"The way some of these other immigrants are getting treated in our country right now is a travesty and a disgrace... I think what’s going on in our country — what we’re doing to some of these amazing immigrants, is really unfortunate and it’s really sad." - Charles Barkley on CBS

Yeah cargo bikes are amazing 🚲🚲🚲. We could see the Cambridge linear path from our old apartment and over the last five years we’ve seen the number of cargo bikes increase significantly (now it’s closed for repairs).

“Just got an ebike - holy shit”

Tons of e-bikes at a park

🤯 It’s really, really crazy how much e-bikes have transformed life (especially for families with young kids!) in just 3-4 years. The safer streets and bike lanes that Somerville and our neighbors have been been creating are such a profound public good.

An mRNA treatment for PANCREATIC CANCER was in trials, among many other uses. Choosing to end this research is choosing to sentence millions to an early, painful death

This guy listens to Tupac

“We always seem to have money for war. But not to feed the poor.”

Regardless of whether it’s all talk, when the leader of our country expresses plainly genocidal intent, everyone has to do something.

For citizens of all political stripes, it means rejecting this madness. For Congress, it means taking action to rein him in. Now.

Next week is @agbt.bsky.social GM and #spatialbiology will be featured by over two dozen speakers! Here is a speaker snapshot featuring Miranda Orr, PhD @orrlaboratory.bsky.social and Nicolas Fernandez, PhD @cornhundred.bsky.social @broadinstitute.org #agbt26 @wendyvlieks.bsky.social

Murphy on Bovino: "That was a bone-chilling interview. I was shaking while I was listening to it, in large part bc it takes just an unbelievable amount of gall to lie to the American public. Everybody saw that video ... it should freak the public out that the Trump administration lies this easily"

Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

NBA star Tyrese Halliburton speaks out

Protester in Minneapolis just before disappearing in gas: "Fuck you! Stop. Damn! I'm 70 years old and I'm fuckin' angry!"

Every person taking videos of these atrocities is a national hero. Full stop.

“Freedom is not free. We have to work at it. Nurture it. Protect it. Even sacrifice for it.”

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

there is not one right way to feel and process what's happening on this planet - we're currently living through unprecedented and unconscionable moments all day every day.

I can’t believe they shot a VA nurse

Walz: Minnesota's justice system will have the last word on this.

As I told the white house in no uncertain terms this morning, the federal government cannot be trusted to lead this investigation. The state will handle it. Period.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

Really hard to look at this and all the other examples of bravery and kindness from ordinary people in this moment not think also of the tremendous cowardice exhibited over the past year by some of the richest, most well-protected people in business, media and politics

AOC: They need 10 Democratic votes in the Senate to pass, continued unfettered ICE funding with no guardrails. Regardless of where you are in the Democratic party, this moment proves that the status quo cannot stand

I would implore my Democratic colleagues in the senate to vote no

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him.

The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

Mamdani: "The cost of childcare will no longer discourage young adults from starting a family, because we will deliver universal childcare for the many by taxing the wealthiest few"

Bernie Sanders publicly swears in Zohran Mamdani as NYC mayor

My tweet from 2023: I asked if it was offensive to eat a Pop-Tart in front of the @PopTartsBowl mascot and then its handler yelled out "ITS THEIR DREAM" and then the mascot grabbed a Pop-Tart out of my hand and started force-feeding it to me while making soft grunting noises. Picture of me being fed a pop tart by a Pop tart

Happy Pop-Tarts Bowl Day to all who celebrate
