This one is a bit rough around the edges. I shot it earlier when the Moon was lower on the horizon, so it's got some atmospheric distortion going on. #SantaBarbara #MoonPhotography #MoonPhotos #MoonShots #Photography #ChingaLaMigra

A blue circular sticker featuring the face of Canada's laziest and maybe most corrupt premier - Doug Ford. The words in white around his face say, "This is why Ontario can't have nice things."

Doug Ford has two weeks left of his 15-week winter holiday before he and his cabal of Cons return to Queen's Park to continue destroying what's left of the province.

Maybe we should decorate the neighbourhood to welcome him back.

Thread!

With mutual aid, the need doesn’t often end with one goal met, it just means there are more goals. Do not ever attack someone for continuing to ask. Poverty is awful enough, don’t be a shithead about it.

Help this person out. πŸ’•πŸ’Έ

I've reached $150, thank you! This is enough for groceries, BUT I have to keep it aside for rent first.

Can anyone else help me out tonight? Every bit helps, and I've just been hit by another parent dying, so please consider helping me get ahead instead of panicking?

We could end homelessness and hunger tomorrow if we wanted to.

We could agree that everyone should be fed and housed.

We could admit that being disabled, poor, homeless or unemployed is not a moral failing.

That society would be better off if everyone’s basic needs were met.

I think the more we understand the world, the harder it is to live in itβ€”which doesn’t say much for the world if I’m being honest.

It feels really goofy to hear "the US economy is doing great" and also know how many companies are doing mass layoffs or not hiring right now

Two donations came in in the last five minutes. Thank you so much!

Total now is $130/1000. Much better but still not where the trajectory ought to be almost a week into the month.

Please keep sharing etc. Can anyone match the recent $10 or $100?

I'm supposed to listen to the folks that aren't wearing masks and want to cater to antivaxxers? They want to "restore trust," but can't even admit why they lost it in the first place. All the "professionals" that lied to the public and sacrificed people to save capitalism can eat shit.

As far as I'm concerned, the entire field of public health lost all credibility with COVID. They're not even talking about it in the top public health programs in the US anymore. Literally just memory holed it, and they're all pretending that being perpetually sick is normal 🫠

DHS said that Ruben Ray Martinez was a threat.

That he β€œrammed” their vehicles.

Video evidence shows he was at a full stop and not a danger to anyone.

They shot him three times and killed him.

Just like Marimar Martinez, Renee Good & Alex Pretti.

They’re lying to cover up murder.

Deaf 6-year-old boy is deported to Colombia without his medical devices, attorney says A Hayward woman and her two young children were detained and deported to Colombia after they showed up earlier this week for an asylum appointment in San Francisco, her attorney said.

ICE deported a 6 year old deaf child with severe disabilities to Columbia.

Before deporting him, they dragged him from camp to camp without providing his assistive hearing devices or a translator.

This innocent child had no way to communicate or understand what was being done to him:

The idea that imperfect victims aren’t worth defending is much bigger than me, and is something I had to speak out about.

What kind of world does it create when only some of us are deemed worthy of institutional support and safety?

$20 closer, thank you! This lands me at the grocery total I need, but I *must* prioritize rent first, so that's $550 away from rent.

Can anyone else chip in tonight? Anything helps- could you match that $20?

And please keep sharing!
