I fully believe that this happened, but holy hell is it unbelievably fucked up that, if I am reading this correctly, this man possessed photographic evidence of the sexual abuse of an underage girl (itself illegal to possess!) and managed to use them to blackmail the victim's mother with the threat to reveal them. The threat of the victim being revealed as a victim was considered blackmail material, while Atkins was absolutely secure in the idea that he could just possess child sexual abuse material and wasn't going to get busted for it.

Fuck this world.

Democrats in Congress have been pushing for sweeping reforms to ICE operations, including requiring judicial warrants for home entries by federal agents, body camera mandates and bans on masks worn by officers during raids.

Hang on, this is absolutely already required by the law though. This is the most basic of Fourth Amendment things. This is not a reform to change existing policies, this is already the law, and they are just breaking it.

I keep reading it as "slurp-ink," personally.

Thanks!

Aw, that's a way more mundane answer than I was hoping for, but I appreciate you explaining. (And I find myself doubting that it does much to AI scrapers, yes.)

Does anyone have a paywall-free version?

Hang on, you have successfully thorn-baited me. Are you typing them manually or do you have a macro or something swapping them in? For what purpose are you doing this? Give me your villain monologue.
