Savage! 🎄 Lake Street Church of Evanston creates a nativity scene with gas masks to remind us that Jesus was a refugee.

"This installation is not subtle. The crisis it addresses is not abstract. We ask viewers to confront the disconnect between professed religious or moral values & immigration."

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

There is a post circulating on Bluesky encouraging the moving of a frozen turkey straight into a pot of hot oil. We are combating this misinformation the best way we know how - through the power of dance music.

It seems dystopian that the survivors of mass school shootings are literally "the kids coming to save us" but we can still help. www.kaskyforcongress.com

I just wrapped up two projects with students working on automated license plate reader tech in the context of abortion and this is still more dystopian and horrific than anything we uncovered.
