The mantra I keep repeating to myself, and more and more often out loud is: “I am here to protect the children.”
I AM HERE TO PROTECT THE CHILDREN. *ALL* THE CHILDREN.
And yet so many among us continue to live and breathe—swimming in indignant righteousness—the very opposite.

Just heard a mockingbird make the “don’t touch, I’m locked” sound the e-scooters make—guess that’s this generation’s car alarm.

Watching Mamdani's victory speech, I'm struck by his—and his campaign's—unabashed vision of the US as an immigrant society, a culture built from the ground up from diversity. It is a complete rejection and reversal of the search for a white-washed homogeneity that the political right projects.

Lies upon lies—for this project, and others, demolition is integral, and not somehow separate, from the overall project. It's also important to note that the National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) is currently closed due to the federal shutdown, and demo happening now is no coincidence.
The Trump administration's argument is that the National Capital Planning Commission has jurisdiction over construction but not demolition

Folks across the US: Wake up & realize DC is the proving ground for this admin’s authoritarianism. ICE kidnappings, NG invasions, unlawful demolitions—they test the waters here, then spread their tentacles. Stop feigning surprise when it comes for you & start fighting back in solidarity NOW. #FreeDC

Hope folks feel less alone today, that people join with others to take further and deeper actions, and that everyone fights like hell to protect those most vulnerable to this regime.

Today, an adverstisement for ICE appeared in my LinkedIn feed. I reported the ad for "Encouraging violent acts or threatening physical harm", because that's what ICE is doing when they threaten, abuse, and kidnap my neighbors. No justification exists for LinkeIn accepting payment for that ad.

Hi @npr.org! We worked late tonight putting together this handy pocket guide!
It doesn't address road design issues, but if we're going to educate road users, we should include drivers.
It's the size of a folded business card. Print it, fold it, put it in your wallet!
