There was an old tweet that stuck with me: "If you can easily walk to the coffee shop but your barista has a one hour commute, you don't live in a walkable 15 minute city; you live in a theme park"
as someone who lives nextdoor to both supportive housing and public housing, i need people to understand that the best locations for both are going to be the central neighborhoods in a metropolitan area, where there is easy and reliable access to services and jobs.

For everyone saying this doesn't matter because ICE doesn't follow the law:
1. They want you to think knowing your rights makes no difference when we know for a fact it does. How do we know that? Because Homan himself said people knowing their rights cost then hundreds of arrests in Chicago.

If you are stopped by Trump's ICE goons, or any other kind of cops:
I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT.
Memorize it.
And don't let ICE in without a JUDICIAL warrant. No, administrative warrants don't count.

And yet the stock price of the company that makes Revlimid, pharma giant Bristol Myers Squibb, jumped nearly 4% today... 😐
