"If Trump wants to help address violence in Chicago, Da’mari Hayes, 16, says he should look to its root causes."

“'Only thing people out here need is a little bit of help,' Hayes says. 'You’re gonna cut crime out with helping the people that’s less fortunate. That’s the only way you’re gonna do that without causing more crime and more pain and more suffering.'”

People are setting up Meshtastic nodes in Florida in anticipation of hurricanes.

I haven't noticed any coordinated nets around me, but it seems like it could be something good to have a weekly check in to get people used to using the system in a coordinated fashion.

A lot of people are amateur radio operators, so it wouldn't be hard to establish with some notice on the 0 channel.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker says Feds who violate the law will be charged in Illinois courts, where they cannot be pardoned by Trump.

"If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me, not time or political circumstance, from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."

If the National Guard shows up and nothing is going on, they will rake leaves and help with gardening.

Grand jury nullification is a great thing to counter Trump's invasion of DC.

I was watching Star Trek, TNG, and saw "The Big Goodbye" (S1E12).

I always enjoy the holodeck episodes. This was a fun one with Picard's trip back to 1941.

However, I am curious who this actor is? She isn't listed in the credits and is not on the IMDB page.

It also makes me think about how many extras there are in Star Trek.

I keep having intrusive thoughts that someone is going to set up an AI arbitration forum and the Supreme Court is going to allow it to be used if the parties agree to it.

Everyone will end up agreeing to it because the terms and conditions for everything are hidden in click-throughs.

What are the odds that when Putin and Trump meet in Alaska, Putin will trick Trump into giving back Russian America ("The 47th Oblast") in exchange for a peace deal to be determined at a later date?

"It's got a 47 in the name, Mr. Trump!"

Trains are the best. I can scroll the Internet while going back home!

This is sad.

Anh-Thu Nguyen crashed and died near Indianapolis, trying to fly solo around the world for the second time.

She was the 10th woman to fly solo around the world. She was a Purdue graduate.

"If you're down and confused
And you don't remember who you're talking to
Concentration slip away
Because your baby is so far away"

"Well there's a rose in a fisted glove
And the eagle flies with the dove
And if you can't arrest the one you want, honey
Arrest the one you're with."

ICE is disappearing local cops:

From the article: “The Old Orchard Beach Police Department was never officially informed about Evans’ detention ..."

I predict Trump is going to lose the contemplative Catholic vote. The diocese where I am is holding migrant masses for immigrants. The Prayers of the Faithful include a statement of the need to treat immigrants fairly. Priests are accompanying individuals to immigration courts for hearings to keep them from being snatched by masked men.

Evolve's monthly rent is probably more than the mortgage where I live.

If only I had bought student housing when I attended IU back in the day, instead of paying rent to a landlord.

I was only making $3.35 an hour at the time, while attending classes, so I had limited funding. 🤔

You know who never had AI or a drive thru?

Phil's Kastle Hamburgers!

I drank coffee here several mornings when I rode with someone to the Port of Chicago up the street. Security would only let the driver in, so I waited at the counter, drank coffee, and talked with the wait staff.

I ate a burger for breakfast once because it was a burger place. It was pretty decent. The patty was pre-made -- not a smash burger style.

I think covid caused this place to shut down and never re-open.

Trump will steal anything he can get his hands on, including the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 football trophy and a medal.

I read the headline below a little too quickly and thought it said immigration agents were shooting through roofs.

ICE officers smash a US citizen and disabled veteran's car window, pull him out and disappear him into a Trump concentration camp under orders from Steven Miller to round up thousands daily. George Retes' family cannot find him despite calling police.
