2: Renee Good’s killer, Jonathan Ross, must be held legally accountable.

I'm so glad I have a Linux box on my desk to MOUNT USB DRIVES because #MacOS just decides to forget how to do it (and hangs Disk Utility). The device is there! It works! It shows up in USB Prober! A reboot fixes it! WHY? Apple, you used to do USB MSC so well, what happened? It's so tiring.

Unfortunately, I’m hearing what @… said through other channels as well: it appears to be nothing more than a geographic shift. Someone just posted that Roseville (north / northeast suburb) is “swimming in ICE” right now.

(If you can’t view post: it just says ICE was swarming the southwest MSP suburbs yesterday.)
