This is a story about gentrification, but it's also a story about how schools are increasingly being called upon to help families with matters that seem unrelated to academics but profoundly affect students' ability to learn. #vted #vtpoli sevendaysvt.com/news/were-le…

A banger of an article about conservative legal group ADF, which I wrote about as they pertain to #vted in August
A.D.F.’s critics say that the group is “hellbent on eradicating L.G.B.T.Q. people from public life.” Its lawyers see Christians as the besieged minority in need of protection. @ddk_nyc reports on the legal group’s strategy in the court of public opinion. nyer.cm/cV561xG

Dear anyone visiting the Burlington, #Vermont area this summer, do not leave bikes on racks on your car. Locked or otherwise unless you do not want to keep them. The #btv area is a hot mess ripe with theft without consequence. – at Burlington, VT

“I’m mystified when I hear so many of our 20-something news assistants prefer to work from home. At that age I never could have latched onto so many breaking stories if I hadn’t raised my hand and said, “I’ll go.” Maureen Dowd w Requiem for the Newsroom nytimes.com/2023/04/29/opini…

This week the Oversight Committee held 8 hearings — none of which addressed the derailment in East Palestine. Meanwhile, people from East Palestine are roaming the halls of Congress trying to find any Member to hear their concerns. Oversight needs to hold a hearing on this issue.

Deleted the @lyft app after being target of their “damage” scam. Driver reported (after the 7 min ride where he ran a red light & at least 1 stop sign) that I had damaged his car. Sent pics of some dirt on the console & charged me to “fix” it. Beware, this is apparently common.

In honor of Veteran's Day, I'm playing one of my all-time favorite shows, An American Life. Vaughn Hood, a 118lb barber, was drafted into the Vietnam War. In Vaughn's war, most did not survive. He's one of the most remarkable people I've ever met.#Vietnam rumblestripvermont.com/2022/…

Thread: The FBI's newly released criminal complaint against the man charged with attacking Pelosi features a summary of a Mirandized interview in which, per the FBI summary, *the man himself* essentially debunks the conspiracy theories about the incident.

Republican US House candidate Liam Madden described live on the air his scheme to funnel thousands of dollars through family members to inflate his campaign fundraising totals. Experts told me it’s a “textbook” case of using straw donors. vtdigger.org/2022/10/28/so-b…
