Did they time travel? Whoever wrote this mistakenly stated it was Wednesday. It was January 6, Tuesday.

I’ve been interested in the NX-01 jacket, so I decided to order it.

There it is: Rayner, with sexual assaults allegations, directed a $40 million documentary about Melania. So Trump wants him to be able to make Rush Hour 4.

Again, the rapist is helping out his own kind.

They honestly lost me with the fitness platform they were developing with the hardware they tried launching before they got bought by Fitbit.

I’m too baked into my Apple Watch to use a Pebble today. I don’t have any of my old watches. I would not mind a circular Apple Watch. I loved the Pebble Round.

This is a new version of an existing device that FameTek made years ago.

I’m not defending either organization. Just clarifying that the roles they have are different.

Yes, it is an excellent movie. My favorite of all the Hanks movie I have seen.

Unless you are actively traveling from outside the country, you won’t ever be encountering CBP.

This is not ICE. CBP is Customs and Border Protection. They deal directly with the border and other entry points like airports, border crossing and ports. The easiest example of what they do is to point you towards the movie The Terminal. In that movie, Tom Hanks plays an Eastern European, Viktor Navorski (fictional country) who gets denied entry to the U.S. upon arrival when a government coup sees his visa invalidated mid flight. The film depicts head of CBP at JFK airport in New York, in a struggling battle to keep Hank’s character in the international terminal, the only legal area he can occupy after determining that they can’t send him back amid a civil war which the U.S. has yet to recognize a formal government. The conflict directly centered around the recognition of his country’s government. While in mid flight to the U.S. the civil war began and the government was dissolved. Upon landing at JFK, he no longer had valid paperwork to enter the U.S. After determining he could not enter the country legally, it is made frighteningly clear that without a government that the U.S. recognizes, he could not legally be returned home either. The movie depicts Viktor’s struggle to continue his life inside the international thermal of JFK, awaiting the day he can finally leave.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement deal with immigration and customs enforcement. So this organization works inside the borders of the country. They deal with immigration and customs violations, and trafficking and cross-border crimes.

These are not the same organizations and they serve different purposes. Both fall under the authority of the Department of Homeland Security. People are conflating the two organizations since they deal with the legality of being in the United States but they have different methods of operation.

EDIT: CBP try to stop you from entering the country. ICE try to eject you once you have gotten inside.

X-Men are a American Civil Rights allegory.

I haven’t done it myself but I know relatives who attended and they disliked the experience. I recall them saying they arrived at 5am just to get a seat.

Lady asked to be painted like a French poodle?

It can’t be. Neal Degrasse Tyson said the night sky was historically inaccurate for that period. /s

Huh. Didn’t know this. But I’ve never been to a DQ.

Just to be clear, they started off with ice cream and then pivoted to non-ice cream foods they called “fan food”.

According to the FBI’s own website, this might qualify.

It is a disappointment that we aren’t getting more from them. However, maybe it is a good thing for this type of movie.

I have listened to it. No interview with Pattie. I appreciate what Phil has done in this regard.

EDIT: There are only 36 episodes. The last one was his three-part with Garrett Wang (delightful person to meet). I hope that Phil plans to continue this if he can find anyone to speak with in the future. That last episode was April 2024.

Their name is Morn.

Are the sequels worth watching?
