We all knew the Rock Chalk chant would start with over a minute to go in the game tonight, right?

Love me some late game Melvin Council, Jr.

I hate a lot of things in the world right now. I do not hate the first 8+ minutes of this KU game.

So if I had a blood clot in my arm, would that be bad? This feels like a thing one shouldn’t google at this dark hour of the night.

I feel like Maddie tonight is mostly a pep talk to encourage us to keep going.

NEW: Top DOJ officials quit after their division refused to probe Minnesota ICE shooting - At least four leaders of the Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good.

I would love it if the last pass of Rodgers’ career is a pick-6.

Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.

Minneapolis right now—

At 35th and Park, a crowd has gathered after a car crash involving the feds. Agents just launched tear gas and pepper balls at people.

The real problem is I bet he actually was following his informal training. The culture at this agency is authoritarian, shoot first, fuck these damn liberals. So, yeah, he followed that completely.
DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin claims the officer who killed Renee Good "followed his training. He was in fear for his life. He was in fear for the law enforcement officers around his lives. And that's when he followed his training and this situation turned deadly."

ICE is just driving around harassing workers in Minnesota. The taxpayers are paying for goons to harass, kidnap, assault, and molest taxpayers.

Make this make sense.

Anyone remember the camp song about the 10 bears in the bed and the little one said roll over so they all rolled over and one fell out until only the little one was left and the little one said, “I’m lonely.” Annabelle is the little bear and I am the 9 others. She is one butt cheek away from lonely.

Annabelle was barking to get me to play with her. So I sat on the floor to play for a few minutes. She promptly climbed onto my lap, curled up, and went to sleep. So now I’m stuck sitting on the floor with neither my book nor my knitting within reach. Well-played, dog.

I have a lot of friends in Minneapolis. I don’t think enough people not in that city realize just how unlivable ICE is making that metro area. They are terrorizing people just for shits and giggles.

This is insane. Our president is insane.

My body temperature still feels wrong. Surely an hour spent outside in 40 degree weather can’t have this much effect. So I must be getting sick, which sucks.

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why:

They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course.

The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.
