Absolutely! He's still doing quite well on the road, but I'd worry with that long of a trip.

In Portland, an ambulance was summoned to the ICE office to treat an injured protester (not clear how he was injured). But when the patient was loaded inside, ICE officers refused to let the ambulance leave and threatened to shoot the ambulance driver: www.wweek.com/news/2025/10...

Documents Allege a Federal Agent at Portland ICE Threatened to Shoot an Ambulance Driver

Feds delayed medics who had come to pick up an injured protester. Then, according to confidential incident reports, the agents became aggressive.

My dad took the train from Seattle to South Dakota this week, and I'm thoroughly enjoying his texts to me about the experience. He is LOVING it.

It was snowing as they passed thru Glacier National Park, apparently.

PEOPLE! There are LITERAL CBRN EXPERTS on this site who will tell you that the best thing you can do for tear gas or pepper spray is to just flush your eyes and face with water.

Any “home remedy” bullshit is just that: bullshit. It won’t help and can actually make things worse.

Spread THAT word.

I've got to figure out some way to lower my stress levels. It feels impossible to do right now, given everything. But my body is sending me some pretty big signs that I'm not doing okay.

Something has to give/change. I just have no idea how.

There are no merits. Using laser pointers against aviation is a fantastically bad idea, it will get someone killed and probably not who you want killed.

If caught and found guilty, the likelihood you will spend years in prison is high.

Get a grip, people.

Jake @jakeythesnakey.bsky.social · 1d

This is such an astoundingly bad idea that I kinda think it’s a false flag or an op of some sort

Merits aside, it is insanely easy to be caught if you do this and the punishment for doing this is much more severe than you’d guess.

Pinecone wars with the neighbor boys, shooting hoops in the dark, playing soccer in the neighbor's empty lot, backing the vw convertible out of the basement garage, summer night hikes to the hot springs...good memories.

What five events defined your childhood:

- sun, swimming, climbing & being barefoot
- getting a BMX for Christmas, and almost killing myself on it, on the daily.
- falling off the house roof lots.
- living the books I read, while playing

The end of federal enforcement of special ed laws. Some states - including MN - will likely be ok. But a lot of disabled kids in a lot of states are going to lose the education that federal law and decades of jurisprudence say they are owed.

Education Department wipes out special ed office in shutdown layoffs, union says

The Education Department laid off nearly everyone at the Office of Special Education and Rehabilitative Services.

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.
