Spotify is running ads recruiting agents for ICE. They claim these ads comply with their policy, but the truth is streaming hate is not neutral. It’s a choice. Don't fund fascism. Cancel Spotify until they remove all ICE ads. indivisible.org/cancel-spotify #dontstreamfascism #cancelspotify

more of this please. #donotcomply #courageovercapitulation

very important thread on the absolute nazi shit happening at ICE 👇

and now the power is out in the fairgrounds area.

oof, i just turned on the LSU game like 10 minutes ago and it ain't looking very good. damn.

I just got word that this event is now canceled because of a conflict with another event. So please if you shared this can you share the update that it is canceled?

In about an hour, I’ll be heading over to the weekly pop-up protest at the circle entrance to City Park at Esplanade. Come join us!

also too there is a big "non-profit" institution that happens to be operating as a commercial real estate developer downtown but doesn't pay any property taxes..

Well if you are looking for a reason to vote against the bond issue, here is one. Part of the money is already promised to Paul Flower and Bill Hoffman to do this www.nola.com/news/busines...

finally finished the last overnight dog sit of the year that i had on the books, and i'm not taking on any more. at 58, it's just exhausting trying to sleep in someone else's bed with someone else's animals that take a few nights to adjust. i do really wish i'd thought of this job in my 20s though.

A useful list now that all of the gov accts here are run by 47, posting inflammatory lies, racist AI slop, and Nazi rhetoric bsky.app/profile/did:...

hey if you're planning to wear one of those inflatable costumes to #nokings tomorrow, bring some ice packs to tuck inside with you as well as plenty of water or gatorade cuz it's incredibly hot inside those things. we don't need a bunch of frogs and unicorns dropping like flies during the rally!

Getting the word out in Shreveport, Louisiana.

After weeks of confusion, COVID-19 shots are now widely available across Louisiana — no prescription needed.

I will be there tonight too however my only costume will be that of “ democracy-loving pet sitter” since I’ll be dipping in between pet appointments. 😂

ok real talk #nolasky #nolatwitter - are folks coming to the #nokings protest on the greenway? i was handing out flyers last night at an event & was astounded to find people who hadn't heard anything about it. thankfully they were psyched and plan to come. i know there's a lot going on this weekend.

Save this file and print it out. Put it in your window. Give them to your neighbors. Tack one up in your neighborhood on a utility pole. Put them up in your favorite coffee shop. Gather your people and meet us on the Greenway! Last time we had 7000. This time we’re shooting for twice that!

haven't shared any cute kitten pics lately. she's growing up so fast!! i settled on Dusti as her name - for my favorite Gulf Coast abstract expressionist Dusti Bongé. i swear some days she is the only thing keeping me going. (i love my other cat Lily but she is often bitchy and rarely lovey dovey.)

omg. shameful.

Kermit Ruffins is bringing his legendary sound and spirit to the #NoKings Rally! Join us for an afternoon of community, power, and incredible music as we mobilize for democracy. This isn't just a rally; it's a celebration of our collective voice. 10/18 3:30-5:30pm Lafitte Greenway #IndivisibleNOLA

Picked up a stack of flyers earlier for the #NoKings protest next Saturday. I’ll be flyering tomorrow afternoon in the area around the Greenway if anybody wants to come help. Just DM me.

I voted a little while ago, and I am so delighted to report that my polling location was hopping! I can’t remember a time in recent history when it’s been that crowded and I’ve actually had to wait in line for 10 minutes to vote! I am usually the only one there when I vote. 👏👏

Wow, the pumpkin patch at Carrollton and Zimple is such a scene today. No I’m not getting a pumpkin. I was just driving by, but I guess the fall weather today has got people in the spirit.

Power out again in midcity. This time we saw the transformer explode from our front porch. Sparks and all on Bienville right in front of G’s.

This is fucking ridiculous that the power is out again in basically the same area it was out the other night. This fucking town kills me.

well that was fun, howling. or really, for me it was more screaming. it is still hard for me to scream, post brain surgery, due to damage to my vocal cords/nerves in my throat, but i did my best. and it felt great! if you didn't make it tonight, join us next month on the full moon! #howlloud #nola

BIG WIN FOR THE CITY AND STR REGULATION 🚨 Today we received a ruling in the Hignell STR litigation that began in 2019, and the Fifth Circuit made it clear: the City DOES have the authority to regulate short-term rentals. www.instagram.com/p/DPhwgoxDMXI/

oh goodness. we can't lose Dolly! sending all the woo she feels better soon!

hope to see (and hear) some of y'all howling tonight at the cabrini bridge on the bayou!

What in the fuck is going on in midcity by City Park. My fucking power keeps going on and off and on and off and on and off. I was trying to do a zoom but that’s pretty much shot now.

i knew there was something fucked up about that guy.

I keep forgetting to tell people about this fundraiser happening Saturday night in support of @imaginewaterworks.org Furight Night dance party! Not just for furries! But especially fun for furries!

here is the signup link for the NOLA No Kings event on 10/18. and below is a discussion from Indivisible national about why they ask folks to RSVP and if it's safe to do so. make your own informed choice: mobilize.us/s/U7BLje

wow this @indivisiblenola.org meeting is crowded!!

Here is your Voter Education Guide for the Oct. 11 municipal election. You'll be voting on candidates for mayor, City Council, sheriff, assessor, and civil district court clerk, as well as a City Charter amendment and, in some areas, a local tax proposition... antigravitymagazine.com/feature/vote...

NEW: This is a story I worked really hard on. I spoke to four American trans people about why they're claiming asylum in Canada or the Netherlands. It's an eye-opening window into just how unsafe people now feel here — and what drove them to that point. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

i wish i could remember to check in here more often. too many social media accounts, too little time. i think i haven't even told y'all about my new kitten!! she's been w/me 2.5 weeks now and she's 3 months old, a grey/white tuxedo. she's adorable and feisty and surprisingly my other cat likes her.

WAKE THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE! this design was based on a small linocut print. i like the rough chunky look of it so i blew it up for the tshirt design. i'm printing some light color shirts w/black ink at home diy style but folks really wanted the black w/green so link in profile.

hey midcity folx, come join us thursday evening (or morning, if you'd rather) for a pop-up pro-democracy protest! i'll be there in the evening. we had around 25 last week - let's get even more! it's actually pretty fun cuz so many people honk in support and seem so happy to see us out there.

she’s still my president ❤️

Just a reminder that there are several weekly pop-up pro-democracy protests in New Orleans. They don’t usually last longer than 20-60 minutes and are fairly small groups of neighbors standing out on a street corner with signs reminding us all to stand up to fascism. #resist

New Orleans has had the fewest murders through August since 1970. All major crime types are down this year. Relative to 2022: Carjacking -81% Robbery -59% Auto theft -34% Shootings -63% Vehicle burglary -70% So this makes sense. www.wdsu.com/article/dona...

For those who might need this…

I went to the ribbon cutting this morning for the refreshed Katrina exhibit at the Presbytere. They added a Banksy.

Good to know.

sending a lot of love out to the katrina diaspora. be gentle with yourselves today. #k+20

well i succumbed to curiosity and just watched the first episode of the new spike lee katrina doc on netflix. lots of interesting archival footage and heartbreaking interviews. i gotta go to bed so will have to finish it tomorrow or over the weekend but i dunno so far it's well done.
