"More People are Choosing to Live in Northwest Indiana and that's a Very Good Sign"

This is one of the topics I've been wanting to write about for some time. I think it's some of the strongest and clearest evidence that the future for Northwest Indiana is bright.

More People are Choosing to Live in Northwest Indiana and that's a Very Good Sign

After more than a decade of decline, Northwest Indiana's population has started growing, and growing faster than the national average.

It’s that time. Heading apple picking today (which completes the fruit picking seasons after already strawberry picking 3 months ago and blueberry picking late July).
@neilhimself explained on the #birdsite that he was given by Elmo the blue checkmark for free. Another good reasons after the thousands already explained to avoid paying the new digital home for right-wing dangerous extremism.

Dominion was responsible for saving Dominion
And we the people are responsible for saving democracy

San Francisco asks residents to rate their feelings of safety in their neighborhood during the day and at night. This is used in part to measure the overall “feelings of safety and trust in police“ of residents.

The neighborhood with the lowest safety rating isn’t the Tenderloin or South of Market.

It is Seacliff.

Seacliff is a former residence park. Very exclusive neighborhood on the far side of the city, next to the Presidio, filled with single-family homes and for the longest time white-only.

It is also conveniently left off the map, but appears on the chart. It is the only neighborhood with a D rating.

Are electeds really expected to legislate around people’s feelings based on surveys like these?

City Survey: Safety and Policing | San Francisco

San Francisco City Survey data measures resident feelings of safety and trust in police.

I’m getting exhausted the past couple of days with Microsoft. They recently changed a policy affecting my hotmail email account (now Outlook run) I’ve had since high school that essentially shuts it down if attachments and OneDrive (the kicker) exceeds 5GB. I don’t even want my OneDrive in the cloud but it they’re making it impossible to disable. Manage storage, delete some of largest files… it uploads more and takes me right back over the limit.

Conservatives: This shouting down of speakers is outrageous and a violation of free speech norms!

Me: Yes!

Conservatives: That’s exactly why we have to ban all DEI!

Me: Ye…wait what

Conservatives: This will continue to happen until the schools are purged of the wrongthinkers by a holy cleansing fire!

Me: I always forget what you guys are like

Former Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) endorsed changes to his own Dodd-Frank law in 2018 that freed mid-sized banks from undergoing stress tests. He sits on Signature Bank's board, which just collapsed.

I reached him via phone tonight and he declined to comment https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2018/05/24/a-lot-of-people-heard-what-barney-frank-said-about-the-new-banking-law-few-knew-he-works-for-a-bank/

A lot of people heard what Barney Frank said about the new banking law. Few knew he works for a bank.

Frank has played a key role in tamping down criticisms of the legislation.
