Good reporting on the South Shore raid from South Side weekly here.

Confirms one thing I was told but didn't put in my own piece because I didn't have a second source and it seemed too insane: border agents segregated arrested residents by race

Federal Agents Storm South Shore Building, Detaining Families and Children
Families were woken by flashbangs and helicopters as hundreds of federal agents raided their homes. Days later, neighbors are still searching for the missing.

"The Empire is a disease that thrives in darkness. It is never more alive than when we sleep... And maybe it's true, maybe fighting's useless. Perhaps it's too late. But I'll tell you this - if I could do it again, I'd wake up early, and be fighting these bastards from the start."

In case it wasn’t already obvious, Our Flag wouldn’t exist without Butch Cassidy, The Princess Bride, or Midnight Cowboy.

2 out of 3 of these were written by William Goldman (who also wrote an unproduced screenplay about Stede and Blackbeard for Roger Moore and Sean Connery to star).

Paleontology just lost a real one: Mark Norell, Curator Emeritus of fossil amphibians, reptiles & birds in @amnh.org's Division of Paleontology. The WSJ once called Mark "the coolest dude alive," he described some truly astounding fossils, mentored loads of paleontologists and was a good human 💔

I just… love #OrphanBlack so much. AND it’s all about bodily autonomy, identity and found families. Rewatching it now is so intense and clarifying.

I’d watch an entire documentary about the casting process for #OrphanBlack.

I know the show ended years ago, but Tatiana Maslany’s performance on #OrphanBlack was so good I’m like, let’s give that lady some retroactive Emmys and Golden Globes. Like, this is WILD!!

The United States would not exist if George Washington hadn’t ordered his troops to be vaccinated.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla.

This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.
