So glad the US is going through difficult-to-replace missile interceptors (THAAD, Patriot, etc.) on a war of choice instead of having any in case North Korea or China decide to do anything.

"Each of [the] killings by CBP agents and ICE officers boosts a bloodlust connected to the culture of white supremacist violence in the U.S. CBP and ICE, like local policing, provide an opportunity to make a job out of white supremacism. That’s why the Trump administration is openly using far-right white supremacist cultural references to recruit for the agency."

One of the most useless search terms for Mastodon is the `in:library`. Yeah, I get it, everything I've interacted with. But I'd expect to only show stuff I bookmarked. I don't see a way to only search in my bookmarked posts. There are accounts where I favorited a *lot* of the posts but only bookmark one or two. No way to find them anymore :-/
I hope, there'll be more possible values to `in:` in the future, e.g. `favorites`, `bookmarks`, `replies`, `boosts`.

My algorithm (roughly, there are knobs to turn):
- Fetch the last 24h hours or 1000 posts (whatever is fewer posts), including boosts which are handled separately, though.
- Score them by engagement (I don't know better). There are bunch of ways to do that, e.g. geometric mean of boosts, favs, and replies weighted by account size.
- Take the top of that list and prune down further it its too many.
- Add 3 serendipity posts from accounts I don't follow.
