To add to this, one of my students who uses a wheelchair simply could not get to class last week because of the unshoveled sidewalks. They tried for over an hour and had to turn around and get home because their wheels spun in the snow and they couldn't get to crosswalks. Really awful.
Maybe with the next storm, #Boston can concentrate just a tad more on crosswalks in what is allegedly America's most walkable city

I've been having mixed feelings about this all day, because the rest of the order is powerful and righteous, but a sitting judge signing off any order (let alone a fiery defense of the Constitutional order, which includes judicial non-endorsement of religion) with Bible verses is Bad, Actually.
Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept."
Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

This isn’t about convicting Don Lemon. It’s unlikely that will happen. It’s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. It’s about eroding the free press because the administration can’t afford the criticism.
This just in: "Don Lemon was taken into custody by federal agents last night in Los Angeles, where he was covering the Grammy awards," Lemon's attorney Abbe Lowell says.

Career DOJ prosecutors in both Minnesota and Los Angeles refused to be involved in charging Don Lemon and the other journalists who covered the Minneapolis church protests.
The prosecutors believe the evidence does not support the charges, per @carolleonnig.bsky.social.

Omg! Local San Antonio news is at a protest in Dilley, Texas at the Family Prison where Liam Ramos is being held.
Y'all I'm crying so hard. These young people are so brave. I'm guessing most are from San Antonio.
Absolutely clear video proof that the cops were the only violent actors here.

"Actually, what you, the officer do is on film, and the camera will need to be on whenever you're interacting with people and not just when you decide you want it to be" is, in fact, better than "you get to decide when you are documented"
ICE are running around in the streets using facial recognition on random people and telling anyone filming them they're a domestic terrorist and Democrats solution is to equip every ICE agent with their very own body-worn surveillance camera

My Senator. Thank you!
Right now, Democrats have the power to defund and abolish ICE. We should do it. This is about right and wrong—and the murder we are seeing on the streets is just plain wrong. Anyone who supports funding DHS and ICE is supporting the murder of Americans. We can stop this.

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.
A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.
ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

Capitalism would rather spend $10,000 on oversight of hypothetical "fraud", than allow one dollar's worth of a good or service go to to someone it has designated as "undeserving". Especially it can punish a whole category of people it doesn't see as fully human in the process.

In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

Yup. I'm not doing a lot of dwelling on it. But I can recognize when I did poorly in my past, own up to it and strive to be better in this moment. It doesn't *hurt* me to admit previous shitty behavior! I'm glad I don't do that particular shitty behavior anymore! I'm not thinking of it 24/7, though.
I think there's also a thing here about what range of levels and types of shame people are capable of holding (and expecting of each other) - being ashamed of past behaviour can mean dwelling on it intensely or just going 'yeah, I shouldn't have done that and I wish I hadn't' if it comes up
