Can someone explain to me how Sheehy isn’t in jail for assault or battery or whatever the legal term is? Is he endowed with the powers of law enforcement?

One thing that irks me: people keep calling the folks on the streets in Minneapolis protestors. They are not generally there to protest, they are there to observe and document. This is the product of organizing and mutual aid. It is telling that these acts of citizenship are seen as protest!

Here is an example of terrible headline writing. Instead, it should say something like β€œVoting in Ohio is needlessly difficult and AG LaRose does nothing to fix the problem.”

I cancelled the @nytimes.com recently and they wanted to know the reason. Exhibit 1. WAY too much of this stuff.

Laissez Fair conservatives in my life think this is far superior to slightly longer wait times in countries with socialized medicine.

I saw it live in, I believe, 4th grade with my classmates. We didn’t know what exactly happened for a few minutes. I was more affected in the following days but it sparked a passion to understand how things fail, which led to a now-abandoned, career in engineering.
