“Eighty-five percent of violent coalitions are led by females seeking to keep males in check, demonstrating that their ferocity is clearly functional: to prevent them from becoming like chimpanzees. In some communities, females win 100% of conflicts, showing that their dominance is structural.”

I have seen them a lot around DC and they were all either standing, walking, getting coffee, or saying hello to kids. I’ve heard multiple stories of horrible shit done by ICE and nothing at all done by national guard.
I’m opposed to Trump deploying National Guard in the streets of DC. I think it’s a bad approach undertaken for dishonest ends. But my impression is that (unlike ICE) most if not all NG have behaved professionally and are not the ones to blame for a bad policy.

worth noting that there have been no reported violent assaults w/a gun near 17th & I since 2018, and no homicides from 2008 on (the publicly available data only go back to 1/1/2008). This is not a dangerous area–there was no reason for them to be there. (data from crimecards.dc.gov/homicides:cr...)
one thing we *can* conclude at this point — those two national guards would not have been shot if trump had not abused his power to deploy them to DC

There’s a wild story playing out on Great Lakes ship watching and coastal Facebook groups right now.
There’s a guy with a homemade house boat who’s attempting to traverse the lakes.
The boat is called Neverlanding and it set sail from Windsor, ON. It appears he has 1-2 50hp motors.

If the first thing your Fight Club does is leak to the press that you have a Fight Club, you don’t have a technical Fight Club because even people who haven’t seen Fight Club know the first rule of said Fight Club.
Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

You know how there are some historical reenactment museum areas where you can go and see people dressed old timey churning butter and making horseshoes? There should be one that's a bar and kids can go listen to reenactors complain about their city's sports teams from different decades
