It's actually crazy how many "legal" "well-to-do" immigrants I know who hate "illegal" immigrants. It's nuts.

 

A friend and my wife, both immigrants, looked at me and said: "do it legal". I explained asylum seeking IS legal, and they didn't know what to say other than: "yeah, but others are illegal". I explained that for many they are coming illegally because they are running from gang or drug violence, etc. They again didn't know what to say, but doubted that was the case with most illegal immigrants, like I'd lie about it. 

 

These are otherwise very liberal and progressive people. Fucking bizarre. My parents, also immigrants, are the same way. They should all be mandated to go to the border and deal with real illegal immigrants. See if their hearts soften or harden. I promise a good person's will soften. 

From what I can tell it's basically a bunch of people who've been hazed, who now refuse to let other people avoid being hazed in the same way, because they think it'll retroactively mean they went through the hazing for nothing. And the only other people who care to scream about it as loudly as they do are white people who live in places without any immigrants.

Need recommendations for pizza in Chicago. We're less than 3 weeks away!

Locals took me to Lou Malnati's Pizzeria the last time I was in Chicago. It's a local chain.

Its so weird when people take modern concepts and just assume thats how it worked back then as well.

Our current concept of "illegal immigration" is less than a hundred years ago.

It's true that asbestos is amazing at what it does, and if properly contained. The issue is that it's never properly contained because people are idiots, so it had to be banned. It's like how guns will never kill anyone if properly used by sane people...except for all of the idiots that own them.

That's not a very nice way to talk about @mclumber1.

Trump, however, has previously voiced his support for asbestos, calling it “100% safe, once applied”, in his 1997 book The Art of the Comeback. In the same tome, Trump wrote: “I believe that the movement against asbestos was led by the mob, because it was often mob-related companies that would do the asbestos removal.”

As always, it's worth pointing out that basically all chain pizza is fine, and y'all need to temper the hyperbole when talking about food that is served in a cardboard box.

Also don't Airpods already exist?

My work laptop is due for a replacement in September, I hope the timing here is sufficient to let me get one of these new ones without having to wait a huge amount of time for work IT to actually stock them, especially if this processor upgrade finally sees 32 GB of RAM come along for the ride. If they're gonna fix the keyboard issues with these that would be a nice bonus too.
