DOCTOR: I told him he needed to get out to a show, that was how he would cure his depression.

CHOTINER: So you learned this technique in school?

DR: No, notβ€” listen it was good advice. Pagliacci was in town.

C: Right. Is it standard to give advice before learning a patient’s name?

DR: Now look

Opinion | Liam Ramos Was Just One of Hundreds of Children at This Detention Center. Release Them All.

"A 2-year-old boy was breastfeeding in detention. One 6-year-old boy had leukemia. An 8-year-old girl began wetting the bed. A 14-year-old girl engaged in self-harm...None of these children or their parents had a criminal history anywhere in the world."

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

Thinking of #DerekJarmen (who was born yesterday long ago)What an impact his films had on me.How magical those Super 8s are. The only person who could capture the spirit inside a human on film in the way Van Gogh or Bacon could trap that crackling soul energy on a canvas

that little girl has every right to be on the sidewalk of her own damn city. she lives here. i don't want to hear any shit about how she shouldn't have been down there. she is a citizen of portland oregon and she is entitled to use of our public sidewalks at all times

I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

if you’re tear gassing little kids you lose your job, you get arrested, tried, and jailed

simply no other option in a civilized society, these goons must face consequences

Video shared with me by attendee at the ICE protest in Portland, OR earlier this evening where federal agents tear gassed peaceful protestorsβ€”including children, disabled and elderly:

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

Just got gassed pretty good at the labor union anti-ICE protest in Portland. Massive march, 5-10k strong. Vibes were very much liberal rather than radical. Lots of kids and older folks.

They gassed the whole crowd as soon as it marched on ICE, in broad daylight.

Epstein is the most garish and harrowing manifestation of this but oligarchy makes life miserable in a thousand other ways. A core point of democracy is that no one should have so much power that they can make themselves everybody's problem. We should have a political party that believes that

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

It should not take a court order to get a toddler out of a prison.

One of my most cherished classes is my 18th century novels course where the primary learning objective is "learn how read long novels." We did a "couch to 5k" approach to attention span and note-taking.

My hot take about the β€œstudents cannot read whole novels / watch whole films / etc.” is that they can learn to do it. None of us are born with attention spans suited for long media. It is a learned skill and can be developed with practice.

it’s not necessarily that all these people in the epstein files participated in the raping of girls it’s that none of them cared and if he hadn’t been arrested and died they’d still be out there trying to be his friend

β€˜Mommy, why don’t you pick us up?’: Mother of Liam Conejo Ramos shares her story from hiding Liam and his father are currently being held by federal authorities in the South Texas Family Residential Center in Dilley, an hour plus drive southwest of San Antonio.

In an interview with MPR News, Liam's mother gave an update on her son and her own safety. She said Liam asks again and again, β€œMommy, why don’t you pick us up?” Or β€œMommy, we don’t want to be here anymore. This place is ugly.”
