I feel like the DHS read Doctorow’s “Little Brother” and said, “yeah, we ARE the baddies.”

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment "I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to assess the victim. At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

I was taught that the passive voice was a no-no in HIGH SCHOOL newspaper. “An ICE agent shot a protestor dead today during a struggle with federal agents in Minneapolis.” FTFY, @nytimes.com

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

I remember gawking over the sample new @mbta.com Red Line car at Government Center in 2018. 7 years and a move out of Boston later, I FINALLY got to ride one yesterday and it was AMAZING 🤩 Definitely top ten experiences of the year.

Hey, so, just thinking: - USAID was heavily involved in South Africa and helped black S. Africans overcome decades of violent oppression under apartheid - Afrikaners and others violently subjugated blacks in S. Africa until 1994 - Elon Musk is S. African Yeah, you’re right; just a coincidence.

Honest question: at what point is a judge going to say “the US government cannot be trusted to respect the rights of those in its custody” and halt ALL deportations until they are validated by a judge? Is that even a possibility? It’s not perfect, but it might be better.

Shopping for EVs in the US is infuriating. It’s a process of finding a super cool option that’s not huge and is significantly cheaper than other options and then finding out they don’t sell it here.

We decided to watch “School of Rock” last night because it has “Minecraft Steve in it” (I know…It is what it is) and I decided to google a bit and, yall, the little singer girl just got married to the big security guard boy /in real life/. She’s a OBGYN sonographer and he’s a music industry lawyer.

Someone once said NextDoor is the social network for dogs if they could type. It’s always “what’s that noise?” and “who’s that stranger?” which is exactly what I imagine my dogs would text other neighborhood dogs.

The biggest thing we need to do is let people know that the protests are FUN. Yelling fuck the man is fun. You will meet fun people. We also need to make them more fun. Bring grills like the French. Bring instruments like it’s Mardi Gras. Give people a reason to spend their weekend in the streets.

Whirlpool was one of the big beneficiaries during Trump 1.0 when the company lobbied the administration for tariffs on imported washing machines. And a study found that Whirlpool raised its prices even though they were avoiding tariffs — simply because they could. www.nytimes.com/2019/04/21/b...

Trump’s Washing Machine Tariffs Stung Consumers While Lifting Corporate Profits (Published 2019)

New research shows how a move meant to aid domestic manufacturers instead padded profits and raised prices on a wide variety of laundry items.
