Upstate New York high school special ed teaching assistant. Eternally optimistic pessimist
I majored in sociology-I don’t remember all the studies-but I do remember the studies where people behind the glass would shock the people on the other side who could not see them. I’ve always hated Halloween because of the masks, show your face, own it
Kevin M. Kruse on ICE and masks:
"While they might not technically act with immunity, ICE agents are certainly acting with impunity these days. And that comes less from them having the cover of law and more with them having a literal covering of face masks that give them anonymity."
As I noted here, ICE's masks have given them impunity to inflict harm without consequences, just like the Klan.

And just like the Klan, when they're unmasked by new laws, they'll be weakened across the board.

It was kind of annoying to have friends with 0s or 9s in their phone numbers.
Without revealing your actual age,what's something you remember that if you told a younger person they wouldn't understand?

The fact that I even had to check this tells you everything you need to know about this country right now. It’s not real but it sure didn’t seem impossible

We are so much less-he got that part right
Trump: "I don't want to hear about the affordability, because right now we're much less. If you look at energy, we're getting close to $2 a gallon gasoline."

Better yet, don’t film/take photos at all
Quick reminder for Saturday: please do not post photos of others' faces online without their express permission.

AI facial recognition is a tool of this regime. Don't make anyone else a target unless they're prepared to take the risk and consent.

That’s why I’m sharing this story—and why I’m asking for your help.

So, if you can:
- Share this post
- Tag the FDA and your reps in Congress
- Contact your reps and ask them to urge the FDA to reconsider its decision

(And if you're a journalist interested in writing about elamipretide, DM me!)

Nothing he does is good for America! Sent you (another!) email today. What are you doing about felon47’s blatant disregard for human rights and the law??!!
More uncertainty, madness, and lunacy from Trump.

Trump is flip flopping yet again on his tariff scheme, leaving businesses, consumers, and the American people confused.

This is not good for working families. And this is not good for America.

In a small upstate restaurant in a small upstate town last evening I saw someone with a @meidastouch.com sweatshirt. Told him I liked it, got an acknowledgment. I felt like one of the cool kids :)
