This is a very good story about what 287(g) enforcement looks like on the ground, and the prong of Trump-era immigration enforcement that doesn’t look like ICE agents doing raids on the streets of Minneapolis or Chicago.

Early this year, I visited Ingram, a TX town of ~1,900, to check out a tip. The area was starting to recover from its worst flood in a century. But as Latino workers drove to jobsites to help rebuild, the tipster said, a cop in a black Dodge Charger kept stopping them ... 🧵

Starting a nonprofit… naturally our first priority will be fundraising to erect a glistening Center with lots of lofty ceilings, glass, natural wood finishes.

We will be open to the public for seasonal holiday light events like Halloween and Christmas with the purchase of a ticket. And we will be open for business as an Event Space for your next conference or wedding! None of this will distract from our Mission, of course.

Just ahead of Feather Trail's demo launch (next month!!) I've got the "lifer encounter" minigame inferring its background from the top-down view, reprojecting and scaling the tiles and 2D scenery. It's a little jank but this is all for blurry background content so I'll take it #GodotEngine #gamedev

The public demo of Feather Trail will be going live on Steam for this event! Very excited to share what I've been cooking with all of you, especially folks who've watched this grow from a janky prototype years ago. #gamedev #birds

I'm under no illusions about how things are or what the trajectory is. But I'm also excited for the future because that is where I will hang out with the people I care about and do the things I like doing, or haven't done before. Weird but telling that this holds less appeal for much richer people.
