at one point, this was the discussion point to use with republicans that could help them understand a little bit better *sigh* alas…
we spend less in taxes on a functioning social safety net than we’ll end up still having to spend to make up for the lack of one. poverty is a motherfucker & a pretty widespread issue in this country; when those working in healthcare are assholes about people trying to be healthy, it’s a bad look.

I’m asking everyone to vote for a new Mayor by Tuesday and rank all 3 of Omar Fateh, Dewayne Davis, and Jazz Hampton in whichever order you prefer. I’ve worked at City Hall for the last 4 years and from my personal experiences I believe the City desperately needs a new mayor.

"Instead of solving challenging problems, our governments have turned to fences that cut off necessary urban connections, and it amounts to an abdication of public obligation to people on foot." Abdication of public obligation, damn right.
I wrote about the should-be-illegal trend of fencing off sidewalks because poor people are nearby. www.minnpost.com/cityscape/20...
Using fencing to curb homelessness in the Twin Cities is an insult - MinnPost
Agencies and governments turn to fencing instead of actual solutions for problems related to people experiencing homelessness.

It doesn’t have to be this way. There’s one person ultimately responsible for the Police in Minneapolis and that’s Jacob Frey. He has demonstrated very clearly that he is not willing to hold Police accountable.

Minneapolis woman’s killing exposes gaps in how police investigate domestic violence
In the aftermath of a brutal assault, department leaders failed to assign an investigator to Mariah Samuels’ case. That’s not uncommon.

Also a reminder that the mayor has authority for MPD. Same mayor for past 8 years. Dismal performance in this area. Should be disqualifying for Frey on that alone. Vote Jazz - Omar - DeWayne any order you prefer for mayor please. Jacob needs to go.
The Minneapolis police response to having allowed Mariah Samuels to be murdered is to lie to elected officials and the media about it.

if only our modern would-be Pharaohs would embrace tradition and start drinking arsenic and mercury
Immortality is a child's answer to death anxiety, not a real thing with which humanity will ever have to contend. No king's alchemist ever granted him eternal life, and it isn't going to start happening now just because of Computer.

![Neurodivergent Research Processes
ADHD. ... [abbreviated opening to fit alt-text box]
The graveyard of half-finished projects on my computer hard drive rolled over when I agreed to write this chapter. Your day will come, I assure them. I'm just waiting for the perfect weekend in which I have no obligations and wake up inspired to write one of those data sets into a paper! When that happens, the draft pours forth in a satisfying frenzy of emphatically loud typing. Unstoppable. Is there any difference between a paper written in eight straight hours based on data that sat untouched for two years and steady and deliberate progress on a project over the same period of time? To the journal reader, no. To the spouse, friend, or coworker witnessing the hyperfocus wormhole, absolutely. What magic! Not a researcher, but a machine! Perhaps coveting dazzling efficiency. To me, guilt covers neglected ideas as green biofilm, thicker and slimier each time I remember having forgotten and still lack the motivation needed to open the file and start. No matter what gets finished, I do not feel prolific or even celebratory—I have poor object permanence. In press may as well be in a closed drawer or cabinet: as good as forgotten.
I can’t imagine spending a career studying one highly specific topic. I get bored. Or rather, I get distracted—I have variable attention (see Bertilsdotter Rosqvist et al., 2023a, 2023b; Hallowell & Ratey, 2021). What is as tantalizing as a new idea? It can make planning difficult. The proposal flows almost effortlessly. Data gathering is intoxicating—the only true novel information that exists in the world. As I said in middle school: science class was a misnomer—it, too, taught history. But where does one find the motivation to transcribe and code after conducting an interview? To revamp a rejected paper and reformat it for submitting to a new journal? There are so many steps between revelation and dissemination, each one treading through quicksand.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:fb3royociml6n3ku2l2vs2hd/bafkreiadrnfctffwcpmzbesqect6f632rkjnadh6ljq6dmdxykhgdll3py@jpeg)

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.
