I know everything is on fire right now but we have to call about this, we’re already calling about everything else, just add it to the pile. The grief I feel rn is indescribable but to them it’s just any given weekday.

The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis.
My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives?
So I picked up my camera 👇
no such thing as cringe in catastrophes
brokenhearted sincere humility is and always has been the way
With another No Kings coming up, a reminder that irony and coolness will never save us. Cringe is good. www.liberalcurrents.com/cringe-is-go...
We are SO excited to be hosting the official #NoKings accessible rally!

This is now the LOST generation for all doctoral research, from engineering to public health, from literature to psychology, from religion to economics. Some programs will suffer more than others, but this is a tremendous loss to the future. This is ALL on #RussellVought #DonaldTrump #JDVance.
