ICE abducted your family or friends. It feels a little grotesque to think about immigration enforcement through a personal finance lens, but it’s not nothing. How many people are now in a precarious position because they had to scramble to find the money for their loved ones?
a bus ticket or a plane ticket to get them home, take time off of work to get them out of detention, and do all this in short order before they get shipped to another country. You put money away in a rainy day fund hoping to take a vacation and now you’re smashing the piggy bank because
Something that really stands out to me in this thread (besides the genuine goodness on display) is how much this immigration enforcement functions like a tax on us. Your loved one gets detained arbitrarily and now you have to pay for a lawyer, pay for

Jake Mangum spots kid in the crowd, tosses the ball, and her brother catches it and gives it to her. Dudes rock.
This is so incoherent that it only makes sense as a billionaires reactionary brain farts. Eg: public employees are not “priests” and are over compensated. Reality: they are underpaid and have been serially abused. Next point, people engaging in public life (read: DOGE, Palantir) deserve our grace.
not to start discourse but something about the name “America’s test kitchen” turns me off and I don’t know why. The people involved all seem nice and professional and skilled but the branding has always felt a little weird to me for reasons I can’t articulate

Honestly Dolly Parton has a ton of songs which could be argued to be the best song ever recorded. “Light of a Clear Blue Morning” has felt especially resonant lately.
always weird when someone writes it as ya’ll instead of y’all
I tried my hand at recreating the crunchy boi from compliments only for dinner tonight. I was a bit heavy handed with the red wine vinegar and the aioli, but on the whole it was quite good. Need to continue to step up my sandwich game.
Richard Dawkins @RichardDawkins Saw a down-and-out in Seattle last night. His sign said not "I need food" or "I need a job" but "I need a fat bitch". What could this mean?

I know that there’s no way to enforce that and there shouldn’t be, but the utter gall to look at the state of society in 2026 and say “I’m going to actively choose to weaken the social fabric even further.” The entitlement is repellent.
“I understand we live in a giant city and we have to have rules, and that's what makes society society," she says. "But I do have a feeling sometimes I'm just gonna make this one not apply to me.”
People who talk like this should be legally barred from owning dogs.
this wikipedia editor is orbiting the moon right now!
watched the artemis II lunar flyby and then saw a matinee of project hail mary. real space-maxxing going on
these are dark days but artemis II is a real ray of hope. humanity at our best does some really incredible things.
crying because they’re naming a lunar crater after reid wiseman’s late wife and it’s visible from earth so he and his children can look up and see her in the night sky 😭
