Doesn’t matter if you let them in. Nothing stopping them from setting your house on fire and making you come out.

He was from Cuba, his father was in Cuba, his uncle was in the USA and wanted to keep him here. He needed to be returned to his father but it should’ve been via negotiation. The raid was not the way to go. IIRC Janet Reno just got impatient with diplomacy?

Oh I like twisty ties! Because I just wrap it once around the bag, then I get to spin the bread like a nunchuck to twist it all up

- Comment on doctors 1 week ago:
This is a recent problem. Do we think those purported fat genes just evolved in society over the past eightyish years, and spread so widely that, per the 2017-2018 NHANES data, 73% of American adults are overweight (30.7%) or obese (42.4%)? On a population level it’s clear this cannot be genetic. There’s been a cultural shift that has caused this problem, often thought to be related to processed food, less time to cook, and for some underserved communities, food deserts.
Look at how dramatically obesity has risen since the '80s:
- Comment on doctors 1 week ago:
I think their point is that doctors don’t want their patients to become entrapped by obesity into lifelong poor health, which also traps them as sources of revenue for corporations that profit from sickness and fat: pharma, companies that sell fad diet and/or exercise plans, etc. So if your doctor tells you to lose weight, it’s probably coming from a good place, regardless of what else might be going on with your health.
(And just in anticipation of some replies I might get: yes, it’s absolutely a real and shitty thing when doctors only see the fat and assume it’s the cause of all the patient’s problems. You deserve better healthcare than that. But also recognize that while the fat might not be the cause of a given problem, it might be exacerbating that problem.)

- Comment on What are some of the most cringeworthy scenes or moments in TV that you've seen? 3 weeks ago:
It seems like every episode of Discovery must contain:
- A red alert
- A fistfight or space battle
- Egregious unnecessary special effects
- A tear-filled conversation, often at a very inappropriate time
- A character saying “When I was younger” to start a stupid overwrought reason why the current mission has personal meaning for them due to some deep trauma or insecurity
- Somebody saying how important it is to “connect” with others
- Some race against the clock that would not be needed if the characters would quit crying to each other and act like goddamn professionals
- Cringeworthy unprofessional levels of awkwardness
I’m speed-hatewatching my way through it, on season 5 right now and I can’t wait until this stupid shit is over.
