I've been here 24 hours, but already with what I've seen, well, I genuinely believe we're going to win. People here are well aware that what happens here impacts the entire country, that it sets the tone for resistance. ICE is angry, ICE is terrified, of how deeply unpopular it is.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Origin story

Read it when I was thirteen; gave me the tools I needed to survive. Ten years ago, I made a guest appearance in John Higgs's intro to the new edition.

Circus Piddly at Waterloo by the Old Vic is very funny, super skilled and totally charming (what other circus has tricks with custard creams and tight gaffertape walking?) Go with children or without.

My actual "take" (as they say) on this story, other than that it's the most hilarious way possible to get a scoop, is that it sure looks like they're violating record-preservation laws and that every open-government group should be taking them to court.

Someone at Facebook is trying to silence me.

SpaceX+Tesla+Boring+Neuralink have 1406 patents collectively. Elon’s name is only on 14, less than 1%.
