Last night & this morning, the headline isn’t about the top-down decision. It’s about the will of the people of Philadelphia. It’s about what the kids of our city deserve, and the path forward, back to an open public museum. Don’t let people in perceived power dictate the story. The power is ours.

Two articles from the Philly voice and CBS, with headlines “academy
Of natural sciences is closed, but the fight for the museum continues” and “protesters push Drexel
To accept funding to keep the museum at academy
Of natural sciences open”

My vacation anti-rain witchcraft (bringing a rain jacket, a poncho, and an umbrella) worked and for my first day back in Chicago--all rain! I found myself talking a lot about the TARP project on vacation. As climate change is starting to really affect every area, I'm grateful Chicago has TARP.

Eddie Johnson saying he never saw any police misconduct and Larry Snelling never having to publicly explain sending a teen to hospital were huge, ignored warning signs.

Have candidates describe how much and what kinds of police misconduct they have observed during their career, if/how they addressed it, if they would choose differently today, and what a Supt should do to address it. +

i maintain my position that the only real goals here are about making money for already very rich people and devaluing labor and that should give everyone pause, as well

I don't really need to learn the details of the rationalists or the neo reactionaries or the EA folks after you tell me their misogynists, racists, and eugenists.

Dealing with this incident has taken 5+ years, and probably won't conclude this year. We're looking for a new superintendent and I want one holding their officers to the actual written standards instead of giving them a pass on firing at fleeing people.

Do any of you donate to political candidates? I give ~ 10% of what I give to charities to politics because they can play such a big role in the good of our neighbors.

Lake forever, problems for now

Sunrise over the lake from Randolph and Michigan. The sun is blowing out the shot, but is still kissing the horizon. The park is dark in contrast and we can see a break water wall and a water crib in the lake.

The main thing Donald wants is to be remembered so Denail and I were talking about appropriate monuments to his presidency. I was thinking something about immigrants but Denail said we've got a small model monument here in Chicago. Just make it bigger and golden.

Shit fountain, a bronze molded dog turd with water bubbling up out of it. Maybe we call one in DC Trump Fountain?

In my engineering degree I took history of witchcraft because it sounded fun to fulfill one of my history requirements and it was one of my best classes in undergrad, teaching me about feminism and the struggle people have had to be respected. It was good for teenage me to think about that.

I find it infuriating that nations who for decades have profited off the exploitation of immigrant labour, who have indeed engineered the conditions for that exploitation through making the countries of origin nigh unliveable, now dare to turn around and call migrants a drain. Absolutely maddening.

Watched Nimesh Patel's special yesterday, and one bit talked about the level of blatant corruption we've had to accept because none of our branches of government are reining it in. To me, that's why MIWHT resonates -- nothing else seems like it will stop him.

Ha ha that’s gross and should make everyone uncomfortable, anyway, Rahm presided over a Chicago police black site, lied about what it was and then I sued the Chicago police for its records that proved it:

I'm definitely listening to other folks I respect on how they think we should improve schooling. But it's also interesting applying this to other areas. If we had less people going to parks should we spend less? No. Libraries? No. Jails? Yes, but partly because we should just be spending less on it.
