At a peaceful protest organized by Unions in Portland, OR that marched past an Ice facility. Without warning or provocation launches tear gas and flash banks into the crowd. I had just observed a family with an infant and ~ 3 year old near where gas was deployed

Oh interesting. I lost my younger brother to suicide after his battle with mental health. My college roommate was an English major and loved infinite jest and based on him loving it I would never touch it. But now maybe I should

Just started doing new data analysis and I know I keep saying this, but: I really, really don't think people appreciate how much this moral panic was a deliberate and extremely expensive invention.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

@tressiemcphd.bsky.social this quote is really sticking with me. Thank you.
βitβs probably critical that a state break your heart so that you can develop a political imagination.β

I'd never worked on a piano before. So many little parts in there. The bottom screws had broken which dropped the pedals adjustment out. A key damper and one other part whose name I do not know had fallen off.

I volunteer as a handyman at a local LGBTQ community center, the PDX Q center, and my most recent task was fixing their incredible piano. They got it from Darcelle who was a famous Portland drag queen

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.
