Unarmed woman executed by state may have been on committee to fight against unarmed women being executed by the state
The woman killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis last week served on the board of her son’s school, which linked to documents encouraging parents to monitor ICE and directing them to training. https://cnn.it/49yoNEa

Ran across a text message from last week where I described myself on 1/5 as in the "tail end" of being sick. If only that were true.

Last week someone asked Dear Hank & John why escalators that go down aren’t called descalators and I honestly haven’t stopped thinking about it.
'Escalate,' as in "tensions escalate," comes from the word 'escalator.'
It first appeared in print in 1944.
'Escalator' originated as a trademarked term for the Otis Elevator Company's moving staircase and was demonstrated at the Paris Exposition in 1900.

When TikTok gets on a music jam it is unparalleled. Victoria Canal arranged Blackbird in a dark Radiohead-ish style, then Blake Farfan ran with it to create this. The ending chord is… indescribable.

(It is interesting how many of my go to albums are either from the 80’s or the 00’s)

LinkedIn desperately needs a thumbs down option. It is suggesting I take a look at Mercor. I can't think of a company more outside of my interest and values.

Considering that I’m playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 seven months after its release date, I’ve been impressed how little of the plot has been spoiled for me.

Watched del Toro’s Frankenstein last week in the theater, thoroughly enjoyed it. Watched again last night at home - never glanced at my phone once. It is truly mesmerizing.
