I've made the same observation. We're the only ones at fault. Other countries with authoritarians are victims but not us.
Also, just like, not everyone can vote

I am noticing the folks who say that don’t say the same about Russia and manage to have more nuance about Russian folks who definitely despise their government but lack the means or privilege to “just leave” or whatever is the action. We are not a monolith and this is an authoritarian playbook.

"Thanks for letting us crash", says my brother about he and the man he showed up with in the middle of the night while I was asleep.
I let him crash. I don't know who this Paul person is.

We need to stop shaming parents for having crying babies because the way they resolve it is to play horrible videos on an iPad with the volume on and I find a crying baby infinitely more tolerable, plus I think it's better for them long term than an iPad

Casa Yari had to close not too long ago due to some leasing issues, and they're coming back as well, to Division St.
When you have a spot people really love I think it does make it easier since people are keeping an eye on when they can come back to patronize. Best of luck to them

This thread is about Evanston, but this has also been going on without reprieve in Elgin, Aurora, and other Chicago suburbs—a metro area of nearly 10 million people.
Some context to the viral videos:
Around 9am Friday, ICE/CBP *encircled* several square miles of a safe suburb and *stormed* it using multiple units.
They were in cars, on foot in alleys & gangways, and in helicopters. They demanded papers, threatened residents, pointed guns, kidnapped people.

The irony is neither do a lot of ice agents. They have to keep the mask on so their colleagues won't take them
From the New Republic: "ICE agents kidnapped a U.S. citizen in Chicago who had just finished working a double shift because she didn’t “look” American to them." newrepublic.com/post/201745/...
Surely this is illegal and should be stopped.

It's strange that people some people will bad faith argue that a massive group of people getting together to denounce injustice can't be a good organizing tool. Where do you think you meet and recruit people to concrete and local actions? That's your audience for a bigger impact
5 million people showed up for the Chicago Cubs World Series parade, if we’re doing a headcount of meaningless gatherings.
The CRM was disruptive and effective, but your a little Lib parades are nice too

What I said is that No Kings is much larger than the civil rights movement, and by the normal metric for "larger" - the number of participants - that is absolutely, incontestably true. It doesn't matter if that hurts your feelings or doesn't fit into your perception of US history. It's simply true.

I will say this about urbanist Twitter, it really did convince me that I should drive less and rely on other forms of transit. Not quite ready to be a serious cyclist yet, but that "you're not *in* traffic, you *are* traffic" line made a lot of sense

A lot of cope from people who can't back into a space
if you cannot safely see to drive your car the answer is not to rely on back up cameras. You should only drive a car you can handle. Your stupid truck is too big.
what's with people backing into parking spaces? just like to spend a little bit of your day inconveniencing everyone around you for a little bit each day?

I had a professor who said the point of going to college was to go to class and do the reading. He was really upset by the thought of students just bullshitting their essays and not actually reading because what was the point of that? What was that supposed to teach us?
i just find this so bizarre. searching through texts and doing the reading for myself is how i actually think through ideas! trying to put together a sentence is how i figure out what i actually want to say!
