Inciting non-violence
White Homeland Security SUV’s parked in violation of National Development parking lot restrictions, near the Burlington MA ICE facility. So far NatDev has shown no shame in aiding & abetting ICE.

The integral under this spike is how much disaster capitalism profited off this f*uck up. Let’s call it an hour at $2500/MWh. Peak demand was about 15,500MW during that hour. So this was on the order of $40M in profit - ultimately paid by ratepayers.

The grid abruptly went on “red alert” for about an hour, starting around 5:40pm.

Actually it was an emergency:

For the many who can (not everyone can) it’s a reliable 15 min by bike & 35 min by foot; you’ll pollute less, save money, increase your health, reduce congestion for those who actually must use a car, and reduce your utter dependency on the car-fossil-fuel-industrial complex.

New sign, plenty of honks & thumbs up! NatDev.com please do the right thing and stop helping ICE by providing parking.

This is why small acts of support for ICE, like free ICE parking provided by National Development, of Newton Lower Falls, MA, needs to end.
If you are connected with NatDev through social media or other networks, please share it with them.

Burlington MA ICE property owner Robert W. Murray has avoided accountability for code violations occurring inside his building.

Exhibit A: Town of Burlington addresses a strongly worded letter to Murray re: code violations.
But Murray never replies. ICE replies on Murray’s behalf. 1/2

To @iso-ne.com, the most consequential energy transformation of our time is “behind the meter”. Our regional grid operators need to either embrace the transition or get out of the way.

But apparently National Development makes an exception for ICE routinely parking detainee vans on its lots. Photo today.

National Development, Newton, MA, does care about its parking on its properties on District Ave, Burlington, MA…

Professor watchlist hasn’t been updated in years. It’s stale. Checking it occasionally over the years, I’m disappointed to have never made it.

Still, it’s a useful resource to find some profs with values and integrity.

Since the Comm Ave ped crossing signal has been activated for weeks now, I made temporary improvements to the Auburndale, NewtonMA Comm Ave carriage lane project sidewalk. No more curb hopping! You’re welcome, @massdot.bsky.social

@bostonu.bsky.social why did you single out the Pride flag for removal but allowed the Israel flag at Hillel (until you were called out)?

And why are these Ukraine flags ok but Pride flags are not? Photo from two days ago.

Selective enforcement is illegal; appeasing hate is shameful & cowardly.
