A collection of 9 anti-ICE and related signs; messages include variations of β€œICE OUT” and love for neighbors.

I’ve been photographing anti-ICE and related yard/window/tree/street signs around Minneapolis. The variety of commercial and especially handmade signs is amazing, as is the urge for people to let their neighbors know they care and are furious in ways big and small. Batch #5

reminder: for covid, you won't show pos for 36-48hrs after exposure.

if your flight's friday morning, testing = inaccurate anytime before saturday night (unless you're feeling sick sooner)

also why it's responsible to stay at home for a few days after events so tests+no symptoms can be verified.

We JUST moved to a new state when this happens. Anything you can do to help would be appreciated beyond words

If you're doomscrolling, guess what? So far there are 51 kākāpō chicks hatched and thriving this season, the same number of birds as we had in TOTAL in the 90s! Only one chick has died and there are still fertile eggs waiting to hatch!

I feel similarly about Atlantis: The Lost Empire. It's easy to overlook a movie so steeped in colonialism and the white savior trope when the main cast has a fun group dynamic full of interesting characters

Every culture has a dumpling, even if they don't call it a dumpling. And it's beautiful

Thinking a lot about Maggie Gyllenhaal's character in "Stranger Than Fiction" lately. A baker and small business owner who gets audited by the IRS for only paying the percentage of taxes that DOESN'T go to the military and corporate bailouts.

A graphic with a large yellow banner in the middle announcing "Live on Kickstarter! We've Always Been Here: A queer historical zine." The bottom text is in a rainbow gradient with little rainbows framing the box. Above this is a mockup of the book's cover alongside some page mockups, and the bottom half features three other illustration previews.

If you were OK with β€œSubstack, the Nazi Bar,” maybe β€œSubstack, a front for the gambling on life and death casino” might convince you.

I am going to link to organizations that I know for sure are helping trans Kansans. This thread will develop slowly as I either know people or will vet them.

At this point we have not heard from anyone being helped via relocation resources. These exist, but I assume they are overwhelmed.

Filipinos have a lot of dishes with offal. That’s because our colonisers from Spain got all the good cuts of meat and whatever was left was meant for the slaves, the poor, the servants, the colonised, to them that was us. You know how they think of you when they say this.

Thinking a lot about how Knights of Guinevere so accurately depicts what it's like as a working class person in a tourist- and entertainment-centered city.

Man, I can't wait for season one!

Oh man, if you ever make it out to Vegas, Majestic Rep (the same theatre company that put on this show) also has a musical parody of Scream that's equally as goofy/fun

I still haven't stopped thinking about the attempt to make "Trump Derangement Syndrome" - calling people mentally ill for not going along with Trump - an actual dx. *Alongside* those labor camps.

Robin D. G. Kelley: It’s Not Enough to Abolish ICE β€” We Have to Abolish the Police β€œWhat’s happening now has happened before,” Kelley said, underscoring the anti-Blackness foundational to US fascism.

Premature death at the hands of armed agents of the state is merely a hazard of being Black in America. It’s not enough to β€œabolish ICE”; we have to abolish the police force and replace it with a radically different form of public safety.

What happened in Kansas is *exactly* why you need to get rid of Newsom at the primary.

He will not protect trans people.
He will not protect homeless people.
He will not protect anyone.He considers outside of the cultural norm.

... that's Republican shit.

Trying to find a free digital calendar substitute for Google Calendar that lets me use *more than three colors to color-code with* 😭
...that can also work across multiple mobile OSs, as well as desktop

This has been my biggest challenge for de-Googling so far.

100% and it's important not to let people forget this when people like Newsom embrace anti-trans rhetoric. It leads to this kind of shit. See also his deeply inhumane treatment of the unhoused which has led to criminalizing them so they can be cycled through the for profit prison system.

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF
