During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.

Between the lunch boxes and the political Earth vs. Space story it just makes me realize that a big part of why I like Gundam so much is that I really like the way it kind of... retells itself over and over? Some might see that as a negative but it makes it such a comfy series to me.

When I think about Hamas agreeing to terms for their surrender, and why do it, I am reminded that foreign journalists haven't been allowed to work in Gaza for 2 years, and basically no recovery of human remains has happened. When the press and the morgue folks come in, it will be extremely shocking

I think you could make the argument that many college football coaches have the edge in more often being hired for and performing towards the overall mission of a college football team than deans are hired for the mission of colleges. Both are absolute poison for colleges generally though.

I think that @yungquiabo.bsky.social and @hungryghoast.bsky.social will agree with me when I say that academic deans are the same thing as college football coaches, in that they are hired to do bad things, they do them badly, they cost a lot of money, and it costs even more to get rid of them
