I've seen a lot of leftists get very mad about this post, ranging from "oh you're just noticing NOW?" to the far worse take, which is "America has always been like this."
And I'm going to get into why this is both unhelpful and like, objectively false as a response to have to this sort of thing.

“We can’t be a country with a paramilitary secret police because then we would be a nation with a paramilitary secret police” is something my brain genuinely says to me. I need my brain to change as fast as my world and that’s not easy.

A man was just chased and arrested outside of the Broadview ICE facility in Chicago. When legal observers from the National Lawyers Guild asked why, an agent threatened to arrest them too.

Rift Wizard is a wonderful turn-based game with some interesting strategy to it. I disliked the sequel because it was a bit more mindless, but perhaps it's what you're looking for.

Colombian President Gustavo Petro's full post ordering an increase of import tariffs on U.S. goods, says he doesn't really like traveling to the U.S. because it's “a bit boring” and invokes the ancestors

Tomorrow is TDOR (Trans Day of Remembrance)
It's a day we set aside each year to honor the trans people who died in the past year (a large majority being from violent deaths)
Please understand it is not a holiday and please DO NOT wish anyone you know a "happy tdor"
More info below

I've haven't had a modern trick taker really grab me, but I grew up playing classic 52-card deck games like spades, euchre, bridge, etc, so I love the mechanism and all that it brings with it.
What would be the best of the best as far as trick takers in your eyes?

My most recent go to quick meal is ground lamb (Groc Out has it pretty cheap), sauteed with some onion and a ton of spices, then throw in some couscous and chicken broth, it cooks up very fast. Finish with feta and parsley. The bottom crisps up nice, it cooks in less than 20 min.

In a prior world, when burnings were more common, there were more pines and less fir, more oak and less maple. Perhaps they are trying to bring back Wilamette Valley Ponderosa as the top conifer?

Finally going to be calling Portland home again! It's been an awful year (although this part of Washington is very pretty), but I am very excited to get back to trains and community and late-night burritos

CRISPR? For all the hype around tech, there isn't much. Some medicine, some improvements in existing tech. Solar panels have improved.

A lot of Korean cuisine is fairly allergen-minimal. Definitely look into Maangchi as a website/youtube resource, Korean cuisine has a lot of side dishes that work well without much allergen risk at the very least.
