This from Matt is an example of what I missed when we lost old the old twitter. Because I saw his post, I moved my afternoon run up by an hour instead of likely calling it later. It’s cool to connect with experts and interesting people in so many fields
Monday afternoon AQI update:
It's taking a LONG time for the smoke to move across the state, but the air will likely be unhealthy in the Twin Cities this evening and Monday night.

I’m a bad sleeper on planes. Flying for any length of time, I’m lucky if I get 15 minutes in a semi-restful state. I flew through the night to London in March 2023, didn’t sleep. Dropped my bag off at the hostel and almost immediately made my way to Tottenham stadium. All worth it to see this guy

My ACLU colleagues who have been working 24 hours a day were definitely not sleeping and I am just so grateful for them!
While we were all sleeping:
The Supreme Court, in an order issued in the middle of the night, ordered the Trump administration to not remove anyone under the Alien Enemies Act until other legal steps play out in the lower courts.
