This is the answer. ICE is operating by the same rules the Ferguson police were during the 2014 riots, and the George Floyd protests in 2020. They can do whatever the my want up to and including break your door down in the middle of the night and shoot you while you sleep like they did to Breyonna Taylor.

Getting 2 is generous sometimes.

The Constitution is clear, the house votes to impeach, the Senate votes to convict and needs a supermajority.

Nixon resigned because it was a done deal that he would be convicted. Trump remained and his party did a little jury nullification and voted not guilty regardless of the evidence.

The SC didn’t need to do anything to stop impeachment (and doesn’t have the legal authority to do anything about it regardless)

See a doctor and ask for a sleep study. You might have sleep apnea, or some other condition.

I grew up here, being white doesn’t mean it’s not my culture. I don’t know jack about Mexican cuisine, but Tex Mex is my culture.

I will attempt to say a person’s name how they say it. If they say “call me [simple anglicized name]” then I will do that.

Most people seem to appreciate the effort. I’m sure my American vocals butcher some pronouciations, but I don’t make a big deal out of it and my work gives me a lot of chances to practice. I will always make a good faith attempt at last names.

I live in Texas and will pronounce food names of Mexican origin with a Mexican accent. Burrito, taco, chalupa.

Part of what makes plastic useful is that it DOESN’T DECOMPOSE.

What’s the use-case for stronger than steel material that rots in 3 weeks? State Fair buildings? Concert bleachers?

If you can make plastic bags out of it for groceries that would be useful. Doesn’t have to be stronger than plastic though, just equally flexible.

Seem fairly sound and self evident. Obviously there can be disagreements on judgement, but I can’t think of an scenario where the greater evil should not be opposed.

Different strokes.

I had my wife and best friend using signal until they dropped support for sms. Switching between apps was too much for us.

If nothing else the fall in birth rates world-wide will lead to political instability.

If they can maintain the infrastructure of wealth without workers they won’t care what people do, and if they can’t then the surveillance will collapse with the supply chains.

Either way there is an other side to this dark tunnel, not without suffering and death, but there is still hope for resistance to the new facism.

Economies that worked without cash still had debt.

Debt and obligation do not require money, but they do require people that will give you the things you need in exchange for “I’ll owe you one.”

Genz is 13 to 29 nowadays. Kids that age today are alpha.

Also kids that age in the photo unsupervised today can get their parents arrested.

Absolutely.

When you were growing up there were places you could go to be social without phones. Those don’t exist anymore. You can’t go to the mall and meet strangers, that would be weird and creepy. If you turn 21, bars do not have young people in them, they are for older people.

There is nowhere gen z people can go to meet other gen z people except online.

I know there is an exception somewhere but for the vast majority of young people today that’s the truth.

Fox happened in the 90’s, boomers were fucking shit up as far back as Reagan.

Not an expert but I am a patient.

Immune system reset is already a type of therapy for MS. Lemtrada and Mavenclad are two brand name drugs that work on this principle. You don’t take them for life. That’s good because they make you very ill, but after 2 rounds of treatment you can go years without needing any further therapy.

Could the measles virus work better than these drugs? Maybe, but all the reasons at the top of the comments present challenges.

DEI was always about hiring the best candidates instead of the cronies and nepo babies which you would know if you bothered to read anything about it.

Some of them wanted it out of government. The fundies of the day we’re willing to go along because their parents and grandparents were chased out of England for being wackados.

All of the practices in the book are inspired by real history.
