we need to make Chi Osse's life hell (or at least make his socials unusable) until he runs against HJ

(this is actually existing utilitarianism)

Just about everyone vulnerable has been told to stay inside. There are literally hundreds of trained emergency response people on the streets of the 1.8 sq mile neighborhood. ICE is driving through alleys looking for anyone who’s brown

This is Fugitive Slave Act stuff + foreign occupation

Rogers Park

Northernmost lakefront n’hood in Chicago

One of few n’hoods w no racial majority. One of the most densely populated places in America, & one of the most racially/ethnicly/religiously/linguistically diverse

An amazing community

And under attack

she pretty much admits that they’re using the shadow docket to side step precedent here

Amy Coney Barrett defends heavy use of the shadow docket: "If we wrote a long opinion, it might give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue, and in none of these cases have we finally resolved the issue."

the next Democratic president absolutely cannot be as old-school nativist as Biden, we squandered a massive opportunity and it still ended up killing his approval ratings

the thing is that the idea of trying to make kosher gumbo is in fact extremely funny. i think the only thing you could make that's more treyf is clams and chorizo with butter.

look I know it's mostly just a consequence of Congresspeak vs a value judgement but we have a legal term for 'deliberate unlawful killing'
thebulwark.com
Rep. Jim Himes on Trump blowing up boats in the Caribbean: "The White House has not shared what they believe their legal justification is. They did put out a memo. I will tell you based on what I know now and the reading of that memo, these are illegal killings."

I thought this episode on Enoch Powell (sort of a prototype post-war European far-right politician) was enlightening, from an historian who specializes in the 1960s–70s

Perhaps most striking was how unanimously & strenuously Tory elite and British newspapers condemned Powell

What’s weird about this meme is 1) seeing some of the comments conflate Judaism with Israel but also 2) the ignorance of very long standing Jewish communities in the South who have been making gumbo for a long time.

Here’s one family’s recipe for kosher gumbo: jewishsa.org/kosher-chick...

i mean, the administration needs to deport him somewhere where journalists won't go and where he will die as quickly as possible
juliedicaro.bsky.social
So Kilmer Abrego-Garcia will not challenge a deportation to Costa Rica, who has agreed to for him residency, but DHS won’t agree to send him there because it’s not cruel enough.

www.nytimes.com/2025/10/10/u...
For weeks, Mr. Abrego Garcia, a Salvadoran national who is married to a U.S. citizen, has made clear that he would not challenge his deportation if he were sent to Costa Rica, which has promised him legal residency and guaranteed that he would not be sent back to El Salvador.

But the Trump administration has refused to deport him to Costa Rica, and in an earlier hearing this week, Judge Xinis pressed the administration to consider the option or clarify why it was unacceptable.

One thought that regularly worries me is that this may be true of some, but not all, humans
tiredgenerally.bsky.social
i think human’s ingest knowledge in a similar way to an llm, in that our heuristics for learning and outputting information are based on how we interact with language and pretty much reality-agnostic.
