But that means Pac-Man is eating the burritos edge-on which is clearly insane, since he eata them in one chomp.. You might be onto something, but i don't think burrito is the answer.

Also, if ICE was only going after the "real" criminals, what the fuck do we need ICE for? We've already got a stupidly-overfunded law enforcement and prison apparatus.

The fact that we need a separate agency to go after immigrants pretty much admits that the intent is to go after non-criminals.

Regardless of the assumption of how many people are nefarious or how actually effective TSA is, your point stands.

If they screen normally 99% of the time, then the occasional relaxing of the checks just means that the effectiveness has gone from X to 0.99*X.

TSA is security theater, but this isn't the evidence of that.

Tragically, the funding was cut in ~~Trump's~~ Schumer's Big Beautiful Bill.

They are concerned, but not concerned enough to risk losing reelection by going on record as being concerned.

I'm playing that game right now, but I think I need to turn up the music volume. I've heard the doom-style music ramp up during fights, but I haven't paid it much attention.

Same, except it's the Doom 2016 OST for me.

Type and compute until it's done!

What's the phase where the popcorn is gone, so you drag your finger through the salt/butter residue, then lick it off like an animal?

I agree, but at the same time, I wouldn't give up having the contrast between seasons for anything. You need that 92 degrees with 80% humidity to really appreciate the cool down after a thunderstorm. And my absolute favorite time of year is that first chilly week in September that let's you know the heat is behind you--but the frigid cold is on the way.

All things in balance and moderation...
