My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

On the other side was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for his help.
"I wasn't planning on letting her stay, but I didn't know what the hell was going on," the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.
"I didn't want them to take her," said the man, who didn't want to be named because he fears he'll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.
"I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her,
'Just stay there. Don't open, don't, shh, just stay quiet," he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears.

The original X-Men, from left to right, Marvel Girl, Cyclops, Iceman, Beast, and Angel. Marvel Girl hovers in the sky, Iceman stands on a sheet of ice, Cyclops stands in the foreground, Beast drops from above while Angel stands by with his wings raised.

There are a lot of trash people on IG.

And if anybody gives you crap for being happy that your team won, they can piss up a rope.

I think there's a lot of efficacy in repeating that Donald Trump seems to be exhibiting profound dementia, and we should be told who is actually running the Executive Branch.

Imagine being stupid enough to ask this question of anyone, let alone David Simon, of all people. LOL

Juno Rylee Schultz @junoryleejournalism.com · 2d

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

I'm just thinking of a place where they can put him. They had him taking reps in the outfield this season in the minors. If his bat is good in the spring, I just think it's something to think about. Ben seems to be the better catcher, at least currently.

I know we're short on catching depth, but I think they should give some serious thought to transitioning Rushing to the outfield next season and just keep Big Ben as the backup.

Anyway, somebody should check on that guy who wanted to know what it's like to pull for the bad guys.
