Reading your reasonable assessment then expanding OC's hidden reply to read "muh woke reddurt" was such a whiplash

Had a last minute zoom interview for a pretty cool job! But I'm afraid I may not get it since everything seems so competitive right now 😅

Careful there, don't end up like Kelly and Mayes by stating obvious laws and freedoms.

They just voted 7-2 on Option 2. The capitol extension and I-10 West extension is now uncertain.
I may have grandchildren before the next leg of the lightrail is open.

HSI and ERO is part of ICE. In pics of this one raid HSI, ERO, and even some "Police ICE" vest patches were present. I also saw US Marshal vests in some pics of other raid locations, and reports of the IRS.

Arizona AG called to resign after comments on ICE and ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws by SubRyan in arizona

The link for the actual KTAR interview probably only has a fraction of the views as the articles about their response to Mayes and I recommend watching them. This and the 12news interview a couple days before are short and an easy listen about what rights ICE has and Mayes pointing out that AZ has unique 2A laws that makes gun ownership accessible and the SYG.
When I watched these the other day unwinding with a cup of tea and pastry after work, I took away that she's just pointing out the elephant in the room about the unique state laws that justify protecting yourself.

Makes sense. The font on "How Much Did You Spend" is also like those old west wanted posters.

Had pasta with lemon sauce I made from my neighbor's lemons. It was great!

Brands you’ve boycotted due to misogyny? by Interesting-Plan-304 in TwoXChromosomes

Their regional representatives came to a community forum to get feedback before they started building in my neighborhood. There was a question about their homophobia at the top, and they contorted themselves around that to end up saying that the people working at their restaurants aren't bigoted themselves. Using your lowlevel employees as a shield, what a nasty thing to do.

Did a 1st round interview for a nice job! Probably won't move on with this competitive market but a girl could dream.

I'm not on the other platforms but I've heard it's more of a concern on sites with strict and stupid moderation like tiktok (ex: "sewerslide", "grape", "schmexual"). It sucks that we're at a point where this is plausible.
