Then came the intimidation.
While preparing this disclosure, Berulis found a drone surveillance photo of himself taped to his front door with a threatening note.
This was just a few days ago.

thought crimes are now illegal in the united states. it’s truly baffling that their anyone was ever convinced by the right being pro “free speech”. anyone who gave any credence to that argument is a rube
Imagine trying to deport someone for their "expected beliefs"

Comparison of the root system of prairie grass vs agricultural.
The removal of these root systems is what lead to the dust bowl when drought arrived...

thinking of one of abraham lincoln's great quotes this morning:
"As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy."

Kseniia Petrova, a Russian scientist at Harvard Medical School, was detained at Logan Airport after returning from France and sent to an ICE detention in Louisiana, The Insider reports.
A big critic of Putin and the war in Ukraine, she may now be deported to Russia.

ICE kidnapping people off the streets over op eds, anyone perceived as a "gang member" shipped to a hard labor camp without any legal proceedings... It's not even a little subtle what's happening. I'm just devastated beyond words

“One young man sobbed when a guard pushed him to the floor. He said, ‘I’m not a gang member. I’m gay. I’m a barber.’ I believed him. *** He “began to whimper,” as his head was roughly shaved, “folding his hands in prayer as his hair fell.” He “asked for his mother & cried as he was slapped again.”

As a VA, gamer, & close friend of devs, I’m sick of seeing workers treated as disposable. Colleagues have been suddenly fired, uncredited, & bonuses rescinded. Canceled games meant resume gaps. Workers’ passion & labor deserve respect and pay that reflect gaming’s record profits! uvw-cwa.org

Really the only thing that sucks about writing is that you have to read over what you've written ad nauseum, which invariably makes it seem like what you've written is total dogshit.

I write. In tense times, it helps. What do people do, if they don’t write? Do they gamble? Play chess? Drink heavily? Exercise violently? Knit? I don’t know, can’t imagine. Maybe all that matters is how one feels after. Have I gained, or lost? I have been lost while writing, but I have never lost.

Be kind to others. There's going to be a dearth of kindness but that's one thing they can't take away from us.

My body is not a temple its a deep space station occupying both a strategically pivotal location and also near an actual (celestial) temple.
