Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Volunteering is self-care and community care. Been at the Beaverton Public Library almost a year now!

There’s a rally going on in Boston rn and they’re chanting “we’re not cold, we’re not afraid, MN taught us to be brave!” and I might cry

this is an area where I’ve been doing a lot of work over the last several years to root out entrenched ableism in my language and I’ve found “willfully ignorant” feels more accurate. it’s a deliberate choice about refusing to take in new information, read, learn, use logic, question beliefs

🚨"This is nuts! What the f*ck is going on, this is insane! ICE is just trying to scare people; they tell you it's only immigrants—it's f*cking anybody!" -furious Minneapolis resident tells our @zdroberts.bsky.social after ICE shot a man in the leg tonight. LIVE NOW ⬇️

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia. Thousands singing “Hey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.” Really listen to it.

Celebratied NYE with my cousin! We had sushi and tried to see the drone show but failed at finding the right view. We still had fun!

Finally got a new passport…with the wrong gender marker, despite applying with the attestation form and my name/gender change court order (which was even requested during the process). I’m so pissed. This was mailed as an explanation along with my old expired passport:

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

“There's no governor that's done more pro trans legislation than I have, and no one has been a stronger advocate for the LGBTQ community," - Gavin Newsom to Ezra Klein, of all people I’m not even sure irony is the right word here but whatever it is, it’s strong. 😂 Can we send them both to Mars?

People need to boycott the US right now. Don’t wait for these demands to go into place. Don’t go for the World Cup. Don’t go for the Olympics. Don’t go to Disney or Vegas or Broadway. It’s not safe, and your tourist dollars shouldn’t support fascism. Vote with your dollar.

Seattle will move forward with its World Cup “Pride Match” on June 26 despite objections from Iran and Egypt over the Pride branding. Both nations asked FIFA to intervene, but local organizers say the plans stand.

Where you live shouldn’t determine the mental health care you receive. But too often, folks in rural and underserved corners of Oregon struggle because there aren’t enough providers nearby, and the wait for care is too long. (1/3)

MINNEAPOLIS: “All I did was step outside as a Somali American citizen, and I got chased by a masked person, assaulted, kidnapped. It was inhumane. If this is what’s happening to a 🇺🇸 citizen on camera, imagine what could happen to your loved ones.”

Q: “We're interested in the seizure of this tanker. What happens to the oil on this ship?” Trump: “Well, we keep it, I guess.”

A beautifully illustrated celebration of Ireland’s weather lore, Ninety-Nine Words for Rain (and One for Sun) uncovers the wisdom of the néaladóirí (cloud-watchers) and réadóirí (stargazers) who read the skies, seas and animals long before forecasts existed. 📺 RTÉ One, 11/12 @ 10.15pm

new ace hoodie. very comfy.

I’ve heard many stories of how ICE is not following the law or honoring due process. I'm at the Tacoma ICE facility to come see for myself and hold ICE accountable. From my visit, it was abundantly clear that ICE is lying.

Statement from Rep. Crockett on Threat at D.C. Office

This Trans Day of Remembrance, my heart hurts thinking of all the people we couldn't carry through to the other side of this moment in history. Amidst all the fighting we've done for our community, amidst the unshakeable belief that we will win in the end, grief still takes hold.

“please connect with sarah, our digital recruiter” absolutely not 😖

The stakes are too high to wait: we need to impeach Trump now. I’ll be speaking at the Remove the Regime rally in Washington, DC this Saturday. I hope to see you there! @flareusa.bsky.social @removalcoalition.bsky.social

I just voted to release the Epstein Files. Read my statement ⤵️

🎉

“Please remember that these are crimes that were committed against real humans, real individuals.”

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

New York City billboards are displaying the president’s 91 felony charges.

Starbucks’ CEO makes 6,666x what the average @sbworkersunited.org barista does. It would take less than one day of sales to finalize a fair contract. Baristas at Starbucks corporate stores nationwide are on strike to fight this corporate greed and get the fair contract they deserve.

A campaign that could evolve into bombing a nation thirty times the size of Panama, larger than Ukraine, and home to nearly 30 million people cannot be slipped past either Congress or the American public as an extension of drug policy. www.thebulwark.com/p/no-venezue...

Baked cupcakes today! Pumpkin cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. The two I ate were delicious, choir people get the rest. #BakingSky

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

No health care, no deal.

Mamdani’s politics, progressive politics, should be the tiles in the floor on which we stand. what he wants to achieve for New Yorkers (and for everyone, I assume) should represent the BARE MINIMUM of what we expect of every politician who asks us for a job

Went on a fun adventure to Multnomah Falls! It was very misty.

Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going! Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists. We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

I’ve never seen an American elected official fight so hard to starve people.

Ahead of the 1st shutdown of US food aid to hungry Americans in 60 years, some of the 200,000 Little Free Library locations are converting into food pantries. Thanks @littlefreelibrary.bsky.social

“what radicalized you” idk paying attention

Do not let this man get the presidential nomination

I was trusted with normal shelving the other day, not just holds shelving. Leveling up? The children’s sections are pure chaos though.

might be one of the funniest videos i’ve ever seen

One of the hardest parts of chronic illness is the fact that society expects you to hide your suffering for their comfort They expect you to smile and say you’re “fine” when you’re anything but They expect you to assuage their fears so they don’t have to think about the temporary nature of health
