Congratulations to Minneapolis and MN.

You did it right. You made their lives miserable, you made their job impossible, you made them overreact, two of you sacrificed your lives, the rest of you were undaunted, they lost all semblance of moral authority, and you won, honouring the lives lost.

My middlest's high school was on lockdown this morning.

High school is not now what it once was.

We have avoided the scourge of school shootings in the US, and hopefully they continue to remain extremely rare.

But it's difficult to imagine that anything awful in the US is not coming eventually.

K, well bluesky is even more dismal than usual, and it's not even because of the Olympic hockey game.

Seeing some US athletes in Italy speaking out against what's happening in Minnesota is nice.

Hearing some politicians taking an actual stand on the Epstein files is nice.

Everything else sucks.

Canada's ladies looking a little outclassed without their captain today. A lot of unnecessary mistakes. Hopefully Poulin can get back on the ice quickly.

I couldn't wait to do the first §Blawx-powered coding agent experiment. Short version is that the workflow works, but the coding task was too easy to be confident whether the Blawx encoding was helping. #LegalTech #RulesAsCode app.blawx.dev/content/blaw...

Or, and I know this is going to sound crazy, but stay with me, how about you just refuse to fund them until the government proposes something systemic that will stop the murders, kidnappings, and concentration camps.

Because nothing here will even help a little.
Dems coalescing around 5 restrictions on ICE, I'm told:

DHS required to cooperate with state probes (big)
CBP stays at border
warrants for arrests
IDs, bodycams
ICE out of churches, schools

"That package unites a lot of Dems," Sen Chris Murphy tells me on the pod:

I know that the US treatment of Canada has been lore in the Fallout universe from the very beginning of the very first game.

But it still feels very topical to see a Canada-US border with "The Big 51" painted over it in the closing credits.

Yeah, yeah. Now is always the most important moment. Next is always the most important decision. Blah blah blah. 🙄

That's not how anything works, though, is it? Things change slowly. It is the constant pressure over time that determines the ultimate new direction.

Cultivate pressure.

We'll stop "immigration enforcement" if you give us your voter records?

Voter records.

That's straight up extortion.

Like, they don't even pretend not to be a criminal enterprise, anymore. They have no intention of facing democratic accountability, so they don't care.

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

In a perfect world, deaths of protestors for no reason at the hands of ICE would be less frequent, and less predictable.

That's not the world we have.

Minnesotans have another unwanted opportunity to prove that they are better at democracy than the US government is at fascism.

100% tariffs on Canada if we deal with China?

Imagine how much faster our trade would shift away from the US and toward China if that happened.

Like rehab for US economic dependency.

Don't hate that idea at all.

Really impressed with Minnesotans this year. Protests are nice. General strikes are better. Effective resistance is golden. Create friction at every opportunity. Make retreat the path of least resistance. When they react in violence, shame them, and persist.

This is the thing. Canada doesn't live because of the United States.We, like many others, have died for the United States

The disrespect, saying that we have done nothing, that we should be grateful for trade wars and threats of annexation.

Coming from someone below contempt that you re-elected.

Jesus Christ, AI journalism is so bad right now.

Exhibit one, Gizmodo is raving about an article that 'proves' LLMs have a "mathematical limit" and can't possibly do tasks that are too complex.

Let's look at the actual paper, shall we?

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.
