Make the Goddamn meal and put it in your Free Fridge. Write the $100 check to the food bank. Ask your local school what they need for the kids and then go about trying to get that stuff.... Do these things regularly and you are making meaningful contributions to your communities.

I say it all the time, but imma say it again: a lot of very book smart people lack the emotional education and communication skills that would allow them to generate the courage they want to embody in their work. They are incurious about their own emotional lives, and consequently, those of others.

ICE has been sidestepping some of the city's most organized resistance. They're learning, and they are also wearing people out. Meanwhile, conservatives will cover their attacks on Chicagoland as successful operations in Chicago, while a lot of liberals (who don't live here) insist the city is fine.

a lot of legacy news outlets are used to leaning on government sources. but now those sources are all radicalized freaks, and there's been no adjustment for that.
