today someone said “you’re wrong to be upset with me. it must be hard being so over sensitive” &, condescension aside, I am so tired of “over sensitivity” being used as an insult. I think it’s OK, & might even be a good thing, to be deeply affected by what people do & say.

I’m horrified to hear that two people were kidnapped by ICE in Evanston this morning.

There’s a protest at Home Depot shortly. We’ll be delivering water and supplies to protesters — I hope you’ll join us in standing with our community.

Part of the problem is that office holders are treated as if they’re somehow part of a noble elect who are entitled to their position, and it’s our job to personally identify with their struggles and understand just how tough they have it.

ICE kidnapped a 7th-grader with a pending asylum claim and spirited him out of state without notifying his parents, seemingly with the cooperation of the local police in Everett, MA.

Everett 13-year-old arrested by ICE and sent to Virginia detention facility

A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by ICE in Everett and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia.
A 13-year-old boy was arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents in Everett after an interaction with members of the Everett Police Department and sent to a juvenile detention facility in Virginia, according to his mother and immigration lawyer Andrew Lattarulo.

The boy’s mother, Josiele Berto, was called to pick her son up from the Everett Police Department on Thursday, the day he was arrested. After waiting for about an hour and a half, she was told her son was taken by ICE, Berto told the Globe in a phone interview.

“My world collapsed,” Berto said in Portuguese.

From the police department, the boy was taken to ICE’s holding facility in Burlington on Thursday evening, where he spent a night before being transferred by car to the Northwestern Regional Juvenile Detention Center in Winchester, Va., on Friday morning, his mother said. The juvenile facility is more than 500 miles away from Everett.

The boy is a 7th-grader at Albert N. Parlin School in Everett, his mother said. The teen and his family, who are Brazilian nationals, have a pending asylum case and are authorized to work legally in the United States, Lattarulo said.

The post striking for the second time in a year is hard; not just for confidence in using the post, but for businesses that rely on it. The people provide an essential service.

Sales have been bad since the tariffs started. On top of that I've had to cancel orders because people got angry at me for not being able to ship out their orders fast enough. People don't care I've had to deal with the tariffs and Canada Post strike mess. It's been tough.
