so many people have headed calls to move off Google to places like proton. Actual useful advice is that you try to keep as much sensitive info offline as possible.

unified theory of the timberwolves: every time you feel like they've gotten back on track, so do they. Which directly causes them to regress again

Separation of powers has been the fulcrum for a number of highly significant judicial interventions in recent decades. And, in the very same period, our vaunted system of "checks and balances" has on its own terms failed and bottomed out. What are we supposed to do with this.

Minneapolis Park Board puts moratorium on evictions The action is the first in Minnesota as a result of the ICE crackdown. (And yes, the Park Board owns rental homes.)

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board is suspending evictions for its rental properties in response to the ICE surge.

It's the first local government body in Minnesota to enact a rent moratorium because of immigration enforcement.
