✅ 100daysofcode (ex: anki flashcards & chatting about my addiction to codewars coding problems 🤓)
And most importantly, I have a cute cat named ember 😉

Haven't continued the freelancing hunt yet but:
🍀 Signed up to build a nonprofits wordpress site for free
🟢 learned about ACF
🟢 Got so frustrated with paywalls that instead of using ACF, i learned how to make a plugin to build custom blocks for them

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

- styling edits

one way or another, your brain and your body will take breaks.
you can do this intentionally, through planning for it, sharing skills, and passing things off…
… or unintentionally, in ways that are more disruptive to you and others.
you can take regular, shorter breaks, or burn out entirely.

I paid my therapist a zillion dollars to tell me this, so I’m passing it on to anyone else in MN who needs to hear it:
Think of taking time away to recharge not as not doing the work, but as doing quality control for the work. You’re not going to be able to show up to do it well if you’re depleted

"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.

one of the best things about this whole nightmare has been watching a whole bunch of folks who have clearly never been seriously political in their lives standing up and going, no, absolutely the fuck not, we’re not letting this happen
ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”
it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

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.
