Anne Frank died of Typhoid fever. These crowding conditions will kill many. And we have known this and know this, still this proceeds on.
In a report out Friday, the Homeland Security inspector general has found “dangerous overcrowding” and unsanitary conditions at a Customs and Border Protection facility in El Paso, Texas, where hundreds more migrants were being housed than the center was designed to hold.
“Border Patrol agents told us some of the detainees had been held in standing-room-only conditions for days or weeks,” the office of inspector general wrote.

Podcasts and mental health (worth reading)
Not a professional, just a person.
I love podcasts. Anything from a daily gardening tip podcast (Epic Gardening: daily tips and advice) to The Adventure Zone (a amazing storyline, go listen to it).
They help ease a confused mind. I overthink to the point where it feels like I'm glitching. My mind has to load.
Having a voice or voices to focus on can help unknot the tangle of your mind into a nice straight thread.
I highly recommend finding a podcast to listen to, during the day, night, morning, whenever.
Finding a podcast could help your mental health.
Some of my favorites:
The Adventure Zone. (DnD, even if you don't like dnd, you'll love it, please look it up. I listen to it daily. Going to a Con as a character from it.)
Welcome to Nightvale. (Hilarious and strange town of weird things, go look it up, now.)
Epic Gardening: Daily Tips and Advice. (Small little tips and facts that could help gardening big and small.)
Physics World Stories. (Cool physics developments.)
The Infinite Monkey Cage. (A physicist and a comedian walk into a bar.)
Sawbones. (Funny guy and doctor wife talk about weird medical instances, pretty family friendly)

So, you wanna wear your cool pants with your cool shoes.
Your pants have a super cool print and you wanna wear em with some bitchin boots, but the problem is, even though they fit fine, they do this with the boots:

So you’re like, okay, cool, I’ll just cuff them, but then you realize you can’t because they look like this on the inside:

So now you’re like aw man what do I do?? I want the cuff to match the pants but they won’t :(
Step 1! Fold the hem up about to here, make sure the fold is crisp and clean all the way around:

Step 2! Fold the white part up again so it’s the same width as the original hem, keeping it crispy:

Step 3! Fold that original hem down and over, and you guessed it, crispy again:

You have now created a cuff that matches the rest of your pants! Now go, wear your stompy boots with funky pants and be gay

Kravitz: Well, you got away with it this time, Taako, but, uh, I’ll be seeing you again.
Taako: Where?
Kravitz: Huh?
Taako: Where will you be seeing me again?
Kravitz: Like, in general. I’ll see you like the next time you do something bad, I’ll be there…
Taako: Oh.
Kravitz: ...to catch you.
Taako: You’ll be watching and...
Kravitz: Yeah.
Taako: I thought you were inviting me somewhere.

fun studying tip: if you’re a procrastinator, play tom jones’s “what’s new pussycat” on repeat while writing your papers and do not turn it off until you are finished, it will motivate you to finish that essay as quickly as possible
