I have two primary vehicles. One is an automobile, the other an e-bike.

Automobiles kill approximately 100 people a day in the US. E-bikes, fewer than 10 a year.

Guess which one has a speed limiter on it?
This technology already exists and is widely used. It doesn't involve 'government surveillance' and would not allow ICE or any other government agency to stop individual cars.

Just say you think thousands of kids dying every year is worth it so you can speed!

Speed Limiters Now Mandatory in All New EU Cars
Intelligent Speed Assist (ISA) isn't an ironclad speeding prevention system, but could be just annoying enough to spark a backlash.

Even if she curled, I would NEVER have my spouse as my mixed doubles partner
Learning that Olympic mixed curling teams tend to be couples and thinking about how fraught that could be.

È questo il fiore del partigiano
O bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao!

Morto per la libertà.

Ciao, Alex

They think they can provoke us into abandoning our values. They are wrong. We will keep the peace. We will secure justice for our neighbors. And we will see this occupation end.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Sobbing at another senseless act of extreme violence by ICE while simultaneously on hold trying to get my kids registered for summer camp.

The man killed by ICE was Alex Pretti, a 37-year old Minneapolis resident, UMN graduate, and licensed nurse.

I’m 95% sure I know who they murdered. He was in my Italian class at Minnesota
