People: Look Skadden I know you’re notoriously evil, just like central casting evil, but would you consider not being evil this one very specific way in the best interests of the evil industry and future opportunities for evil?
Skadden: You . . . You found a new way for us to be evil?

What I'm going to remember about this year is Pepé running lead at 11yrs old for almost 700 miles, across what many called the worst trails they ever ran.

There is a great race, called the #iditerod, where men & women compete together to cross over 1,000 miles in honor of a life saving run of diptheria vaccine TO SAVE LIVES. Raise a toast to @quincemountain.bsky.social , a trans person who valiantly competed this year.

There will be time for other thoughts and critiques, but for now I'm focusing on two - love and pride for Q, Pepe, Leap, Opal, Yotam, Waller, Whip, Bob, Kiwi, and the rest of the team (sorry, I can't find the roster right now). Rest well and travel safe. New adventures await. #mushersky 6/6

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

![A Facebook post by Lindsey Bivens Granados from 11:30 AM today:
TODAY in the WCJC from an attorney friend of mine (who has given me permission to share this info, sans her name):
I had just pled someone with an ICE hold to misdemeanor larceny. Both myself and the judge went over the consequences of the plea in depth (and to be fair he has bigger problems out of state). Dane and I were standing outside in the 301 bench area talking about it (not screaming) and about how we are scared and everything is really difficult right now. A white man in a gray hoodie lunged at us and showed his badge and demanded Dane and I take the conversation somewhere. I said "no, I'm an attorney." He we NEED to go somewhere else. I ran into the courtroom and said "Judge Parker this ICE agent is trying to tell me I can't have a conversation in the hallway." Dane stood with me. She [the judge] called the agent up and basically ripped into him and said I have a 1st amendment right to talk to my best friend. He said I was screaming in the hallway (I was not) and didn't like that I was cussing (I probably was). The agent asked to talk to me in the hallway, and said he just didn't think that it was professional that I was cussing. The deputies came out and protected us. The agent kept going and Dane told him the conversation was over.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v6v4s3nvtnsrdd5gm6iejxck/bafkreicfxtgborgjr5pm6l5ogtqk3oya4zfyeibol7ra2c6romokvokyfe@jpeg)

Killing prisoners is always wrong, whether it’s a heedless murder like this or a judicially sanctioned execution with a fully exhausted set of appeals. The state ought to be responsible for protecting people it has by force reduced to a defenseless captivity.

Okay apparently #horsesky is a thing: everyone meet my beautiful old man, Nova.
He’s a 21 y/o OTTB and he’s done every single thing I’ve ever asked of him, but always in his own way. We’ve been a team for 10 years now and I’m so happy to share my life and my bank account with him ✨
