While some cities are moving to end their contracts with Flock over its links to ICE, others are taking matters into their own hands.

Flock ALPRs do not and cannot track vehicles, much less individual people. ALPRs take a point-in-time image of the rear of vehicles on public roadways. They are incapable of tracking the whole of anyone’s movements, a determination that has been consistently made by Courts across the country.

The meaning you assign to a situation predicts emotional outcome far more than the situation itself. Two people can face the same challenge and experience completely different internal realities. 2️⃣ Researchers at Stanford studying cognitive appraisal found that when people reframe a stressor as a challenge rather than a threat, their bodies respond differently. Heart rate increases in a way that supports performance. Cortisol spikes are lower. Decision making improves. The event stays the same. The response changes everything. 3️⃣ Another study from the University of Michigan showed that people who practiced deliberate mindset shifts during difficult moments recovered emotionally up to three times faster. Their brain activity in regions tied to rumination decreased. Their prefrontal cortex, which governs clarity and regulation, became more active. The conclusion was simple. Mindset is not positive thinking. It is neurological strategy. 4️⃣ Therapists see this daily. Some people collapse under minor disruptions because they interpret them as personal attacks or signs of failure. Others stay grounded during major upheavals because they treat the moment as information rather than identity. The skill is not avoiding difficulty. It is choosing your internal posture when difficulty arrives. 5️⃣ Life will always bring situations that are unfair, unexpected, and uncomfortable. You cannot stop that. But you can decide whether the moment shapes you or strengthens you. You can choose whether the challenge is a wall or a doorway. You can decide whether you freeze or move. Here is the question that matters. Do you believe mindset is something people are born with, or something anyone can learn with enough practice? We may never cross paths again.

He watched them swing at different rhythms for a few minutes. Then, slowly, they began to synchronize. Within half an hour, they were perfectly matched. He separated them. They drifted. He put them back together. They synced again. He called it entrainment. When two oscillating systems exist in proximity, the stronger rhythm mechanically pulls the weaker one into alignment. It requires no permission. No awareness. It is physics. An energy practitioner who worked with empaths noticed this same force in her clients. They would build a stable internal state, then spend time with chaotic people, and within hours their nervous systems would collapse. They thought it was their fault. That they weren’t “strong enough.” But entrainment doesn’t care about strength. It cares about proximity and amplitude. The Hermetic Principle of Vibration teaches that everything is in motion. But modern physics shows that motion doesn’t stay isolated. If their frequency is louder than yours, you will match it. Mechanically. Automatically. You cannot willpower your way out of a physics problem. Distance is the only protection against entrainment. Whose rhythm are you trying to resist instead of removing yourself from? We may never cross paths again. Follow so you don’t lose us — @iamcreationretreat".
