I'm in a very red part of PA, and today I saw significantly less counter protesting. We typically have trucks with flags driving through and people yelling. I saw one middle finger and one car with dump flags. I'd like to think as shit gets worse they're not as emboldened.

Any American medium that fails to cover the largest protests in American history is failing in the basic mission of informing the public about the facts.

Southeast PA, are we doing this? This is brilliant and I will happily purchase the whistles. This needs to catch on.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

I was coming to the comments to save the same thing! Freeze the dough and you can have fresh cookies whenever you want! No need to bake them all now.

When authoritarianism is on the rise, you can count on the richest, least vulnerable men on the planet to be the biggest cowards.

Good article, and it brought up some points I had not thought of.

I'm in PA - went to Walgreens and they said I'm not eligible and cancelled my appointment. Went to my local pharmacy and I had no problem, and they got it approved with my insurance. Don't give up. Try a CVS or local pharmacy if you have one.
