A windswept white-crowned sparrow #birds

I moved all the news accounts I followed into a list and unfollowed them yesterday. My intention was just to get a little mental space. A side effect I didn’t consider was that I can see so many more posts of the actual people I follow now. I didn’t realize how much the news spammed my feed.

BREAKING: ICE is preparing to deploy tactical units to five cities run by Democratic leaders, according to two sources familiar with the planning of future ICE operations.
