As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

I used to really enjoy #TheTraitorsUS but after the last two episodes with Michael Rapaport and how the cast treated Ron Funches I think it’s pretty diabolically exploitative on the part of the producers to be putting sociopaths in a social game with neurodivergent people.

It does not solve any of the problems facing the vast majority of Americans.

It does potentially solve a few of the problems facing some of the oligarchs, namely their insatiable greed and thirst for oil and rare earth minerals to power their Orwellian data centers.

One word to have transit in cities without metros…BUSES
I find "America isn't really set up for it" to be an annoying rebuttal to any sort of proposal to reduce car dependency. Our leaders used policy to create a system of car dependency and we can sure as hell use policy to undo that. There are absolutely barriers, but do nothing is not a solution.
