I find that if IMDB is 6.5-7.5 it’s probably okay to take a chance. The lower to 6 it’s a toss up as to whether it matches personal preferences.

pale_tony@sh.itjust.worksto politics @lemmy.world•FBI arrests judge in escalation of Trump immigration enforcement effort22·4 months agoThe stance is correct. ICE as an agency is a threat to our democracy. Debating the nuance doesn’t help with the point that ICE is able to internally determine who needs to go. With the state of the immigration system and threat to due process people should be standing up to what they believe is wrong. Personally, I think what the judge did was right when the man was there on a pretrial hearing for a seperate criminal matter.
As to the case, a previous 2011 directive for ICE to avoid arrests in or near courthouses was rolled back by Trump. That’s the same one that included sensitive areas such as schools. So now, under executive direction, they can enter public spaces such as courthouses to effect arrests. This has the chilling effect of having persons accused of crimes in local communities avoid court dates and further erodes due process.
Alltogether, ICE wasn’t wrong here procedurally and by the the letter of the law. However morally it’s all sideways. We don’t know if that man would have been transported to another state detention center, given access to a lawyer or even allowed to contact his family. Seeing how the admin has operated, he likely would never have gotten a court date to even review his immigration case.
If you interfere with ICE you can face criminal charges. That’s what they’re pinning on this judge.
So the system by design is f-d up. Notice how on a federal level no officials or anyone else has been arrested for violating due process rights of individuals in those high profile deportation cases? It’s a crazy double standard and the administration will likely pump this case up to show that they have all the power–including (albeit here with a local judge) over the judiciary.
Again, ICE is wrong and what the government is doing to immigrants is wrong. It’s a broad threat to our rights and they’re just getting bolder by the day. Operating legally does not mean you are operating morally.
Same here on Firefox Android.
pale_tony@sh.itjust.worksto childfree@lemmy.world•My experience and learning about my childfree decision over 35 years4·2 years agoI’m glad you met someone who was supportive of your life choices. I do the same for anyone who is on the fence. It’s an extremely personal choice and no one should be lauded or derided for either decision.
I have kids. Love ‘‘em to death. But, damn, not everyone needs to be a parent. My wife and I would’ve been fine not having kids. It just turned out to be something we both wanted.
It’s a shame that other parents try and pressure others into a life changing decision. Be you and be happy!
Ahhhh I get it now. Thanks for the explanation.
pale_tony@sh.itjust.worksto News@lemmy.world•A 16-year-old has died at a Mississippi poultry processing plant, county coroner says51·2 years agoMar-Jac Poultry said the teen died from injuries suffered in what it described as an “accident” in an emailed statement to CNN.
“On the evening of Friday, July 14 an employee conducting sanitation operations at Mar-Jac Poultry MS LLC’s Hattiesburg, Mississippi poultry processing plant died as a result of injuries sustained in an accident,” the company said. “We deeply regret the loss and send our most sincere condolences to his family and friends.”
Seems like this child was being employed by this large commercial butchering plant LINK as a sanitation worker. The company, in its own public statement, has only disclosed this as an “accident” hence why no other details have come forward.
Mopping floors at a local grocery store for extra cash, sure. Working at a large scale commercial poultry plant is likely illegal under both Federal and Mississippi labor laws.
I’m not piling on. I just want you to get the sentiment your thoughts have echoed to other users. We don’t want kids working in these environments for summer jobs or otherwise.
This is not a wait and let’s see situation. That child should not have been working at that plant.
I don’t get it. Can you please elaborate?
They are able to be belligerent and put their population at little risk because of the funding the US provides. It goes both ways. The narrative is so baked into our politics that it’s incredibly difficult to divorce from the idea of providing non offensive aide as well.
The Knesset doesn’t magically have broad support for continuing the genocide out of thin air. The US is accountable for all the terror we have wrought too, especially if our “accountable” politicians can vote for things like this and try to spin justification for it.
