BREAKING— In a 9-0 decision, The Supreme Court says the Trump administration must facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia; A Maryland man mistakenly deported to El Salvador.
The fact that it took a Supreme Court ruling is absolutely astonishing. It was so astonishing that it rendered a 9-0 ruling. Every justice agreed on this.
The Trump administration noted in court that he was deported by mistake due to an administrative error yet they still refused to schedule his return.
They accused Garcia of being a member of MS-13 which his family denies. He was falsely accused by an informant looking to lessen their prison sentence.
Garcia fled El Salvador in 2011 due to gang violence and was allowed to remain in the United States under a court order as long as he made regular check ins with Immigration and Customs Enforcement
Garcia has no criminal record and is married to a US citizen which they have a 5 year old disabled child together.
Some of y'all gotta uncouple your personal self worth from your thought patterns. Me saying something is a reactionary thought pattern and urging you to examine it is not me personally calling you a fascist lmao. Everyone has thought patterns and some of them are going to be reactionary since yknow. We live in a society etc etc
Yeah like. that’s not the same thing. we don’t do thought crimes here. All it means is, if it hadn’t occurred to you that these patterns might be reactionary or sexist or what have you, it’s an opportunity to analyze that and see things from a new perspective
This is low-key another reason why callout culture sucks cause without the ability to learn from your mistakes there’s much more incentive to deny them. It’s okay to fuck up and need to reassess stuff. I’m not a fucking cop. I’m not gonna sit here and condemn you to the dungeon because you said something stupid.
Why was I today years old when I learned that lead compounds taste SWEET and THAT’S why kids eating paint chips back in the day was a concern?
people these days, it’s always “stop eating lead” and “lead is poisonous” and never “was the lead yummy?” or “you looked really cool eating those tasty lead chips” smh
the Romans had lead pipes for two reasons: one, lead is soft and it’s easily worked into pipes; two, it makes your water delicious and slightly sweet
Some places with really shitty old plumbing, lead paint, and other lead heavy things (you know, places that poor people and BIPOC live) sometimes a bunch of it gets into the snow melt around the community in winter. A lot of kids in places like that know where it collects and go find it because it’s sweet ice that tastes a little bit like sour patch kids.
I’ve lived in more than one place like that and I’ve talked to other people who have as well and it’s a pretty common experience from what I can tell. Lead is still an issue TODAY. In communities of color and poor rural areas especially.
But, can confirm. Tastes good. And warn kids about WHY eating anything they find outdoors is dangerous. Some kids genuinely can’t follow directions without details.

TUMBLR STORY TIME.
I volunteer for my local shelter and when the weather’s good, we do a free vaccine clinic every Friday. Free distemper, free rabies, cats and dogs. We hand out free food from the pet pantry, we give people leashes and collars, we do whatever we can to keep people’s animals at home and healthy. Every animal that can stay home and be fed and be vaccinated is an animal that we can keep out of the shelter.
We get all kinds of folks, sometimes we even get backyard breeders but we don’t do any judgment, because we want people to come and get their dogs vaccinated, because one parvo case costs $7000+ and the whole year of Parvo vaccines for hundreds of dogs costs less. It’s just harm reduction, everything we do is harm reduction.
So anyway, this one day this woman comes up to the vax clinic and she is high as fuckin’ hell, just obliterated fucked up, smoking a joint in line, and she has this TINY pibble puppy with her, maaaaybe four weeks old. This thing is so fuckin tiny and wormy and lethargic, and she’s like, “Hey I heard I can get her shots.” and we’re like, oh fuck this puppy is gonna die. Like straight up, we were all like, fuck that dog is gonna die. So we gave her wormer, we gave the first distemper shot, and I put together a whole care package: wormer to take home, puppy milk replacer, puppy wet food, a leash, a harness, some blankets, toys, we gave her instructions on how to get the puppy eating food, and we told her to come back in 3 weeks for the follow up vaccine. And we were all like, well fuck, that puppy’s gonna die, goddamnit, that’s so fucked up. But you know, we did our best, and we hoped we’d see her again.
And in three weeks, you guys, she showed up. And she was still high, but like, half-high this time. Smoking a cigartte in line but like, could focus, could ask and answer questions. And she’d taught that tiny puppy how to SIT and had her walking on a leash. We found out that it took her three buses to get to the clinic, and she told us all about how she got the puppy eating right, got her stool solid, she was taking her on walks… The puppy looked so good, you guys. I almost cried, it was so big. Really happy puppy. At the end of the visit, we were like, ok, see you in three more weeks for the next distemper.
So three weeks later, she shows up, and she’s sober, and she told us, “You know, I was really fucked up the day I bought that puppy, I wasn’t sure I was going to live, and I bought that puppy and she was too young, and I didn’t know what I was doing but y'all were so nice to me, and you helped me so much, and I knew that I had to give this puppy the best life I could, so I moved back in with my grandma, and I’m getting clean, and I’m on methadone, and I’m going to rehab next week, and when I get back, I’ll come back and visit you guys again.”
So I just wanna say. Sometimes it’s hard to find a reason to get clean for yourself. Sometimes you gotta do it for a little critter that depends on you.
