The guy who makes funny doctor videos (who actually is an ophthalmologist) just made a couple on pepper spray generally and with contacts. We live in weird times.
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call βsymbolic compliance.β
Thatβs when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
By the way. YOU SHOULD STILL CALL YOUR SENATORS. It matters that they vote no. Because you'll know you did your job as an American and it'll be up to them to do the right thing.

Proof that my local bookstore also thinks @tkingfisher.com's Paladin books are cozy romances, despite the occasional severed head. β€οΈ
(next to a crossed out Home Depot logo) βHome Depot has allowed its parking lots to become ground zero for ICE raids on immigrant day laborers, and its billionaire co-founder Bernie Marcus has funneled millions into Trump's campaigns.β (next to a crossed out Target logo) βTarget, which once branded itself as the friendly, inclusive big-box store, has now scrapped its DEl goals and scaled back LGBTQ+ offerings to avoid angering the regime.β (next to a crossed out Amazon logo) βAmazon didn't just shower Trump's inauguration with cash -- Jeff Bezos' company pitched facial-recognition tools to ICE and powers the Palantir systems ICE uses to track and deport immigrants, making Amazon a core contractor for the regime's deportation machine.β

I'm seeing even sketchy local coverage of some things (town halls, protests) but we also do have local institutions who are absolutely holding the line (not allowing ICE into schools, for example). Here, it definitely seems like lack of coverage vs lack of resistance.
I will always like the closing parenthesis.
SO many things can have sneaky gluten from seasonings, broth, etc etc. Also, many wineries apparently use flour paste when sealing wine barrels, so it can contaminate otherwise gf wine! πͺ
I answer the critically important question, "HOW DO WE SLOW DOWN TRUMP?"
Here are 7 meaningful things we can do to fight back.
