WIN: My office secured a victory against Mystic Valley Regional Charter School, making it clear they must comply with Public Records Law.
No school funded by taxpayer dollars is above the law.
Transparency is essential to democracy. I will continue the fight to ensure that right is upheld.

This is spreading all over Bluesky today and is wildly misleading--it is from eight months ago and it is in reference to working with NATO allies and arming Ukraine.

As a Cambridge pedestrian, looking forward to the day the promise that bikers who feel safe will exercise more care around pedestrians comes true. So far not so much.

I had a grad school friend who was scared of cooking with garlic once tell me, to demonstrate she was working on her issues, “the recipe called for a whole clove but I just used two teeth.”
I didn’t tell her she’d doubled what it called for.

"But unlike [Renee Good and Alex Pretti], Martinez was not protesting - he was driving by the scene of a road accident where ICE officers were helping to direct traffic."

That's fair -- he has some legit cameo appearances. He just doesn't participate in *plot* unless they really go in on Common Goal, and even then it's someone else's plot. (And if they were going to do Common Goal, they really should have saved Francois Arnaud for Eric.)

Maybe Jacob Tierney thinks the fan service is worthwhile, but it would take some contortion to do much with Kip. Partly because it’s boring! Scott and Kip got their HEA and even their best friend characters are kind of sick of celebrating them.

Basically trying to set up a need for fan service aimed at watchers of the show who haven’t read the books. But unless Common Goal is somehow in season two, which there’s no strong narrative reason for unless it’s like a 20-episode season, Kip isn’t really part of the story.

Rolling my eyes watching Robbie GK try to speak Kip into existence as an important part of the rest of the Game Changers series such that he should be a significant part of season two of Heated Rivalry.

Acosta not having been blackmailed makes it so much worse, too! It shows how power and wealth operate to protect people.

Georgia Teacher Is Killed After Teenagers’ Prank Goes Wrong
“This is a terrible tragedy, and our family is determined to prevent a separate tragedy from occurring, ruining the lives of these students,” Ms. Hughes added. “This would be counter to Jason’s lifelong dedication of investing in the lives of these children.”

Visiting kid playing with fidgets by @mostlybree.kitrocha.com: “so there’s a guy who just makes fidgets?” Me: “well, it’s a woman. She writes romance novels, organizes against Trump, & sells fidgets.” Other visiting kid: “you could 3D print these yourself.” First kid: “but these are anti-Trump.”

There was what I’m pretty sure was exactly that play structure at a playground two blocks from us until they tore it up a few months ago to upgrade the whole park.

The thing about Timothee Chalamet is that he has been trying to have it both ways, as on the one hand an Oscar-seeking Actor and on the other hand the kind of bro who dates a Jenner and craps on other art forms. And both iterations basically suck.

The Emotional Cost of Parental Deportation - JSTOR Daily
A study of US citizen children shows how immigration enforcement and family separation affect mental health and stability.
What effect does parental deportation (or the threat of it) have on U.S. citizen children? My latest at JSTOR Daily focuses on research into that question by Lauren Gulbas and Luis Zayas -- notably it's a 2017 article, so...everything is worse now.

I am not clicking on the link to find out the details of Markwayne Mullin "fingering the nostrils" of other people. I'm just not. You can't make me. Even if I kind of wonder what "fingering nostrils" means.

PS Quick reminder not to call electeds who don't represent you. I know it's tempting, but their staffers will literally throw away the lil message they start taking down when they realize you're not a constituent. Literally-literally.

This is amazing; am watching on C-SPAN3. If she had a staff member who liked her, that person would've walked up to her 15 minutes ago to whisper in her ear to get out of there.
But no one is protecting her. Any one of these attendees can break the news to her on live tv.
