Two months into his pontificate, a man named Robert Prevost picked up the phone from the Vatican and called his bank in South Chicago. He wanted to update the phone number on his account.
The teller asked the standard security questions, and he answered every one of them. Then her screen flagged his file: any further changes had to be made in person, at the branch, with a photo ID.
Coming in person would not be possible, he told her, in the polite tone of a man who knew the answer before he asked the question. The teller apologized.
He paused, then asked: “Would it matter to you if I told you I’m Pope Leo?”
She hung up on him. thelettersfromleo.com/p/would-it-mat…

Despite hundreds of cops, dozens upon dozens of police vans, three Israeli inspired surveillance drones and multiple other units, NYPD still doesn’t believe it’s not enough.
Officers have completely grid lock this area for the synagogue to host a stolen land sale auction.

Car Brain is what leads people to commit and/or justify antisocial behavior involving a car -- even behavior they would otherwise condemn.

“Both religion and science require a belief in God. For believers, God is in the beginning, and for physicists He is at the end of all considerations… To the former He is the foundation, to the latter, the crown of the edifice of every generalized world view.”

I cannot seem to do the things I did
Easily & unproblematically
In the history from which I have slid
(I miss how I lived less dramatic'lly)

Hace 70 años, una mujer descubrió la estructura del ADN.
Pero 2 hombres de Cambridge robaron su trabajo y ganaron el Premio Nobel.
Ella fue borrada de la historia y murió de cáncer.
🧵 Aquí está cómo el mayor robo en la ciencia enterró el nombre de Rosalind Franklin en la historia…

The United States has the largest prison population on earth. Not per capita. Total. More people in cages than China. More than Russia. More than every "authoritarian" state it condemns in its annual human rights reports. 1.8 million people. Disproportionately Black. Disproportionately poor. Disproportionately from the zip codes with the worst schools, the fewest jobs, the most abandoned infrastructure. This is presented as a "criminal justice system." It functions as a labor system. Prison labor, paid between 13 cents and $1.15 an hour in most states, produces goods for McDonald's, Walmart, Victoria's Secret, Whole Foods, and the United States military. The 13th Amendment, which abolished slavery, contains an exception clause: "Except as punishment for crime." That exception has never been closed. It has been expanded. The plantation did not disappear. It received a different name and a legal foundation.

“It took many years of vomiting up all the filth I'd been taught about myself, and half-believed, before I was able to walk on the Earth as though I had a right to be here."

Crime in New York City continues to fall to historic levels:
➡️ Fewest murders ever recorded through the first four months of the year — and for the month of April
➡️ Major crime down 9.5%
➡️ Shooting incidents and victims down double digits compared to last April
➡️ Retail theft in April plunged nearly 18% citywide
This progress is driven by our precision policing strategy: targeting illegal guns, concentrating officers in the places driving violence, and building cases against the crews responsible.
The men and women of the NYPD are executing that work remarkably, and the results are clear across the city.

Today's apparent abundance
Of material possibilities
Shows how humanity's insouciance
Leads to moral calamities

"To ticket a doctrine with the label of pessimism is not to impugn its validity, and the so-called optimists are not the most efficient in action. I believe, on the contrary, that many of the greatest heroes, perhaps the greatest of all, have been men of despair and that by despair they have accomplished their mighty works."
--Miguel de Unamuno
