Today is the Day of Remembrance for the Japanese American community. 81 years ago today, when I was just a boy of four, FDR signed Executive Order 9066, setting in motion the evacuation of people of Japanese descent from the West Coast and our long years of internment inside ten barbed wire prison camps.
We must never let such a thing happen again in America, and and we must strive everywhere to prevent the forced relocation and mass incarceration of innocent people. #NeverForget #NeverAgain
I like Disneyland. Somewhat. But I think I'd like this more.

Even after Andrew Tate gets busted, Greta Thunberg is a Masterclass.
I’m not sure that even Elon Musk would go after her now.

@obi I would think that it was on briefly enough for someone to get a screenshot before it was changed back.
Someone updated Andrew Tate's kickboxing record on Wikipedia.
Brilliant.

@ClaraListensprechen@universeodon.com The first clue for me (a while ago) was when I was bumped into C-group because I was rerouted b/c of a cancellation. They took away my carry-on, which would have been ok, except they offered nothing to people volunteering to check their bag, didn't ask if people would be inconvenienced if thy were stuck for 3 hours in Denver without their stuff, and offered nothing in return to people forced to give up their bag and spend another 20 minutes at their destination waiting at baggage claim. They didn't even offer a free drink. It felt lazy on their part.
Now what I went through was nothing compared with what people have had to deal with for flying SW these past few days. It just feels, to me, that the goodwill (and smarts) accumulated during the Herb Kelleher days has been frittered away.
@aleksi *sigh* I miss Usenet.
Scientist. Dad. Neither go the way you expect.
