I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

So many mass shooter events over the years, you can't exist in the United States without thinking every fun event might get you killed. It makes one a bit more blase' than perhaps elsewhere.
"oh no, we successfully got Americans used to the constant specter of gun violence in their daily lives, and now they're not scared of OUR guns."
There's a video of protesters outside a Hilton last night, and some ICE goons point rifles at them, and the protesters don't move. You can almost see the goons bluescreen in that moment, like, they have zero plan for what to do next, when people are not 'properly' cowed and submissive to them.

We were just wondering in my house "was the weekend's wild underestimation of how much snow we would get a result of federal cuts?" And then this article appeared. Local news!
“Martrich argued the solution lies in restoring consistent investment in federal weather infrastructure, including staffing, observational networks and computing power.

"Without robust model guidance, the nation’s ability to anticipate and respond to weather hazards is weakened”
Local meteorologist warns federal cuts are undermining weather forecasts nationwide
EPAWA meteorologist Bobby Martrich is sounding the alarm on cuts at the federal level he says are quietly eroding the reliability of weather forecasts across the country, from national outlooks to the local forecasts residents rely on every day.

It is great to see state and local leaders stepping up to communicate about public health. Here is a screen grab of Allentown mayor Matt Tuerk speaking with Erin of the Allentown Health Bureau about the importance of vaccinating children. These short videos on social media can have a real impact.

The man who literally wrote the book on the use of vehicles as ramming weapons says any claim Good used hers as such is false, and that her execution, followed by the false claim, is "death squad behavior."
🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

Pilkey’s personal story begins, in part, at a Pizza Hut in northeast Ohio. It was there, while working during his senior year of high school, that David Pilkey Jr. ... became “Dav” thanks to a name tag made with a faulty label maker. The spelling stuck.

I've always wondered about this!

PSA: It’s not too late to get your flu shot, as the record-breaking flu season will continue for several months.

While this year’s shot is not a perfect match for the current strain, it will still reduce your chances of getting infected and help protect you from getting seriously ill. Do it now!
