"All power corrupts but we need electricity." "I am mighty! I have a glow you cannot see! I have a heart as big as the moon, as warm as bathwater! We are superheroes, man! We don't have time to be charming! The boots of evil were made for walking!"
Whose "endstate" is nothing more coherent than to look tough; who doesn't care about the US being a pariah.
ugh
every quantitative measure is actually a stack of qualitative assumptions in a trenchcoat
UPDATE: A tense, day-long standoff outside a South Burlington house ended Wednesday night with federal immigration agents removing three people inside and a series of violent clashes between police and hundreds of activists who tried to impede the apprehension.

oh come on!
there is G Mart in Milford

Here is the thing with so-called human shields: they ought to work. No made-up "objective" justifies killing children, doctors, sick people. It makes us violent terrorists and radicalizes survivors.
Israel and the US appear to want to do to Tehran what they have done to Gaza: reduce a busy and complex society to a toxic wasteland.
Hi neighbor, Southington too
Lebanon's health ministry says Israeli forces have killed 294 ppl and injured 1,024 others since dawn on Monday, when it escalated aggressions on the country with a wave of airstrikes in response to Hezbollah rockets.
In Iran, the death toll since the US & Israel launched its war surpassed 1,300.
Chris Murphy: "I think it's likely the United States that carried out this attack on this school. I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact this was one of our first targeting decisions speaks to the incompetence of our leadership at the Dept of Defense."
Also gratuitous and ultimately foolish.
President Catherine Connolly has described the situation in the Middle East as a "deliberate assault on international law".
And (4) does "prison system" include jails, where people are only accused, not convicted?
(1) whether they've had or will get due process for immigration status (is this, e.g., happening to US citizens profiled for having various ethnic heritages), (2) the concept of having already fully served their time, and (3) is there actually any evidence of violence or are these petty shoplifters?
Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.
Oh hell ^^^ that is my husband right there.
Exact times are for work. For fun, oh six-ish/seven-ish. We're going to hang around and chat before anyone eats anyway.
C in CT. I get really annoyed if someone comes early, before I am done cleaning up the preparation mess or cleaning up myself.
You see, it was too early to use the "human shield" argument.
Yes, together with the <shrug> "more people will die"

It is with great excitement to announce that the below map is outdated and Connecticut has a Plug In solar proposal this year!!!!
Section 5 of Bill 5340 - Overwhelming support for this bill and concept in the public hearing that was held yesterday❤️☀️🔌
This is good news, and also it's evidence that pressure works. Unions, NH residents, and Yalies have been pushing for this for a decade.
Well that would be interesting to know. I don't have the answer, but there is some comparison to be made there to the (probably disproven, but compelling as metaphor) idea that Arctic people have many subtly different words for types of snow!
