Immigrants ‘plucked out of line’ at citizenship ceremony at Faneuil Hall “the cradle of liberty”.
If you ever claimed you want immigrants to do it the right way, this should outrage you. On the other hand, If you think this was okay, you need to come to terms with your white nationalist views.

Harriet Tubman was [made] disabled—
meaning an enslaver hit her on the head with a pipe when she was a teenager so she suffered migraines, fainting, and visions (or 'hallucinations') for the rest of her life.
Which makes what she did that much more remarkable.

About a month after Elon bought Twitter he held an online poll on his new site asking if folks thought he was doing a good job running it.
When it came back a resounding “No” he appeared to have a mental breakdown.
He has been much more erratic ever since.

You might think from the headline that this is a story about a trans kid suffering medical consequences from a large drug dose but nope! It is just an interview with an estranged father who is angry that his child happily transitioned.

Double aside: which trade would you align with if you didn't have a cushy tech job is a great question!
Electrician/networking is too obvious so I disallow that.
I'd either do drywall or framing.
Roofing is out. Not because of fall risk, but because it is so hot up there! Did once. Never again.🙅🏿♂️

I always run into Brad Lander around the neighborhood because he's on his way to help people out; Goldman was supposed to be at a community meeting (of mostly elderly folks!) who had all come out to talk with him, and at the last minute, he FaceTimed in from his car instead, and left the call early.
