I learned French when I was 16 (through immersion) and so to this day words that I learned through reading I end up pronouncing as if they were French. The brain is weird.
macabre = “muh-KAHB” Worcestershire = “WOOSS-ter-sheer” omnipotent = “ahm-NI-puh-tunt” reticent = “RET-uh-sunt” epitome = “ih-PIT-uh-mee” myriad = "MEER-ee-ud" Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word. It means they learned it by reading.

Two married professors and their son are being held in ICE detention, despite being legal permanent residents and having no criminal records. All, apparently, because their mom/MIL was a translator for the Iranian hostage takers in 1979, before they were even born. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Here's a new one: ICE *prevented* a man from self-deporting by a June 11 deadline — he asked ICE to let him leave and had a one-way plane ticket for June 10. Then ICE re-detained him because he missed the deadline. Due process violation, judge rules. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump: “I will soon be reviewing the plan that Iran has just sent to us, but can’t imagine that it would be acceptable in that they have not yet paid a big enough price for what they have done to Humanity, and the World, over the last 47 years. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”

ICE was stealing equipment from the Islip Long Island fire department and a Islip Forward member documented it. ICE tried to arrest the community member but the firemen said “I don’t think so” www.islipforward.org

Trump could not be more explicit about his intention to rig elections this year and in 2028
Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"

I realize that there are so many things about this but I’m tired of the “they’re paid protesters” line because this isn’t about crowd sizes. This is about 1st, 4th,civil, and human rights and no one loses those because they are “paid”.
Trump: "In MN, the Troublemakers, Agitators, & Insurrectionists are, in many cases, highly paid professionals. The Governor & Mayor don’t know what to do, have totally lost control, & our currently being rendered, USELESS! If, & when, I am forced to act, it will be solved, QUICKLY and EFFECTIVELY!"

The paid protesters argument is, while still stupid, about crowd sizes where numbers matter. To apply the paid protesters argument to violations of the First and Fourth amendments, civil rights, and human rights, is to say that if we are being paid to do something, we lose our rights.
"You're seeing a lot of paid protesters" -- Rep. Mike Haridopolos's attempt to defend ICE's tactics in Minneapolis during a CNN panel discussion this morning did not go well. Bad used car salesman vibes.
Regular reminder that no member country pays into NATO. It is a requirement to spend 5% of GDP (new target) on defense spending (aka their own military). So is Fine suggesting we will cut our defense budget here?
NEWSMAX: If we take Greenland, can we get out of NATO and stop paying $50 billion a year? REP. RANDY FINE: NATO needs the US a lot more than the US needs NATO. Greenland should be part of the United States.

NOAA cut funding to the Alaska Earthquake Center, directed by my friend Mike West. As a result, seismic monitoring by nine stations in Alaska tracking tsunami-causing earthquakes will go offline by the end of the month. This endangers people in Alaska, Hawaiʻi, and other parts of the Pacific.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc
