I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business. WE Pay for

The American gestapo abducted an 85 year-old widow. Was she one of the worst of the worst? No, her step-son, a retired Alabama state trooper, got ICE to put her in a detention center to deport her because he wanted all of his father's inheritance. Sounds like the son is the worst of the worst.

Eight major banks walked away from private prison companies in 2019. Citizens Bank didn't. @CitizensBank continues to back GEO Group & CoreCivic, which runs the Dilley, TX ICE prison holding children. Take action: de-icecitizensbank.org #CitizensBank #CitizensHelpingCitizens #MadeReady #CitizensOfNY

I feel sad and exhausted. But I like this image. #hipstamatic

Still water reflecting bare trees in the distance. There are some buildings behind the trees, but they are hard to see. The colors are green and taupe.

If our democracy falls, its epitaph won’t be fate, but failure. We chose ignorance over intellect, resentment over reason, cruelty over compassion. We had the capacity for empathy and turned away. In the end, it was not war, but the poverty of our collective spirit that destroyed us.

Has anyone done virtual challenges? I’m currently doing the five series Lord of the Rings virtual Conqueror Challenge. I just finished my second.

Certificate with image of Rivendell from the Lord of the Rings films, with text Sunny Owen Finisher and The Fellowship Virtual Challenge. It also has dates and total distance (98 miles). There is a small picture of a woman with sunglasses in the corner.

I’ve been gone a while but I think I’m gonna start posting some photos again (now that I’ve started making them again). I was too depressed and $&@!* last year to do much besides stare in horror at it all. I’m a bit more functional now. (Just a bit!) This is today’s favorite. Hipstamatic

Obama: "We are living in a time where it can be hard to hope. Each day we wake up to some new assault on our democratic institutions. Another setback to the idea of the rule of law ... but this man - Rev. Jesse Jackson - inspires us to take a harder path ... bc if we don't step up, nobody else will"

ICE won't talk to the people who live in Roxbury, NJ because they know that nobody wants a detention center in their backyard. I spoke with the community there and it's crystal clear: nobody wants this.

Small businesses did as asked, paying their pandemic workers with the promise of a tax credit. Congress: DO YOUR PART. If the ERC tax credit is repealed, it will be one of the largest tax hikes on small businesses ever! #SaveSmallBusinesses

One of the things about putting tariffs on films is that it allows CBP to start enforcing film distribution in the US. HSI could then shut down independent distributors flouting the tariffs. Basically, ICE and CBP could literally shut down film screenings in an end run around the 1st amendment.

I’m been saying this is all a war of imagination and perception. He’s going after the narrative. You control imagination and you don’t even have to try anymore. That’s what this push to insert AI in creative spaces is about, too. White supremacy and American imperialism is at work. on.ft.com/4jXhppq
