As today is Thanksgiving here in the US it is constitutionally mandated that you listen to Arlo Guthrie’s “Alice's Restaurant Massacree” at least once.

Sorry. I don’t make the rules. 🤷‍♀️

ICE raided a church in Charlotte, showed no ID, chased congregants into the woods, and left children sobbing.

The Trump administration is beyond inhumanity. This must end.

By far this one. Working on this piece fundamentally changed the way I think about prospects + the culture around youth sports, especially in hockey. I spent a year and a half working on it, start to finish, and it truly was a formative experience to write.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Every single Dem that caved and agreed to this deal needs to be primaried and voted out. They are cowards who wasted the last month for a half baked promise vote a month from now.

The worst part though is the step back from the sport moving away from patriarchal demands of performative femininity on the ice. Enforcement is left up to USFS officials at events, so if you are giving “gender non conforming” in a skate, you could be subject to invasive verification requirements.

A rope plus #CarolinaCulture while there are still lynchings happening, including Javion McGee in NC just last year is so unnecessary.

I get the metaphor but I'm so tired

And has the sacrifice with an axe and chains always been there?????
