No idea. He entered on an Italian passport (he has dual Italian-Senegalese citizenship, and they referred to him as "Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy" in a press release), so he should have up to 90 days in the US without a problem.

He was on like day 30 of a 90-day visa and was heading to his scheduled flight out of the country. Afaik, they had no reason to pick him up, they just like sitting around in the air conditioning to pick people up at airports and courthouses instead of chasing them across fields or something more exercise-y like that.

Funny how every time there are more people against them than they'd like, suddenly everyone showing up was either "bussed in" or was "paid to be there" - anything to delegitimize the numbers.

You're forgetting the male incel epidemic, including the ones who legitimately want the government to issue them a girlfriend. I'm sure some of them feel that the only reason they didn't have a girlfriend is that "their girlfriend" mistakenly believes she's gay or was "taken" by a lesbian. Similar to that guy who was like "I'm sure the reason I don't have a girlfriend is that the one who was destined to be mine got aborted by some 'liberated' woman".

I opposed childhood gender transitions, unlawful and divisive DEI mandates, and the excesses of Critical Race Theory. I argued against biological males competing in women’s sports and being housed in women’s prisons.

Thus proving a basic misunderstanding of most of these issues. Welcome to the future that you voted for, sucks for all of us.

Those things that project images on walls and things - be nice if we could project images either in front or behind him, less likely to cause issues with the FAA, more likely to get media coverage.

16 states have proposed or passed legislation that would make ivermectin available over the counter. The intention is to make it much easier for people to get ivermectin and use it for any ailment they believe it can cure. Idaho, Arkansas, and Tennessee have passed laws to make ivermectin available over the counter. On Monday, Louisiana's state legislature passed a bill to do the same, and it now awaits signing by the governor. The other states that have considered or are considering such bills include: Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Hampshire, North Carolina, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and West Virginia.

I think the bigger problem is that there are at least 50 trays of tomatoes there and it'll take a bunch of kitchen space and time to process all of them, all of which has to be done on next-to-no notice. It'll also take a lot of time and supplies to can them all - though at least whatever they have the time and space to process will be shelf-stable in the end.

I've tried the foam earplugs from a drugstore/chemist's. They're extremely difficult to put in properly

Take the earplug and roll it between your fingers until it's a smaller size that goes in easily. Take your other hand and grab your earlobe toward the back and bottom. Pull your lobe backward and away from your head; that straightens and opens your ear canal. The combination of these two should make it easy to insert the earplugs.

[If you like, you can play around with putting the tip of your finger at the entrance of your ear canal and then pulling the lobe with your other hand, to feel how it changes the entrance to your ear canal.]

and get dirty after a few uses.

Maybe clean your ears? Also, most of the cheap foam earplugs aren't meant to be a long-term solution, they're definitionally disposable.

I wonder how often they have to restock it?

I'm glad you're saving them :)
