Chili con carne w/cheese; orange slices & pretzel balls on the side

On Monday, our volunteers handed out around 100 servings of chili con carne w/cheese, orange slices, & soft pretzel balls to our unhoused neighbors! Hot damn, that's a lot of chili!

We rely on donations to feed people

β€˜Andor’ Creator Tony Gilroy Gives the Interview He Couldn’t During Its Release While promoting his cautionary tale about fascism, Disney asked Gilroy to refrain from using the word. Nine months after it aired its finale, the 'Star Wars' series feels scarily prescient.

This interview gives two feelings: immense excitement at being a Star Wars fan and a desire to binge the series again this weekend.

We don't get Andor without Mandalorian, Tony said. But I think we also get glimpses of rich storytelling and adult outlooks in The Last Jedi, too.

At least half a dozen top Trump administration officials appear in the Jeffrey Epstein files The degree to which each individual was connected to Epstein varies significantly, from a single email to years of communications.

The President, two of his current Cabinet secretaries, his former strategist, his biggest donor, and his pending Fed Chair nominee are all in the files of a pedophile who ran a sex trafficking ring, while the attorney general and a former Cabinet secretary let him get away with it.

Seems kinda bad?

One of the purest examples of a moral panic in our time. A clinic that had years-long waitlists and required an average of 7 appointments before providing transition care smeared and shut down for being reckless.

With Ring, American Consumers Built a Surveillance Dragnet Ring's 'Search Party' is dystopian surveillance accelerationism.

NEW: Ring has introduced "Search Party", a horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for, in their commercial, a cute lost dog.

With Ring, US consumers are actually building a surveillance dragnet.

I'm hardly the first person to note this, but it's enormously instructive that our President and his followers saw the message "THE ONLY THING MORE POWERFUL THAN HATE IS LOVE" and understood it, correctly, as an attack on them

For those unaware about the significance of the light poles during the song El ApagΓ³n it’s because of the Puerto Rican power system and the constant black outs. There have been a lot of protests on the island over this.
