"At schools, volunteers are forming human chains as students and employees enter and leave, with whistles to blow if ICE shows up.

Volunteers—many of them moms already involved at their schools—divvy up tasks, such as delivering groceries to immigrant families..."

As @fuzzywuzzyto.bsky.social points out, we are experiencing levels of ongoing stress that are usually limited to people who are living in poverty, in war zones, etc. and we are NOT used to it. No wonder we are having trouble creating, thinking, etc.

At least the Economist generally says the quiet part out loud. They’re just so Anglo-neoliberal centric that they don’t realize they are doing it.

Renee Good should still be here.

She was a beloved child of God, with inherent value and infinite worth.

She was murdered by her own government in broad daylight in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy on the planet.

The only thing to do under these horrid circumstances is adopt a(nother) rescue dog, I think you’ll agree. Not a done deal yet, but fingers crossed that one of these big boys will come home. I’m not sure Mo will be elated, but he will cope. And he will always be my BEST boy.
A very very large 8 week old puppy being held by a person. He is mostly black with a little white blaze on his chest. Another very very large puppy from the same litter, held by the same person. This one is black with white and black spotted feet and smoky white chest and muzzle blazes.

If that’s all politicians have to offer, they’re not doing nearly enough to help and we should hold them to account for that.

Yes.

Yes but the women in sports who are willing to accept that kind of protection are the right sort of women. (Also the white sort of women.)

I hear that too, but I also hear parents having to give their Black kids The Talk. There’s value in questioning the social permission structures that got us to where we are, but there is also value in living to fight another day.

Philadelphia Sheriff Rochelle Bilal warns ICE:

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".

"Fake wannabe law enforcement... The criminal in the WH will not be able to keep you from going to jail".

This blog post (by a coauthor of mine, full disclosure) does a good job explaining what happened: cepr.org/voxeu/column...
Hepatitis B and missing women: The rise and decline of a finding
Robert Barro and Steven Levitt, in their role as popular columnists, promoted a Harvard graduate student’s article which refuted Amartya Sen’s claim that discrimination accounted for the 100 million “missing women”. In his role as editor, Levitt published the article in the Journal of Political Economy. Now that the article’s central claim has been refuted – most notably by its author – it’s time to tell the ‘morality tale’.
