Texas friends, you need to LEAVE NOW. If Ted Cruz is preemptively leaving the state this is gonna be BAD bad.

He needs It to not happen every second of every day, but we only need It to happen once

I have written 10 pages so far of the first of three empirical chapters of my dissertation. It’s based on research that I analyzed solo, much of which I collected myself. I’m so proud of myself right now.

Welp, Clemson officially has measles.

Big tell the post doesn't end "let this teach you the distinction between the powerful & populace & how gross generalizations dehumanize, lack insight & empathy & are bad strategy in organizing a global fight against fascism" and vexing how many sharing it also fail to recognize this.

i feel like the viral bus thread resonates because at every step of the way you're like "ok surely this will be resolved shortly, any second now," which seems like what all the passengers are also thinking. then the fact that the situation doesn't resolve and the bus just keeps going is an Allegory

Thanks for all the shares yesterday. Still a long way to go (about $150), but tbh it's a boon to not feel I'm shouting into the void. My pinned post is full of writing & I'd LOVE to have regular gigs again. Please keep sharing. Lmk if I can barter. I'm trying really hard. I appreciate y'all.

Then I saw what the trouble was: she thought she was immortal.

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place

See this is exactly the attitude the meme’s abt. By calling “every southerner” racist you’re lumping in a bunch of people of color. Southern states have higher percentages of Black people than most others. Did all yall collectively forget that MLK and the SCLC are southern too?

Lots of people who were real comfortable voting for genocide calling me racist today.

People who think the focus should be on breweries and pizza are missing the entire point 🙄

Hi everyone! I’m FROM the south. Lived here my whole life. 5+ generations deep on both sides of the family. If you’re from outside here trying to tell me about my own home, just stop.

I wouldn't say I'm BATTLING depression Frankly it makes some good points. I might be on its side now

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.

David Lynch passed a year ago today. I hope we all can absorb just a little bit of the energy he put out in his lifetime.

oh bitch if you come for the best king cake in town during Mardi Gras season, the finding out will be unholy

the problem with an untrained secret police squad that shoots people in their cars isn’t that they’re untrained

every time i log on something horrible is happening but also people are trying really hard to help

And food is cultural! It's absolutely a reflection of fascism & white supremacy to tell poor people to just live off of a cup of rice a day basically & to do it while erasing actual nutritional guidelines & replacing them with fitness influencer fads & disordered eating!

“You’re gonna T-bone into some family” like ICE doesn’t routinely cause car crashes

Most of us make it through situations with people they’d deem “dangerous” on a daily basis with like, no problem.

I’m about 5’4 on a good day and I used to be a social worker. A not insignificant number of my clients were the same folks cops are running around claiming to be scared of. Never once did it seem like a good idea to me to bring a weapon to work.

For ease of navigation and sharing, I have turned my little list into a website: standwithminnesota.org

Want to help folks being terrorized by ICE in Minnesota? Well look at this google doc someone made. Lots of GoFundMe's that haven't met their goals yet. docs.google.com/document/d/1...

It's kind of shocking how effective Minneapolis has been at unmasking Trump's and his supports' violent, fascist desires. The entire national Democratic Party isn't as effective.

This is a child. They did this to a child.

We’d like to clarify that the NO ICE sign outside of the Weiner Hut is not a political statement. The ice machine broke. However, the FUCK ICE sign outside of the park entrance is.

hello, it me, king of unemployment & suffering. It takes $150/wk for me to break even on food + shelter. I lost my writing gig in Sept & AI is making things so bleak. My ko-fi has YEARS worth of writing for monthly AND one off supporters. My venmo is MirandaBrave. Pls share! ko-fi.com/lostwolfling

My health insurance policy shows as valid and active online, but every time the pharmacist inputs my info she gets a message saying it’s not. The insurance company won’t answer the phone. I currently cannot get the medical care I need. Blue Cross Blue Shield, rot in hell.

Fuck ice is now a greeting and also a goodbye.

Servicemen kiss their brand-new brides at a mass wedding of ten couples in a gymnasium in El Paso, 1942. These men and women were no doubt going to be soon separated and there was a chance that some of the men might not come back. An intense scene! Taken for life.com magazine by Elliot Elisofan.

i think standing too close to ICE is what has been getting people killed

IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
