“This was not a thoughtful, phased development. It was an industrial surge imposed on our residential community.”
it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying “this doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to “trans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.
if you can help trans kansans and their families who need to get out of kansas to stay safe, please help.
“if the gender/sex indication on the face of your current credential does not match your sex assigned at birth, you are directed to surrender your current credential” is past frightening.
One of the lessons I hope people take away from Jesse Jackson’s life and the outpouring of remembrances small and large is that progress is made and measured in every act and utterance against oppression and not measured solely in legislative or electoral victories.
Got the Humble Bundle for myself and as a gift for someone else. Bumped up the fundraiser number for both.
1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken.
Hundreds of kids are still detained.
We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵
Laughing at the people who seem to think that the halftime show that took place in the sugarcane fields wasn’t political
how dare you use karaoke for evil

Tomorrow marks the first day of the 100 years of Black History Month. I will be Blackity Black Black all month. This is a PSA.

I don’t want to hear anything from an elected official unless it’s a plan to defund the DHS and impeach Noem, Bovino, etc. No texts. No emails. No talk about the economy. Step up or step off.
At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.
Officials are urging residents to take precautions now amid warnings of hazardous travel and potential power outages. https://atlanta.capitalbnews.org/atlanta-warming-centers-winter-storm/
Crochet version is up. It looks like they decided to sell the crochet version separately. payhip.com/b/Kvzab
Hey, people are permanently losing their eyesight at some of these protests and have been for some time. These people, the ones that have put their bodies on the line, are among the people who would benefit from your usage of alt-text when posting protest related imagery.
Money goes to Minnesota aid. Crochet version on the way (if you buy the pattern, you get knit and crochet) 🧶

We are in fact DESPERATE for winter coats, waterproof gloves, and good boots. We get so many wonderful donations but it is so cold and the numbers of unhoused unsheltered people are going up at the absolute worst time for it, and we run out of coats weekly.
For ease of navigation and sharing, I have turned my little list into a website: standwithminnesota.org
Hi folks, I'm seeing a lot of "Eyes on Minneapolis" & "We support Minnesota" sentiment. Here's a tangible way you can help:
Trump just suspended federal funding for SNAP benefits to Minnesota. Second Harvest Heartland is an MN-based hunger-relief org.
Please donate what you can.

PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS

ICE has shot and killed a community observer in Minneapolis.
Sending all of my love to the people of Minneapolis and the folks defending their neighbors there. This is heinous, and I am so sorry.
To everyone else: REMEMBER ICE LIES ABOUT EVERYTHING. THIS IS DOCUMENTED.
You can find your US reps and senators here: reps.fyi
If you call now, you'll get an answering machine and you can leave a message. A great thing to do if you're nervous about talking to someone. Just give your name, your zip code, and demand they impeach Trump for illegally invading Venezuela.
Screencap from episode 3 of Heated Rivalry with a wallhanging in a smoothie shop that has a similar motif as the set design for dropout.tv’s Game Changer gameshow
This show has my pattern recognition brain in overdrive, but I’m pretty sure this wallhanging is an intentional Game Changer reference in the Game Changers episode
It’s gonna have to be 🤣

Possibly my favorite song, ever. A neighborhood walk is one of my favorite music video structures.
