Genuinely the only thing keeping me going—but it really is keeping me going—is how good it is to see people link arms and push for this to end.
I cannot stop thinking about how much love people can have for their neighbors, and how much work and money is poured into breaking that love apart.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

If you are in America and can donate blood, please do so. The US already has a shortage of blood supply for transfusions, and if things go hot the hospitals and field medics are going to need much more.

In 1993 small-c conservatives in the United States were aghast at what they saw as federal armed brutality at the Waco siege.
The contrast with now is striking.

If you happened to find yourself with a free day in Bergen, bearing in mind that both funds and mobility are to an extent limited. What would be your top 3 things to do?
N.B. I have no interest in the Troll museum.

I have to drop a package off at one of the Colleges this morning. In olden times I would have driven there, parked in a nearby side-street and done it in 10 minutes or less. Am now staring at a map trying to work out whether I can find any free parking less than a 50 minute walk away. [sigh]

Lots of good signs here, but I have to confess my favorite is a rebel alliance where they replaced the red insignia with blue and the Minnesota loon.

Some thoughts:
1. The deadline for nominating a person or group for the Nobel Peace Prize is Feb. 1.
2. History professors are qualified nominators.
3. The people of Minnesota have been awe-inspiringly peaceful in the face of state violence.
4. He would be so mad.
