The 1st Amendment hasn’t stopped the current administration from deporting hundreds of legal residents for simply voicing their political opinions. Constitutional rights aren’t worth the paper they’re written on.
And did you see today’s news? We’re arresting judges now.
Oh man, I haven’t though about College Humor in 20 years.
it’s the first I’ve heard of maybe a US citizen being deported.
It’s been happening for years. From the Washington Post:
The U.S. government does not release data on how often ICE wrongfully detains or deports U.S. citizens. But investigations by media outlets, research institutes and oversight agencies have revealed that ICE has arrested, detained, deported and issued detainers — requests to local jails to hold a person in custody — for thousands of citizens since the agency was created in 2003. One 2011 study estimated that roughly 1 to 1.5 percent of deportees are U.S. citizens.

Accounts on your instances are being used for mass downvoting.
It can be a very interesting conversation starter. I love hearing about the places people grew up, and how they ended up in the place they currently live. It’s a much better topic than the small talk about work or TV shows or whatever else people discuss the first time they meet.
A full, refreshing night of sleep every night.
In America, you first become a legal permanent resident (we would say you have a “green card”). Once you have lived here for five years then you can apply for citizenship. The whole process is slow and can be somewhat arbitrary.
Another option is to enlist in the US military. After serving for several years you can get preferred status for citizenship.
As others said, this is a difficult time to be an immigrant in America. The current government is arresting and deporting legal residents based on flimsy accusations. You should consider waiting for Trump to be gone, or look at other countries.

The folks that host the toast.ooo instance have run an event like that for us the past two summers. Check out !canvas@toast.ooo to see last year’s result, and watch for news about the next one.
This reminds me that I need to plan some art for the next event!
At work I usually need to have multiple windows up, so no one window spans the width of the display. It’s often nice to have two documents side-by-side instead.
Tbh, I copy-pasted this from a health website. As far as I know, dried and canned beans are comparable. The biggest difference is that canned beans usually have added salt, which a lot of us could probably do without.
Yes. About 75% of Google’s revenue is from ads. Most (all?) of their free products exist to feed the advertising business in one way or another.
Wrong community?
I would rather find ways to encourage people to eat foods that are natural sources of magnesium. They provide lots of other dietary benefits beyond just magnesium.
Soy products (milk, flour, tofu)
Legumes and seeds
Nuts (almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts)
Peanuts and peanut butter
Whole grain breads and cereals (brown rice, millet)
Fruit (bananas, dried apricots, etc.)
Vegetables, particularly dark green, leafy vegetables (artichokes, chard, beet greens, avocados, etc.)
Dried beans (lima, black-eyed peas, navy)
Not like commercial AM/FM radio stations playing music, but radio in the more general sense. 5G cell phones and satellite-to-earth communication systems use that frequency range, for example.
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz are both “ISM bands.” These are frequencies that regulators have set aside for unlicensed use.
Fun fact: 2.4 GHz is free to use because of microwave ovens. Microwaves are really noisy around 2.45 GHz. Rather than try to regulate their radio emissions, or make people license their kitchen appliances as radio transmitters, the FCC allocated that patch of spectrum for free use. Any device that can tolerate the noise can use that bit of the radio spectrum.
Same. There’s are still updates, but only a few per year.
How so? Masked men grabbed Rumeysa Ozturk off the street, caught on camera and even questioned by passers by. I haven’t seen their identites released, and I don’t see how it will happen unless the federal government wants it to happen.
