Interesting read: Cato Institute: Incarcerated Immigrants in 2016: Their Numbers, Demographics, and Countries of Origin

That's what several of my pet-owning friends recommend, and the site I'm planning to use if/when I transition my cat to nicer foods/litters than what my Kroger carries, so sort of second-hand endorsement here.

The audit, AFAICT from reading, revealed that officers were padding their numbers by pretending to run breath tests (covering the straw port or blowing in themselves) to meet productivity quotas, which is a completely different situation (and sounds far preferable to having a beating and a...

What do you feel like playing? Shooters? RPGs? Puzzles? Procedural? Stories?

Jeff Vogel has launched his first Kickstarter. If you miss (or still enjoy) isometric Windows/Mac RPGs that sacrifice graphics in favor of story, I would heartily recommend checking his stuff out. The Geneforge 5-game series has one of my favorite all-time videogame settings (I'm currently...

Fairly sure I caught something at Momocon. Been waking up really tired, have muscle aches all over, more congestion than usual. It's stacking with my pre-existing malaise for extra fun. Made yesterday's job interview (IMO) really bad. Kinda need that side job, since my savings imploded, so I'm...

How much space/power/bandwidth do you need? It can be pretty affordable nowadays. My Scaleway VC1S does what I need for my hobby stuff, and costs me slightly less than $5/mo:

Seems like Balenciaga doing their thing, if this article is any indication. W Magazine: With a $1,100 Shopping Bag, Balenciaga Keeps Trolling and the Internet Keeps Falling For It

Many little victories, mostly filtered out of the messes. I haven't had any non-fleeting suicidal ideation since early April, and haven't drunk alone since the February breakdown. Things are better. I have Friday through Monday off work, a Momocon membership, and crash space in the hotel room...

Ohhh yes. Very often underage, too, and full of youthful zeal.

A noticeable part of Tumblr's community encourages disclosure of past traumas and anything that makes you atypical, lest you be dogpiled for having an opinion where you shouldn't (this is specially relevant when it comes to wrongthink in the many discourses). Many people, younger ones specially...

To be fair, and as common as that is due to both good and bad reasons, it doesn't say self-diagnosed.

That was a very persuasive read! I do wonder what the arguments against it might look like (perhaps that the conditions that lead to the 2000-level funding are anomalous?), I'll try and do some googlin' tonight.

Isn't that at least partially because your students, as a population, have turned into a risk-free investment vehicle? Student loans are attractive to lenders and schools AFAIK, since they can't be discharged in bankruptcy except through adversarial/undue hardship weirdness, are given out like...

@PatrThom Looks like that one got taken down or somesuch. Here's, I think, the same trailer:

Seems like this only affects people that rent their router from Comcast, so I should be unaffected. Own the modem and router, since they paid for themselves in under a year. They charge for paper bills (or rather, give a paperless discount), and none of their e-mails to me have included the full...

This feels like a headline from The Onion... The Indian Express: Pakistani girl who died in Texas shooting ‘wanted to experience American culture’

Reading about the alpha-gal allergy is what brought me to the pork-cat one. I live in prime tick real estate and own cats, so both were of interest.
