And it isn’t deportation. Deportation is sending someone to another country, generally the one they originally came from and where they hopefully have citizenship. This is paying some completely unrelated country to imprison someone with no legal avenue for due process or release. The best description I can come up with is kidnapping and imprisonment abroad.

ETA: it’s been pointed out that Mr Garcia is originally from El Salvador so this isn’t one of the cases where we’re sending Venezuelans to an unrelated country. It’s still super fucked up since the dude had legal status and no criminal record and no due process. Is El Salvador just a lawless dictatorship? The CIA just completely fucked up Latin America for generations :(

People should be charged with a crime when their unsecured firearms are used in a crime like this. I’m not holding my breath on this one. No way a cop actually faces criminal charges for this. But they should :(

I think we’re already in a cold civil war. Most folks are in denial but it’s escalating at a breakneck pace.

Tiktok is considered a National Security threat that must be banned because it will give our data to China. Let’s see if Zucc faces absolutely any consequences. I won’t hold my breath

Ohio either is or has recently been a swing state. The rise of fascism is terrifying but people in Ohio should have plenty of options for improving the situation and fighting back. And in even the most conservative red states, many of cities are blue. Your best bet may be to move to a city in Ohio. If that’s too expensive, then I have some bad news for you about Oregon (and probably much of Canada). Rural Oregon can be pretty conservative and racist AF. Cool cities in Oregon aren’t cheap relative to Ohio suburbs and exurbs. Living in a fun neighborhood in Cleveland or Columbus, joining some Democratic or Leftist political organizations and taking more direct action with like minded people may help with the feelings of hopelessness and may actually have a positive impact.

But free advice from a random on the internet is worth what you pay for it 🤷. It’s easy for me to make suggestions from my left leaning coastal city. Ultimately you have to decide how to best protect yourself mentally and physically.

There’s no need to be so aggressive. And the important thing isn’t a mis communication over Claritin vs Claritin-D. The important point is that Loratadine will do fuck all for the common cold. So unless you are also having allergies, you’re taking a medication that isn’t going to help and overpaying. Just get stand alone pseudoephedrine.

Claritin is Loratadine

Claritin-D is Loratadine with added pseudoephedrine. People can buy all the non-D Claritin they want with no restrictions.

You have my sympathies. It’s kind of wild how we have so many advances in medicine and technology, yet a cold can still knock you on your ass for a week and all anyone can do is some half assed symptom management with Tylenol and Sudafed

If you use 2 packets of salt with the irrigation bottle it will help draw fluid from your swollen sinus tissues.

Claritin is not pseudoephedrine. And while both drugs are helpful, neither will magically make your sinuses 100% clear if you have a bad cold. And actually, IDK if Claritin will help at all with a cold since it is an antihistamine. The stuffy nose from a cold isn’t a histamine response, right?

I saw that some bodegas in NYC are selling egg loosies. They referred to them as loosies but they were 3 eggs in a plastic bag.
