"DALLAS — A now-former manager at the Downtown Dallas location of White Rhino Coffee has gone viral thanks to an Instagram post in which she announced her resignation from the coffee company because she claimed she was told to offer ICE agents discounts.
"Margot Stacy's Thursday morning social media post stirred up a controversy leading to several actions over the span of the last five days. Almost a dozen employees across the local coffee shop chain joined Stacy in quitting. Celebrities voiced their support on social media for her stance. And the company she had worked for until that day has since issued two separate statements in response."
Here in #Texas, to the Republicans and the billionaires whose power they entrench, the prospect of the Lone Star State being swept up in a similarly insurgent candidacy still sounds like its own far-fetched fantasy.
Heads up to our friends in #Dallas (DFW). We've identified an issue affecting the service which will require the PoP to go offline for up to 2 hours tomorrow (Jan 15th).

Sleep is going to be elusive so am starting a thread with info about ICE protests, vigils, and demonstrations being held from 1/8 onward all around the U.S.

Hey #Dallas area folks, I am looking to interview fun/weird #interior#designers, preferably #turnkey. Students and recent grads with new ideas needing portfolio work? Cool too! As long as you're under a lic #architect.
I've decided that it's just not feasible for me to try and get out of #Texas this late in life (unless the #Netherlands works out). The good states are twice as expensive, and I'd rather subsidize getting my trans daughter and her fiance to a safe state than trying to get a mortgage as an Old. I'm safer here than she is.
I can't afford to move to the places I want to live, (or won't because ethics, else I'd be in Maui) so if this will be the forever house, I might as well move walls, rip out ugly floors, and do what I really want to do with the space. And have someone with good taste tell me how to make it look like grown ups live here, and not a collective of weird art, bug, and book collectors. :)
Please pass along recs and links to portfolios! Thanks!
With the embarrassing #Dallas loss tonight, the #Philadelphia#Eagles have nearly locked up the #NFC East and will likely secure their playoff fate. #NFL
Legacy took care of #HIV / #AIDS patients back when there was no cure and nobody cared about the gays. They’re still helping homeless/unhoused HIV+ people get treatment and get back on their feet.

Fascinating history of the newspaper's 140 years. The paper led a successful crusade against a burgeoning KKK in the early 20th century. It brought the Fed too!
