Harvey Milk is of course the most famous/consequential victim. But Dan White, ex-cop and city Supervisor, also killed Mayor Moscone. Diane Feinstein, prez of board of Supes, had to tell the city of their deaths, and immediate start her new job as acting mayor.

So anyway...yeah.
Aside from everything else, Dan White killing fellow city supervisor and the mayor is a horrific act of workplace violence. cool cool

Frankly disgusted that the Biden administration has decided to stick with Trump’s horrifically low number of refugees (which are not the same as asylum seekers). motherjones.com/politics/2018/…
The refugee and asylum programs are completely different. Trump’s cuts to refugees meant corresponding cuts to agencies and NGOs serving them. This perpetuates a lack of capacity there, which again, does not intersect with border asylum capacity.

Thinking about this a lot lately. Cops are fed a false narrative about the likelihood of ambushes, which jacks them up. And yet it's also true that American public is more armed and less regulated than almost anywhere else. Mix in racism...such a horrible recipe.
Sane reforms would include: Armed police responses reserved to actual threat to life. End bullshit traffic stops and other encounters rife with bias. Require way more stringent training for cops—emphasizing deescalation—and same for way-better regulated gun license holders.
We've done a slew of stories on how police departments embraced "warrior training" and how deadly that has been: motherjones.com/politics/2017/…

Hike today to Mammoth (aka Sunset) Rocks, Near Bodega Bay, where these giant rock outcroppings are subbed smooth in places by, so the experts say, mammoths. (The ones in the ocean, full of birds)

People should, IMO, not loose confidence in J&J or any of the vaccines. This reaction is *extremely* rare, if a direct linkage at all. Hopefully the pause will tell us exactly how rare, who might be at slight risk, and ⬇️ what to do/not do if reaction happens.
This is a helpful visualization of how low the risks are, by @pbump washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/…
Not to diminish things but a reminder that things that also can expose people to risks of blood clots are flying, and taking the pill. And yet we do because the risks are low, and precautions or alternate means can be utilized.
