I couldn’t get street view to exactly the right spot- it it is about right. That said - the trees do look odd and the soldiers look NPC ish …

A Year of Convulsions in New York’s Prisons Jennifer Gonnerman reports on how two murders and a strike exposed a system at its breaking point.

Incarcerated people have long talked about a “blue wall of silence” in prisons: an unspoken agreement among correction officers to cover up for one another’s abuses. A report filed after the murder of Robert Brooks exemplifies this phenomenon.

Emphatically this! It’s not hard

Taking a breather:

Home Alive - Wikipedia

Will there be a time to box the ears, gouge the eyes, and knee the groin of the masked unaccountable assailants- possibly. But we all can take small steps to not let it get there. Perhaps that means not going to a protest alone. Taking a page from:

The likely and disproportionate victims will be non white Christo-nationalists.

One video of a non-maga coded person doing ANYTHING they can make stick as evidence for lawlessness will comeback on the historically disenfranchised 1000 fold.

To be clear - i have heard that “telling people to not take the bait”
Is equivalent to telling a DV survivor to “not mouth off” etc. Fair enough- but consider the scale of the abuse and the statistically likely victims of the abuse will be when it is martial law ( or equivalent )?

Big ups to @parkroseperma.bsky.social for her non-flinching calls for NONVIOLENCE and peaceable but creative resistance to the regime.

Do. Not. Take. The. Bait!

Flyer for the student rally for Palestine

Students rallying at Cal Anderson park in support of Palestine

Students rallying on the Denny bridge in Seattle for Palistine

Today over 100 students walked out of class to march though Seattle to end to the Palestinian Genocide

It was organized, peaceful, and had zero conflict with the police, so you probobly won’t see anything about it on the news

But remember that people are resisting, even if you don’t see it

Public official removes Flock Safety camera that the city unilaterally agreed to remove, gets arrested.

This is what it looks like when a data broker startup has more power than your justice system.

Thank you ! I feel seen.

Loved your approach to the review - very much just a focus on the joy and ambient exploration the new OS exposes. Nice to see a few vendors who keep adding value after a product ships. Props to Korg and Novation and even Waldorf!

B&T is a book distribution company that has been around for more than a century in support of public libraries book acquisition and collection management. That they are closing on such very, very short notice is creating new pressures on both libraries and other vendors in the space. Bad news.
