don’t need more anger. We need more direction.
But how will you waste your precious and expensive inks then, Big Print would like to know.
Frankly, I expected better from a FIFA Peace prize winner
Mexico has invited countries worldwide to send aid to them, and they will deliver it to Cuba, officially becoming an aid bridge to the Island. Mexico fully rejects the US blockade, and the Navy will continue to escort humanitarian ships to protect them from the US. Says:
"Cuba is not alone."
REMINDER: Gun violence is the leading killer of children in America.
Not immigrants, not trans people. Guns. #SOTU
I wish to be 17 again if only for my ability to consume an entire batch of the velveeta + rotel dip queso with absolutely no negative consequences
"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending *** As of the end of January, there have been no convictions."
Yoon and Prince Andrew wishing they had a friend like John Roberts.
HORROR FILM SAFETY 1. It's not "the wind." 2. Never split up. 3. Listen to the "crazy" guy. 4. Authorities are useless. 5. Avoid bathroom mirrors. 6. Refuse sewer-clown gifts. 7. Don't assume! Kill twice. 8. Children are evil.

I saw a conspiracy theory yesterday that the goal is to eliminate all local data storage and push everything into the corporate cloud where it will be scraped to train A.I. (and exploit us)
And I'm having a difficult time dismissing it
serious (if not unbiased) question: Can you name an artist, in any medium, with a body of work equivalent Frederick Wiseman's? 47 films over nearly 60 years, some of the best right at the end, a cumulative portrait of staggering breadth and insight. In movies? Only Scorsese comes close.
If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.
The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”
It’s about control.
Medicare for All would save $450B a year.
Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.
Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.
It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.
It’s about priorities.
When the Supreme Court allowed immigration agents to consider race during sweeps, Justice Brett Kavanaugh said that citizens shouldn’t be concerned because agents will “promptly let the individual go.”
For these Americans, that wasn’t true.

The Grammys. The Olympics. The Super Bowl. The message is that the world loves diversity. Don’t let the billionaires tell you otherwise.
Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Yeah, I don’t think vermouth has a high enough alcohol content for that. But it sounds great for deglazing the pot and starting a sauce.
Nothing says America better than the 'Trump accounts' ad that was followed by a Draft Kings ad
It’s funny how few guardrails Trump has shown exist in government.
President decides to sell pardons to the highest bidder? Oops, I guess there’s nothing that can be done besides a few mean tweets.
Elon Musk went in and canceled USAID. So why don’t the Fucking Democrats do the same to DHS and ICE
Damn, you’re ready to take this shit international already!
Jasmine Crockett speaking to a crowd from a microphone
Jasmine Crockett: “Most of us already know who Trump is — we already know there are no bounds to how low he’s willing to go. We know that he has no moral compass. We know that he is a disgrace — when will Republicans in Congress condemn his behavior — your silence is complicity & it is very loud”
REPEATING: Dems really need to begin more forcefully presenting a narrative that Trump is erratic and unstable and no longer able to carry out the duties of the presidency and therefore must be removed from office. It's time.
This needs to get into the public narrative articulately emphatically now.
