TAKE BACK THE FROG (15)

Mr. Todd said he did not intend to take back the frog as a political symbol when he bought his $30 costume on Amazon several weeks into the Portland protests. He said he was just hoping to “make the president and the feds look dumb.”

🧵 regarding the shutdown:

The Democrats aren’t being clear enough about this but we can be: this shutdown is about saving lives.

If we don’t reverse the Medicaid cuts (and the ACA subsidies on insurance bought through the exchanges) that Republicans made this year, people will die.

In my opinion it’s time to retire the Nobel prizes for fields where most of the important discoveries have already been made, like physics, and add prizes for newer fields where substantial innovations occur every year, like speedrunning

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

On the other side was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for his help.
"I wasn't planning on letting her stay, but I didn't know what the hell was going on," the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.
"I didn't want them to take her," said the man, who didn't want to be named because he fears he'll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.
"I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her,
'Just stay there. Don't open, don't, shh, just stay quiet," he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears.

you know if you want to play connections or spelling bee so bad you can just look up “connections free” the thing abt the nyt’s only good output being their food and games sections is that both recipes and code are not-copywritable, you literally don’t have to go there

Should I go maximalist, or keep it minimalist? 👀

i'm especially looking for blouses, skirts, dresses, and good layering pieces! i don't wear pants or masc fashion. i'm not a very good sewist yet, but will happily take more advanced-level patterns for future goals, or for days of particular ambition and/or audacity

#sewing friends, since i've had good luck using the hashtag before: i'm attempting to enter my sewing era, as well as my "wearing cottagecore and/or renfaire-esque fits just out and about my daily life" era. does anyone have particular pattern recommendations?
