Sounds ominous, but it can’t be any worse than how things are going over here anyway.

I, for one, welcome my new northern overlords, and will happily volunteer myself to tap your maple trees and sharpen your ice skates.

A $5000 drone for a $25,000,000 air defense system is a hell of a trade.

It has been ICE policy since 2021 to require the use of body worn cameras, dating back to ICE Memo 19010.1

Don’t believe the bullshit about a government shutdown. ICE is the recipient of the largest budget for a paramilitary law enforcement organization in history, and they’ve had 5 years to purchase body cameras.

Custom merch company that worked with a variety of artists, from Bad Religion to Cannibal Corpse.

Anyone know what’s being blurred out on the concrete blocks?

It’s a sad day when you can’t even rely on an unspeakable mutli-dimensional hellgod to sell tickets.

Since tape trading, for me. Don’t invent the means to copy the media if you don’t want the media copied.

No one ever employ this user in medicine or food service.

I want to say that they’d be a legal loophole in favor of the citizen…but I think we can all guess which way the chips would fall if we were to actually try and exploit such a loophole in the current political climate.

Melanin deficiency.

Too bad the Supreme Court ruled years ago that complete 4th Amendment protections don’t apply to areas within 100 miles of a US border, including coastline…

(Fun fact: the vast majority of the US population lives there. All of Florida, all of Maine, most of California, etc etc etc)

US Border Patrol Authority and the 100 Mile Border Zone

Said the same week as RFK once again floats the idea of institutionalizing the disabled.

These are not off-the-cuff comments. Somewhere behind the veneer of stupidity, more and more members of the current government are pushing the need to imprison or conscript larger and larger swathes of the US population.

Rare good use of AI, as a tool to help human researchers find the needle in the haystack of unremarkable data.

Can confirm. I was an avid 90s Star Trek convention attendee, and got to hear a couple quick Bab5 anecdotes from him years ago.

Walter Koenig was a great Chekov, but his role as Bester the PsyCop from Babylon 5 was a more nuanced role that gave him way more to do.

And conversely, someone who, either through general disposition, trauma, or other causes, shows little emotion at a verdict doesn’t somehow deserve that verdict less because of a limited reaction.

Emotions have nothing to do with facts and have no place in an impartial system of justice.

I refuse to watch anything with Tucker Carlson’s big dumb head on it.

Yeah, well, I condemn the limp reaction to a literal ongoing genocide by one of our supposed “allies”.

I guess we’re even, then.

I’m shocked. Shocked and appalled, I tell you.
