38. Once they finally took me to the medical center, the nurse took my temperature. She said "you need to take that thing off your head" and took off my hejab without asking my permission. I told her you can't take off my hejab and she said this is for your health. After a few minutes I put my hejab back on. But they did nothing to treat my asthma and gave me a few ibuprofen.
39. I had a third asthma attack at the Louisiana facility. Again, this happened in the cell and other woman knocked on the window to get the attention of the officers. I was told that the nurse would come to the cell to see me. She took me outside for a short bit and told me that it was all in my mind. She finally took me to the medical center but I was not treated for my difficulty breathing. The nurse left the room and didn't answer my questions
40.I had a fourth asthma attack on Wednesday March gth around noon. I used my inhaler and waited for it to pass. I was in pain and very scared but I didn't ask to go to the medical center because I don't feel that they address my medical needs.
41. I don't feel safe at the medical center because of my prior experiences there.
They complain when I go there and speak to me in an insulting and condescending manner. They also write information in my medical records that is not accurate. The doctor and nurses there are rude and uncaring.
NEW: Rümeysa Öztürk says she's had 4 painful asthma attacks in ICE custody, and not only is her asthma going untreated but a nurse tore off her hijab, saying, "You need to take that thing off your head." www.aclum.org/sites/defaul...

Michigan Dem voter here. Big fan of Buttigieg. The Michigan democrats’ obsession with seniority is at odds with voters’ appetite for more progressive candidates. We need competitive primaries so the voters can actually choose—not party elites.

Look, I am just a small town scholar of mass murder, so let me ask a simple, naive question: And then what?

Fire Ecology (WILDFIRES & INDIGENOUS FIRE MANAGEMENT) Mega Encore with Gavin Jones & Amy Christianson
Ologies with Alie Ward · Episode
This was the perfect thing to listen to tonight to help me make sense of our world on fire. If you’re not feeling science-y, the last 15 minutes is spooky-hopeful with a Cormac McCarthy cameo.

I've just been informed that the New York Times has privately confirmed the authenticity of the Luigi Mangione manifesto I published, per internal company chat leaked to me. They just refuse to say so publicly.

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.
Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC
