Based on my last couple rides, I also think, “multiple wheelchair on/offs” as a possibility

Knowing the law is a pretty important part of being AG. Don't send a copyright lawyer to do the People's Lawyer's job, Minnesota.

My grandmother had polio when she was a small toddler. Her family never spoke of it because polio was a “dirty person’s disease”. She also had post-polio syndrome late in life, and spent much of her 50-70s writing about it in her small town newspaper.

Private equity is buying America's hospitals and nursing homes. The playbook: pile on debt, sell the building, cut staff. The result, one landmark study found: patient deaths up about 11%. #news #information #privateequity

It’s due to the commodification of education. We don’t go to school to learn or to think. We go to school to get jobs. And because of the coupling of school to economic future, this is what we get.

Once the second tower was hit on 9/11/01, I remembered that conversation. I will always wonder what exactly The Colonel knew.

And he was not at liberty to say more. This was probably 1999-2000.

I will never, ever forget it. the Colonel said to me, “It’s coming. Make no mistake; it’s coming.” Basically, the foreign policy decisions of the US would have real, tangible consequences.

One night we were talking about…IDK… stuff. I was no older than 25. He was probably in his 50s. I think as probably talking about. It being able to fathom living in places like Gaza where acts of terrorism were prevalent.

I played softball in the Tempe Rec League with some of my kids’ parents. One of our teammates was “The Colonel”. IDK if he was actually a colonel, but he had been a high ranking officer in the Army.

He went on to say that he didn’t dislike people who were different from himself. But that if you didn’t like this country then you should leave. And I said, “we were under siege by the federal government. I do not agree with you.”

He said he was from the country and was hating driving in the city. That he almost was in a car crash. I was sympathetic — there’s a lot going on, and I can see how it would be unnerving.

We explained that some people who define themselves as patriotic aren’t honest with themselves that their views are predicated on being afraid or unsure of people who are different from themselves.

This is the bus stop. Literally no infrastructure to get to it from the D Line stop. Just this teeny sign suspended from a light pole.
Picture of a bus stop sign on a light pole with no sidewalk or any obvious infrastructure to walk to. No bench. Nothing.

Update: I will be on time if my last connection is on time. It arrives in 23 minutes, and there is literally nowhere for me to sit, despite being at a D Line stop. No benches. Nada.

The “thing to do” in the 80s/90s as a suburban kid was to go to Downtown or Uptown. It’s in large part why I still go to events in those places. So now you’re discouraging young folks from downtown so they…stop going downtown to spend money as they age? Great strategy.
