Yep it’s this. Other fed agencies are being called on to assist ICE such as the FBI and the DEA.

 

Thoughts? More propaganda to instill fear or another step towards our own Night of Broken Glass?

There have been demonstrations against ICE actions all the past week in downtown L.A. (mostly high school kids walking out of class) but I worry that there’s not much that can be done to resist.

Also it’s convenient that the statistic that Latino men voted in favor of Trump is now commonly touted by liberals, as if that suddenly justifies the gestapo snatching LatAm people off the street and out of their homes.

Flimsy reason but the latter half of the 2010s looks better in retrospect compared to the world after 2020.

I cherish that point in my life, even as the safety bolts were coming loose in the world

Majora’s Mask is too short smuglord

Real answer, Termina Bay is such a buzzkill to play through. I enjoy the associated temple but I groan upon seeing that sickly teal ocean. Woodfall/Southern Swamp and Snowhead imo had a better art direction and map layout. In comparison, the Bay has those hostile green land turds, while the water is nigh-on empty except for more enemies. The Pirate’s Fortress is fine but going back-and-forth for the Zora eggs is another buzzkill. The area fees dilapidated and empty but not in the weird or creepy way as the rest of the game (the ranch with the Flatwoods aliens, Ikana Valley).

To use a tired cliche, the area needs more “mystery” and even “Lovecraftian” influences. It’s otherwise just a polluted beach inhabited by the local Zora and pirate populations. Bloodborne did it right with the art direction of the Fisherman’s Wharf.

As a side note, I wonder what the venn diagram looks like for Majora’s Mask enjoyers and Disco Elysium enthusiasts. The mask sidequests are the best part of the game imo which translates over to DE’s.

Evil shit especially considering the times we’re in. Best of luck, hope you can take them to the cleaners.

Prisons should be rehabilitation centers in practice, not these crimes against humanity in the US. However there is no rehabilitating the couple in the OP wall

Shit seems so dire. I was born in this fucking country, I barely speak Spanish yet as irrational as it might be rn, it’s not unreasonable to believe they’ll eventually try to round up others like me and deport us. My whole fucking life is here. The Trump admin is going after the most vulnerable right now, other “undesirables” could be next week. It feels completely pointless to plan for the future right now, the moon is falling in three days.

I wish it needn’t happen in my time.

the liberals have woken up and are now Resistance posting on every form of social media, especially Tiktok. Where was this energy the last four years? Your misplaced faith in the Dems won't help, voting is not a meaningful source of change. I hope more of them radicalize over the next 4+ years. What I hate the most is that if Kamala had won, they would be happy to forget about politics for another four years. Everything was KINDA SHIT BUT BEARABLE under Biden the way they tell it.

Fuck it, time for another beer
