At what point exactly will the behavior of the American Gestapo become a true national flashpoint?
This is actually the subject of my next missive, out in a few minutes.

ICE sprayed a one-year-old in the face with pepper spray.
The child and parents are US citizens, but that doesn't even matter.
These monsters pepper-sprayed a baby.
We cannot allow ICE to continue this behavior, and they aren't going to reform themselves.

Weird to go to bed reading about the Brown shooting. Waking up to news about the Bondi Beach shooting and to be heading to bed reading that Rob Reiner and his wife were apparently stabbed to death.
I hope everyone affected finds some kind of peace.

What a world to go to bed thinking about one mass shooting and wake up to news of another, a targeted hate crime, at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney. And also in the video where an actual hero, Ahmed al Ahmed chooses not to kill one of the terrorists.

I finally got my hands on a copy of #HelloSunshine by @keezyyoung.bsky.social . (It kept selling out at my normal shop). It's so good, Keezy! Not only is it beautiful and well crafted, but the writing is great! I loved how the talk bubbles really helped convey the state of things.

A tiny trial in New York has shown that personalized mRNA vaccines can provoke massive, lasting immune responses against pancreatic cancer, even as sweeping federal cuts now threaten the fragile labs required to produce them.

This was the birth of the modern anti-democratic GOP. The SCOTUS stepped in and stopped the recount because conservative influencers convinced their base that Democrats were rigging the recount and triggered threats and violence; the “Brooks Brothers Riot” was a rough draft for January 6.
25 years ago today, SCOTUS elected George W Bush president of the United States by blocking completion of a voting canvass in Florida. A subsequent canvass by the Associated Press showed that Bush's rival, Al Gore, had won the race in Florida—and thus the contest for the presidency—by 700 votes.
