always bears repeating that this is NOT a financial decision. jeff bezos is worth over 250 billion dollars. he can afford to lose many millions and never even notice it. this is, at its core, a political and personal decision by bezos to destroy the post
WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington Post says one-third of its staff across all departments, not just the newsroom, is being laid off.

My understanding is that immigrants in Minneapolis are trying to leave their homes as little as possible. People are helping them pay rent, get groceries, etc. In those circumstances shouldn’t you want to minimize the spread of any illness as much as possible? Especially during flu season?

If you're an adult who was vaccinated, you should get your titers run to make sure you still have immunity. Vaccination can wane and/or you may not have generated a strong immune response. That was ok when we had herd immunity but we're likely about to lose our "measles free" status.
Vaccinate your kids, you friggin nuts.
Measles cases this year have reached nearly 26% of last year's total cases, which totaled 2,255.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

The Rodney King video is one of the most important moments in American history because it showed people, particularly comfortable white people, irrefutable evidence that marginalized people’s stories of how police behaved - which were never believed - were in fact true.
Imagine how much they’d be lying about what happened without all the videos showing it from multiple angles.

Disorienting how many posts listing admirable things about Alex Pretti ("he was a nurse, he was an amazing colleague") list "he was a US citizen" as if it's a virtue.
As if it makes his death more of an outrage.
May the state murderers of all people - citizens, non-citizens, all - face justice.

People already working hard to prove how perfect Alex Pretti was. To show he didn't "deserve" to be killed. But it's a trap folks. You're only feeding into a dynamic where people who are considered lesser get no protection. You don't have to be an Alex Pretti to deserve to live.
