In the run-up to June 11, three main things happened. First, the Petitioner’s counsel emailed the Respondents several times. Confirming that the Petitioner “need[ed] to depart by June 11.” Petition, Exhibit D (“Exhibit D”) (ECF 1-2) at 19. Asking to “coordinate his departure.” Id. at 20. And “requesting that [the Petitioner] be allowed to travel on June 10th” in order to comply with his voluntary departure order. Id. at 23; see also id. at 23, 25 (requesting clarification on “how [to] proceed with assuring that [the Petitioner] is able to follow the judge’s order”). Second, the Petitioner bought a one-way plane ticket from New York to Colombia, set to depart on June 10th. See id. at 26-27. And third, “ICE did not permit [the] Petitioner to depart on or before June 11.” Expedited Answer to § 2241 Petition (“Respondents’ Answer”) (ECF 6) at 3; see Joint Statement (ECF 11) at 2. Instead, the Petitioner was kept in custody, and the voluntary departure deadline came and went. Because the Petitioner “failed to depart” by June 11, the Respondents argue that “he is now subject to a final order of removal” --- which means that he must be detained on a mandatory basis under 8 U.S.C. § 1231, and, perhaps, that certain “statutory penalties” can now be imposed on him. See Respondents’ Answer at 3-5.
Friday, though the core of the smoke plume may shift a bit farther south. Young children, those that are young at heart, and people suffering from respiratory ailments are especially susceptible to these conditions and should limit outdoor exposure.
Ad for a tall, narrow metal cabinet with reversible door on the top and bottom; across the bottom are icons: “coffee maker” labeling what might be a toaster, “microwave” for a hairdryer, “toaster” for a sewing machine, “glasswarewine” (all one word) for a bottle of win and glass, “glasswarewine” again for a fork and knife, and “flavouring” showing two drinking glasses.

“Report An Accessibility Problem” form with a textarea preceded by the visible label “Please describe your accessibility problem”, which dev tools shows is not associated with the field, and then a text field with the label “Please enter your email”, and which is also not associated with the field (though the field has placeholder text).

Looking head-on at a pink rowboat in ice-strewn waters, where four faceless orange and glitter men are perched, all wearing Speedos and 1776-era long coats and tri-corner hats, excepting the lead figure in a white wig and standing with one finger raised in the air; the boat has a modern American flag set against a sky of pinks and blues; the frame of the painting is lavender knitted yarn. Bonus info: the painting is a play on “Washington Crossing the Delaware,” an 1851 oil-on-canvas painting by Emanuel Leutze.

Chalmers pointing at Skinner’s glowing closed kitchen door, asking “What happened between you and Iran?” Skinner answers, “We signed a deal to win the war we started.” Chalmers responds, “So you got regime change? And destroyed its nuclear efforts? And restored unlimited access to the strait? And got Iran's proxies to quit? And destroyed its military including all ballistic missiles without opening access to $300 billion?” Skinner responds calmly, “Yes.” Chalmers asks, “And the MoU says all that?” Skinner says matter of factly, “No.”
I am excited about ariaNotify(), y’know, in a measured, cautious way. It finally gives us a way to address a use case that has plagued the web — and me, personally — for years, in a shockingly easy way. So easy, in fact, that it makes ariaNotify() just a little bit dangerous. I mean, not for us though, right? Because we’re all gonna be cool about this, right? Right.
Chalmers pointing at Skinner’s glowing closed kitchen door, asking “What did you just do in Minnesota?” Skinner answers, “We charged 15 new people.” Chalmers responds, “So no false affidavits this time? And officers were injured? And these were coordinated? And were clearly "attacks"? And Antifa is the organization driving all of this along with anonymous donors?” Skinner responds calmly, “Yes.” Chalmers asks, “You'll show us evidence?” Skinner says matter of factly, “No.”

Venn diagram with three circles. 1, Accessibility: The work needed to make things accessible to humans in assorted contexts. 2, SEO: The work needed to get your sites into search engines and maybe even ranked well. 3, AEO/GEO: The work to get your IP stolen by LLMs as they DDoS your site, so it can be later incorrectly regurgitated. Overlap with Accessibility and SEO: With bonus per­for­ma­tive use of the term “a11y.” Overlap of SEO and AEO/GEO: This is someone tricking you into speed-running having your IP stolen. There is no overlap of Accessibility and AEO/GEO nor all three.
