More likely someone he didn't like came from Norfolk VA or Norfolk MA or Norfolk NE, or Norfolk in England or Canada, and Trump's team doesn't know the difference.

No, I'm on Fastmail. It's full-featured and has a slick web UI, but it's not as good for privacy as Tuta, Proton, etc. Also, although Fastmail is Australian they apparently host their servers in the USA.

My email provider will auto-generate aliases with no limit, and I also subscribe to Mozilla Firefox Relay, which allows me to invent email addresses on the fly and have them relay emails to my inbox. The advantage of the Firefox Relay is that it isn't tied to the email provider so if I switch provider the aliases can still work.

Florida will sink either way.

A leaked memo from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Research Service division revealed Sunday that the agency has banned some key language from its vocabulary, including the words “climate” and “vulnerable,” as well as the phrase “safe drinking water.”

Other baffling entries on the memo’s banned language list are “greenhouse gas emissions,” “methane emissions,” “sustainable construction,” “solar energy,” and “geothermal,” as well as “nuclear energy,” “diesel,” “affordable housing,” “prefabricated housing,” “runoff,” “microplastics,” “water pollution,” “soil pollution,” “groundwater pollution,” “sediment remediation,” “water collection,” “water treatment,” “rural water,” and “clean water,” among dozens of others.

So they're not allowed to talk about reality, or how to make anything better. And the fascists in charge must know this is what they're doing, but they don't care.

I keep thinking of how the Buddha recognized three poisons of the mind: greed, hatred and ignorance. Right-wing politics is pure poison.

ICE are not taking any care about what the tattoos are. There was a story of someone being sent to prison in El Salvador because they had an autism awareness tattoo, which looked a bit pride-y because it was rainbow colored. If they don't like the look of you they'll find an excuse. Nazis are like that.

Meanwhile the utterly incompetent Secretary of Defense has white nationalist tattoos all over him and that's just fine with them.

It's real Nazi science, this identification of criminals by skin colour, tattoos, and gestures. Perhaps they should study head shape too. Anyway, trigger their Nazi spidey sense and you'll be kidnapped and trafficked into permanent imprisonment and slavery in a foreign country where you have no legal rights. And half the US population will cheer.

Kids in the 1960s were the same, and the USA still sent them off to get killed, maimed, and traumatized for the rest of their lives.

Most people know what it means, I think. Still, no shame in not knowing.

I'm not the person you were asking, but:

Cash back credit cards reward you by refunding a percentage of your purchases made using the card. You can use this refund as a credit towards your monthly balance or as cash deposited into your bank account. Some cards offer a flat percentage on all purchases, while others offer higher percentages on select categories.

Of course, they wouldn't be doing this if you weren't paying them at least the refunded amount somewhere else - through fees, or through people's average interest payments, or through price increases applied by the stores to cover the fees they pay to the credit card companies.

And when the police arrived they started questioning him about whether he agreed with Trump on deportations and Gaza. The police questioning people on their political views seems to be becoming standard in the USA.

“Why are they saying you pushed a priest?”

“They were trying to pull me away from the pulpit. I grabbed the pulpit and just held on. I didn’t push anyone. They had four guys grabbing me and dragging me off there.”

“What made you want to preach today?” “I’m worried about human beings, our brothers and sisters who live within our midst and are being targeted by the government.”

“What do you consider to be targeted by the government? What class of people are you …”

“Undocumented immigrants.”

“So you don’t agree with deportations and things like that?”

“Uh-huh.”

“Did you say anything like that?”

“I didn’t even get there.”

Looking at a copy of Gillcrist’s prepared remarks, the officer said, “So I see you mention Gaza and Ukraine in here. What’s your message with that?”

“They’re our brothers and sisters. When we stop seeing people that way it’s so easy to start making laws or enacting policies that harm them.”

Yes, Interac debit is an alternative in many situations, and that's a Canadian company.
