You're welcome to.

It's more like you come upon problems.

We had a lot of issues immediately after the election last year. Dangerous nazi types showed up. So, there was some battling for a while. That's kind of what I mean.

But it's been much calmer. 🤞🏼

No-Go area at the Portland ICE facility. Take heed!

officers just came out and seized a handful of people. some of them it was for standing on this piece of sidewalk that is not sidewalk, it’s part of the property so they’ll nab you if you stand there

In fact, if you ever have any problems here, knock on my door. (DMs always open.) :)

Sometimes the nasties do get in. But there are ways to get rid of (most) of them. Or at least to keep them out of your space.

Running into white missionaries who think they're being coy about trying to go to a non-Christian majority country to convert people will never not be both hilarious and sinister

Social scientists have been arguing for decades that race and gender cannot be viewed through the teleological lens of progress, and never in my lifetime has that been more clear and important to understand than now.

Yeah, that was a nasty surprise. I had my ad blocker turned off because sometimes it interferes with reaching sites. That was very surprising though.

Thanks for sharing about the UIC campus action. This is so traumatic for people. #smh

It was them. The video that gets played back shows the same Buick Encore. It looks different in that it shows the abduction from the driver's side.
