@ART_Alert Thanks for your response. Tbh, though, this is not just an issue now following last weekend’s storm. Believe it or not, it’s cold outside in the morning and night during late Fall and Winter. That’s why I registered a complaint with you all weeks ago.

[Matt Bakker @migrantologo]

@ART_Alert There have got to be better ways to deal with those problems than to lock bus travelers out of the building for important stretches (indeed the coldest stretches) of the day.

@BrendenNunesNBA lol, that's bad math. We haven't played 30 games yet, have we? Could it be that they're 1-11 when he fails to reach double digits? Kevin and Keegan making shots is the key

Toda mi solidaridad con @RaulRomero_mx frente a las amenazas de grupos fascistas.
Su trabajo es muy importante. Los sociólogos estamos a su lado.
Ojalá las autoridades lo estén también, para defender la libertad de investigar y los derechos humanos.

Huge victory in Arlington! Congrats to La ColectiVA, its community partners, and legal allies!!

[LaColectiVA703 @LaColectiVA703]

Folx, there’s still time to submit your comments and feedback on the County’s proposed “Communities of Arlington Protected Against Abuse by ICE” (CAPA) policy.

Help us get #ICEoutofArlington!

feedback is being solicited here: https://t.co/snuKYCyuCk.

[Matt Bakker @migrantologo]

Drawing on my experience working side-by-side with La Colectiva on this issue across the region in recent years, I wholeheartedly support their suggested responses to the County’s feedback request. Ending ALL voluntary cooperation with ICE is critical!!!

[Matt Bakker @migrantologo]

As a university professor working closely with undocumented youth in Arlington County, I can’t stress enough just how important this policy is. Please support and spread the word!!

On the passage of #FairfaxCounty's trust policy: “For 4 years, we marched, spoken out & stood up for human rights, & now the immigrant community breathes easier.” – @aguilarworks, CASA’s Virginia director. Onto building trust, not terrorizing families https://t.co/lBOF8rAqpI

@francisco_yira how’s this:

df %>%
mutate(across(var1:var3, ~ (. - mean(.[group == "a"])) / sd(.[group == "a"])))

@cwgNAS @Redistrict Penn Dept of State has a dashboard that shows remaining count. Hasn’t been updated since 9:15 tonight. But it was showing 763k uncounted mail ballots at that point. Since Biden’s cut the lead significantly in that time, we might be close to 500k now

[Matt Bakker @migrantologo]

@cwgNAS @woodbergs @tub_e_o @ConcernedCovid @Redistrict @Nate_Cohn I see no reason to believe this. Variation should be by county or precinct, not time of count. That’s different than AZ where they’re counting ballots that arrived on election day. in PA they’re counting ALL mail-ins now

[Matt Bakker @migrantologo]

@aaron_schwa actually, that’d give him 67.55%, but still … you’re being generous
