Today is the most-Miami holiday worth celebrating: Croqueta Day. hrld.us/2oakiNa
A year ago, the city of Miami and the Miami-Dade Commission showed unusual solidarity in recognizing the spirit animal of Miami food, the croqueta, by passing resolutions naming Oct. 1 Croqueta Day. hrld.us/2p1qUxN
So how can you celebrate Croqueta Day today? Here are some ideas:
Go on a croqueta tour hrld.us/2p1B1Tn
Order a croqueta cake hrld.us/2mCYGZn
Visit a croqueta bar hrld.us/2nj5Geo
Or even eat some croquetas inside of a chocolate chip cookie (if you dare) hrld.us/2p1xBQr

Marie Jefferson has scraped out a living for 20 years in Little Haiti running a botanica — a distinctly Haitian combination of variety store and vodou dispensary. (THREAD)
Now, at age 62, Jefferson is struggling to hold on to her business. “Rent is up high. … I feel stress, terrible. I don’t have enough money.” hrld.us/2oCOikX
What happened? Investors, lured by cheap land prices, purchased the strip of shops on Northwest Second Avenue. They cleared out all the tenants, including Jefferson, another botanica and a fried-chicken eatery, and renovated the building.

Spread word: my student & friend #Tavares Calloway was coerced to confess to 5 murders after #Miami police told him his own family was in immediate danger unless he falsely confessed to help them flush out the real killer. He was sentenced to die. docs.google.com/document/d/e/2…
#Tavares was 19 when 11 officers interrogated him for 18 hours w/o an attorney present. Police admitted to repeatedly lying to him, saying they'd found his DNA/fingerprints at the scene.

In fact, NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE OR EYEWITNESS ties him to the crime.
The SOLE EVIDENCE against #Tavares is a confession he signed when police told him his family was in grave & imminent danger. After 18 hrs of questioning, police knew he was protective of his family & deeply devout.

I would like to say something about the #Miami MLS proposal.

Firstly, forget the merits, there's a big problem.

The process.

I do not trust it.

Residents must make a final decision on a complex multi-million dollar real estate transaction.

1/
Thus far, the @MiamiHerald's @joeflech was stonewalled when requesting the public records to report on it during the last month.

The vote is Thursday.

Then it goes to a referendum where competing groups will dump millions of dollars into lobbying a plan nobody has seen yet.

2/
Residents of @CityofMiami have seen the failure of the backwards approach to business time & time again.

Not just from failed developments.

But from MLS very specifically, who has already announced another stadium deal with the City of Miami in 2015

So... I JUST FOUND A CAT THAT IS NOT MINE AND IT HAS HAD BABIES UNDER MY BED.
Trying to adjust to the catshit crazy reality of going upstairs to grab a jumper but instead finding a cat and 4 kittens. Am I dad now?
Paternal instincts kicking in. Overwhelmed with feels. Don't know how to deal.
