28 years in this field myself and I totally agree. Let people be themselves, when someone tells you what they need, honor it. Make things fun, have clear expectations, be patient.

Also, we did this whole vaccine runaround in the 90s. Asked and answered. He’s wasting resources.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.

@strictscrutiny.bsky.social A woman who has been going to the same gym as I do for years, and who has barely ever glanced in my direction, interrupted my trainer this week to point at my Struct Scrutiny Dissent shirt and give me a thumbs up. I think we’re best friends now.

4. Being extra diligent about where I spend my money
5. Taking care of my health
6. Staying connected in my community

Things I’m doubling down on:
