  • Luckily ICE is taking the matter very seriously:

    Newsweek asked DHS whether Ge had been tied up and whether it was cooperating with the lawsuit filed in New York. Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin did not answer these questions, but repeated similar messaging on detention deaths: that ICE takes each one seriously and thoroughly investigates them all.

    Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure 🥴

    And that’s not all, how about this knee-slapper:

    DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin, in a statement to Newsweek: “Chaofeng Ge passed away at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center. All in-custody deaths are tragic, taken seriously, and are thoroughly investigated by law enforcement. ICE takes its commitment to promoting safe, secure, humane environments for those in our custody very seriously.”

    These fuckers lie through their teeth. I really really hope there is a special circle in hell just for people like this. We’ve somehow managed to find the most vile humans on the planet and put them in charge.





  • That’s the magic of a good mixtape–it can take you so many familiar but wonderful places one after the next and the next and the next etc. I know it will all eventually get old in the same fashion, but it keeps the fire burning longer ♥️… then you gotta wait for the next “open season” listening phase where I’m receptive to new sounds to add new finds to the next "songs that are everything right now"mix and begin the cycle anew (with some choice selections from the previous mixes, naturally)


  • I’m sure this isn’t the first case of someone posing as an ICE agent and terrifying their neighborhood, but boy is it eye-opening to read about. They have given all the nutters out there cart blanche to start rounding up their local brown people while wearing a mask and brandishing a gun. Luckily this one diffused before someone got hurt, but just play the numbers long enough and someone will pay with their life over these evil scum and their alpha/hero/patriot complex. I still can’t believe this is all happening









  • As someone who can have difficulty socializing (unless it’s something I’m passionate or knowledgeable about, but then i risk oversharing), i decided to try reading a book i ran into called Supercommunicators. It actually touches on a number of things you mentioned here, just curious if you happen to have read it yourself… It’s been pretty enlightening for me, and i find the things I’ve picked up from it can easily be applied to daily life. Some good food for thought, at very least!
