"When the call for volunteers went out, 500 community members stepped up, filling more than 1,000 shifts at nearly 100 schools on Chicago’s northwest side.

This “guardian angel” movement has continued to grow, and volunteers have shown up in droves daily at school pick-up and drop-off locations."

I love the inflatable costumes from a purely strategic standpoint because it quite effectively takes the wind out of the sails of "war-torn portland" "antifa supersoldier" type rhetoric. it happened organically and dare I say, memetically, but it works

What a wonderfully ludicrous cartoon of over the top violence,
nudity and car chases. The satirical edge has aged very well. It's hilarious (especially Sylvester Stallone). Banger. 🎥 #Filmsky

Poster for Death Race 2000. A white background. Hand done. Cars crashing, flipping, racing. A beautiful woman in a revealing white cat suit, a man in a black leather suit and black helmet. The tag line reads "In the year 2000 hit and run driving is no longer a felony. It's the national sport!".

that last line

Under Dr. Mermin’s leadership, new H.I.V. infections in the nation dropped by 36 percent, and resurgent sexually transmitted infections showed the first signs of a plateau nationwide.

He also directed health departments to spend the bulk of their money on prevention. It was “a very precise and scientific and logical approach” to make the biggest impact for the least money, said Greg Millett, who worked as a deputy for the Office of National AIDS Policy in the Obama White House.

Now, however, Dr. Mermin is spending his days at home with his chickens and his misbehaving cat. The fate of the H.I.V. division hangs in the balance, and he worries that lawmakers may not realize its importance. “What if no one cares?” he said.

My favorite aspect of the Columbus legend is him getting rejected by the Portuguese gets spun as them not recognizing the genius of his idea. No - he went into a roomful of expert navigators and made basic math mistakes, they thought he was a moron, and they wouldn't fund his idea on that basis.

"Petrichor" is one of my favorite words

Mr Autumn Man @pnwnwa.myatproto.social · 2d

petrichor- the smell of earth after rain.

Poet Thomas Merton said, “…it will talk as long as it wants, this rain. As long as it talks, I am going to listen.”
