      It's clear from the article that ICE is *miserable* here. They're freezing their asses off and being harassed everywhere they go. Property managers aren't allowing them access to rental properties and people know their rights and aren't letting them in.

KEEP IT UP.

      Gift rec for kids between 4-12 who have parents you hate, may I suggest the most diabolical gift we were ever gifted: a rock tumbler. 

They run for over a month, and they are LOUD. My 4yo got one last year and we ran it over the summer. 

Its been months and she looked at the rocks once. 🥲

      My crazy idea to cram all of the AT Protocol into a single deployable container. Works with SQLite, Postgres and potentially more data stores in the future. Steps are literally deploy container -> import your lexicons -> backfill ->  build your app with the GraphQL APIs.
