I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.
Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.
An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.
Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.
“I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.”

it always feels like we're being forced to throw a dinner party for the worst people on earth, and we have to shut up and smile and be gracious, no complaints, while the worst people on earth are our honored guests and we best not embarrass ourselves in front of them no matter what they do to us

The Republicans intend to personally carry out all of their most batshit WHO/FEMA conspiracy theories about wiping out 1/3 of the population.

"why does restaurant food taste better than food cooked at home"
The cook does not care if you live or die and uses salt and butter accordingly

Growing up is realizing that all the atrocities you learned about in history where “at the time, nobody knew better” certainly included tons of people who did, in fact, know better, but were silenced, ignored, and forgotten.

We really need some laws to make sure that if you’re wearing glasses that record video everyone knows it. Legally mandate that if you’re wearing smart glasses you also have to wear a cap with a propeller on it

Leftists have been actively and accurately predicting this for at least the last twenty years, and all the people saying "how did this happen?" spent those twenty years demonizing us for it. And the point isn't to be bitter or anything, just a suggestion that people re-examine a few preconceptions.

What is the lifespan of software? What if you make software that's silly and full of whimsy? Will people remember it? Anyway, here's a video someone recently posted of “Good Luck, Babe!” by Chappell Roan performed through the composer feature in Mario Paint, a game released on Super Nintendo in 1992

conservatism basically seems to be the idea that the chosen few shouldn’t ever have to feel uncomfortable. a smooth-brained politics that desires nothing less than a frictionless existence of homogeneity

Why did anyone give any Conservative any consideration, THEY ARE ALL OBVIOUS FASCISTS. Good conservatives rethink their life choices and move AWAY from hate. The rest are unfit for life in modern society.
Fuck them, fuck christianity, and fuck capitalism.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

For the love of God, if I see one more ',grow your own food' hot take.
Sure, for occasional fresh herbs or a few veggies.
Nobody is growing to their entire caloric intake in an apartment or on a balcony.
