Slowing down because your soul is tired is not the same as quitting. Give yourself the grace to rest. Your vision is still in place.

NEW: The @nytimes confirms that ICE deliberately electronically "disappeared" tens of thousands of people in detention and ordered contractors to refuse to reveal where they're held to family or lawyers.

30% of all immigrants detained in ICE jails now have their location hidden.

PLEASE support QueensLink: A campaign to reactivate an old LIRR track to create a line from Rockaway Beach to Queens Blvd, giving us North-South connection. Also follow the IBX project: using freight track for a Jackson Heights/Ridgewood-ENY-Flatbush-Sunset Park line.

Everyone is bewildered as to why.

I have a theory.

Check the racial demographics of the bar exam takers whom she took points away from. This IS the Deep South. She didn’t even need to get paid off. Ppl are racist for free😭😭

[Alex Nunn @AlexNunn]

Wow. For years, an official in Arkansas allegedly tampered with bar exam scores, pulling points from some test takers and giving them to others.

This caused numerous failing exams to pass, and resulted in "at least one instance" where an otherwise passing exam fell below the requisite threshold.

BREAKING: In a big win for patients, CVS now plans to break itself up, splitting the $117 billion healthcare and pharmacy conglomerate.

By the first half of 2028 the CVS drugstore business will be separated into a new company, separate from the Aetna insurance unit and Caremark prescription benefits division.

The CEO of CVS says that that the Break Up Big Medicine legislation from Elizabeth Warren and Josh Hawley, as well as new state laws, are two reasons he is breaking up the company.

Audre Lorde said, “Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, ‘You can’t fight City Hall,’ is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless.”
