Have you tested your smoke alarm lately? We recommend testing them once a week and you should have one installed per floor of your home.

screenshot of text from Adam Serwer in The Atlantic: "The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they're the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive - because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about "Western civilization," while armed brutes try to tear it down by force."

I wrote about journalists who look away. From Maxim Gorky's shameful behavior in 1929 at Solovki and the death of George Polk in Greece in 1948, I move on to our current national crisis, which grows a little more urgent every day, despite those who continue to act as if nothing is happening.

@seanfennessey.bsky.social I think the main difference between Snow White and Lilo and Stitch is the uncanny valley. Those dwarves looked weird as hell in the trailers, Stitch is supposed to be an alien so it just works (and he looks more “right.”)

btw one thing I learned at the training i went to this weekend is that bc ICE isn't allowed anywhere in a business that a customer wouldn't be allowed, an employees only sign on a door is enough to cause them to need a warrant. "closed for a private event" guarantees the same
