I'm on the other side of the street and from what I can see here, there are a *lot* of officers compared to the relative small amt of protesters being detained. A bunch have already left but still 12+ squad cars, plus horses, SUVs, etc etc etc

(2/2) but that doesn't seem accurate, since I can access it by going to an existing post, hitting 'edit', and then scrolling down to 'Manage Featured Posts' and doing it that way. Unintuitive, but it works. Tested on Chrome and Opera, same behavior.

@beehiiv.com question/bug? The Featured Posts section has gotten difficult to change. I'm in the settings and everything is greyed out. The chatbot tells me that I can drag+drop titles, but I can't. The lightning icon seems to suggest I can only access this function by upgrading (1/2)
