For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.
The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.

Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

How to record ICE:
1) Record from a safe distance. DO NOT INTERVENE.
2) Put the DATE, TIME, & LOCATION on the video.
3) Ask for NAMES & BIRTHDAYS
4) CONTEXT, how many people were taken? What happened? How?
5) If possible, document vehicles used and agents, even if masked.

Movie recommendation if you want to spend time with someone who had the magic in them: It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley 🎬🎙️
(And for extra magic: @aimeemann.bsky.social is here too)
If you can, try to catch a screening with the bonus concert footage after the main screening

The song in the trailer for "Will & Harper" is a cover of "I Got You Babe", right?
Where can this gem be found? (There's a post by Safari Riot claiming ownership, but I don't know them. Their parents could be pirates).
The full movie is a treasure, btw 🛣️💺💺

One of my wise friends once said of UNDERCOVER BOSS, “The final frontier of corporate greed is demanding to be loved.” I think about it a lot.
