Throwaway for obvious reasons.


I work for ICE, currently. I am demoralized and horrified at what is going on. I constantly ask myself if I should leave and decide on NO. Why?


If I quit they will replace me with someone who might ignore a pesky detail like a suspects rights. Just the other day I told a local police department they cant hold someone on one of our administrative warrants, and I know a proud boy would have "overlooked" that and had the PD hold the guy. These new guys coming in wont stop being jerks when Trump leaves office, and a lot of my coworkers feel like they gotta stay to make sure things go back to being sane.


Damn Trump. Damn the Barbie he put in charge, and damn Homan. I swore an oath to the constitution just like they did, but I refuse to wipe my behind with it just because the dictator decided he doesn't like brown people.

A cousin of mine who it British but lives in the states announced the other month that he was considering joining ICE.

My grandmother - a woman that lived in the UK illegally for 60years before getting citizenship - and his own mother let it be known that if he ever returns to the UK he will not be welcome by any family because of the shame he has brought with his ridiculous right wing views.

His own brothers have also warned him not to return to the UK.

Im always reminded that when my sister tried to join ICE she was deemed unfit during the psych evaluation for being too empathetic but passed all the physical qualifications. 

That was in the early 2000’s when it was just forming. 

That tells you ALL you need to know about how much of a psychopath you need to be to be accepted. This is especially true when you realize they LOWERED THE STANDARDS under Trump because they couldn’t get enough qualified people to join. .

All the damage pregnancy can do to your body. And that there are things you can do to prevent or minimize it.

Anne Boleyn didn’t want to marry the king. She was forced. You could not say no to the king back then.

The median life expectancy in the 1800s was around 40 and people were eating organic food, but they didn’t have modern medicine. The median life expectancy now is around 77, but weirdly people want to romanticize that era by avoiding medical advances.

As a native, basically all the things not said in history class and the generational trauma that still severely impacts tribes throughout the country. The fact we’re statistically the race most likely to be SA’d in some form even today. That includes men and women.

we are stuck in this loop of letting rich men make our lives hell. been doing it for centuries and we know it. yet nothing has been done to stop it yet.

The Appalachian mountains & Scottish highlands were part of the same mountain range that was called the central pangean mountains. Which makes all the interesting lore regarding both kind of make sense?

Christopher Columbus thought manatees were mermaids and called them ugly
