  • I want one too! Only because I love Lego 😆

  • Thank you, I needed the laugh

  • Aren't 99% of local and state law enforcement Trump supporters?

  • Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) traveled to El Salvador on Wednesday, but officials refused to let him visit an erroneously deported Maryland man who the Supreme Court has ordered returned to the United States.

    Because he's dead

    Ramirez, in a letter to House Homeland Security Committee chair Mark Green (R-Tenn.) first obtained by Axios, requested he authorize an official CODEL to El Salvador.

    Given that the Administration's use of CECOT for illegal and unconstitutional deportations is rife with 'administrative errors' ... I urgently request a CODEL to conduct oversight," she wrote.

    The song Hotel California comes to mind here.

    Reps. Jason Smith (R-Mo.) and Riley Moore (R-W.Va.) both shared photos of themselves at the notorious maximum security prison on Wednesday in posts on X praising the administration's deportation policies.

    I can't even.....WTF

  • Ouch. And here I thought I was terrified because I'm on SSDI. I hope you get to escape from this idiocy.

    As for me, I'm trying to enjoy my life to the fullest that I can in my current situation and biding my time until I get disappeared. I don't have the financial means to even attempt to get to another country, and none of them would want a "parasite" like me anyways.

  • Man I miss old Looney Tunes.

    I went and saw the new movie with Porky Pig and Daffy Duck: The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie and it was pretty darn good.

    And listen, I know now isn't really a good time to watch a movie and get distracted, but it did a pretty good job of distracting me and made my mental health a tiny bit better not having to think about what we're going through and will be going through.

  • I don't even think we have that long.

    Well, I'll rephrase that: I don't think I have that long being on SSDI, Medicaid, and in HUD housing. I have no doubt I'll be disappeared as a "parasite" long before the collapse. I do have a cane and I'm not afraid to use it for what it wasn't intended for so I won't go down without a fight.

    But given the fact that nearly half of Project 2025 has been implanted in a little less than 4 months it might happen at the end of summer -- especially if the debt ceiling doesn't get raised.

  • Trump said. “I’d like to include them in the group of people to get them out of the country. But you’ll have to be looking at the laws.”

    🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

    🤨

  • because some people will have to pick up where Social Security left and care for them and, in doing so, will become even more desperate. Who will risk their job fighting for their rights knowing that not only their own livelihood, but also that of their old mother or their disabled brother is on the line?

    This is true for those who have support locally. I don't have anyone I can rely on locally right now if this starts happening to the DML. There is no other safety net for me. The safety net I do have was already riddled with holes and partially on fire BEFORE Jan 20th.

    Also, this hasn't even started happening and already people are struggling paycheck to paycheck and won't risk it by protesting -- at least not to the point where we can get sustainable numbers over weeks in all 50 states.

  • And there it is. Combine this "accident" with the Death Master List and you have a recipe for "accidentally" ruining people's lives who are retired or disabled. We know how this administration handles mistakes now as well.

    What does a person who is declared dead but indeed still alive do when this happens and they lose income, housing, and medical insurance? Asking for a very terrified friend.....

  • Oh this just keeps getting more and more fun every day as someone who is on SSDI, Medicaid/Medicare, and HUD housing. Cut my SSDI and I lose access to everything. I mean it's "illegals" now, the rest of us "parasites" next?

  • I wonder if it would help if I taped a bag with my name on it under the seat on each bus I could conceivably take to different grocery stores? But then I'd have to remember to take the bag out from under the seat 😆

    But seriously, I do have a bag in my backpack, but I'm not always wearing my backpack 🤦🏻

  • I am in NY state and this happened here, not sure where Lyra is though.

    Paper bags are $0.05 each Reusable bags vary by store, size, and design but are usually $1 - $2 depending on the bag design and size Thermal reusable bags vary from a few $$ to $10 depending on size

    For a while Walmart didn't have any paper bags or reusable bags, that was fun.

  • Ok this makes complete sense now, thank you!

  • Trump: We are not touching Medicaid or Social Security

    Goes on to destroy whole sections of said agencies rendering them mostly useless for those of us that need them (like me).

    🤨

  • Transgender people have that exact problem right now, even with passports. They effectively cannot prove they are a citizen even with a birth certificate because of Trump's executive orders.

    I only have an enhanced NY state driver's license. I don't have Real ID or even a passport. While I'm male and identify as male, I don't have my birth certificate. If they require something like Real ID, passport, or birth certificate the likelihood of me voting pretty much becomes nil. I don't drive, rely on public transportation, and would have to go to a county office and hope I can give them the right information to get a copy of my birth certificate.

  • That's good to hear, because back then that wasn't the case. I know no matter what model iPhone I get, if it's new then support is the same for every model from that year.

  • Have you seen how old most bikers in the US are? The stigma that most bikers are in a gang is stupid but there are SOME bikers who are seniors and who are in something like Hell's Angels.

    Also, I've seen TV shows where they depict the grandmother as a sweet innocent lady who was actually the drug runner for the gang. It's plausible.

    That being said, there needs to be....I don't know....actual evidence that she's a part of said gang to justify this insanity.
