“I’m gonna produce as much as I can to make their jobs as difficult as possible.” Writing for @baltimorebeat.bsky.social, @jnoor.bsky.social on zine-making vs ICE, including our efforts to flood the city with free anti-ICE posters and know your rights resources. baltimorebeat.com/a-teaching-t...

Matching funds on all donations up to $50,000 for each of these Minneapolis area rent relief funds this week. www.standwithminnesota.com/keepmnhoused

Neighbors Helping Neighbors/Whittier Alliance had this to say about the need they’re trying to meet. A donation to their fund would have a big and FAST impact.

The Divine Spark is Your Portal to Purpose What called you into magic? What called you into spirituality? If you're anything like me or my clients, there was probably a soul-deep yearning. A longing for something that your heart knew existed, but perhaps you'd never seen before. Or maybe you'd…

the local queer org that hasn’t posted a single thing about ICE, fascism, or concentration camps also stopped adding the local kink events to their calendar. white queers playing respectability politics will be the death of us.

ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings. www.sacurrent.com/news/san-ant...

Haven Watch is the group that meets people who are being released from Whipple (usually because they were illegally detained), often without coats or phones or any way to get home.

I’m so heartened by this moment in Minnesota (and of course in LA and Chicago and other places) it’s been an ethic of refusal. What does it mean to actually refuse that which you cannot abide or accept?

lupercalia blood sacrifice ❤️‍🔥🩸✨ why are all my most painful tattoos the ones i get as jokes?

the witch is an artist of possibility

So all that Palantir stuff that's in roblox, vrchat, and soon discord? yeah. this stuff makes nixon look like a boyscout. this is genuinely orwellian.

it took so much lineage healing to be able to read playing cards that i almost can’t believe i reach for my playing cards as often tarot these days. the ancestral congnitive distortions ran deep 😵‍💫

I think Hecate is Capricorn coded because, according to theogony, Zeus gave her a share of of the earth and the sea

ICYMI: I introduced my Trans Bill of Rights with @markey.senate.gov — legislation to defend trans people across this country as Republicans continue to push anti-trans rhetoric and bills. To our beloved trans community: We see you, we love you, and we will always stand with you.

Oh you mean the company funded by PETER THIEL?

feels so appropriete to wrap up Saturn’s transit of my 4H with a week alone in my apartment while my partner is on a trip. this transit has had everything -

it only took a decade of recovering from academic music spaces, a bass guitar, and a devotional relationship with Vega and Orpheus for me to realize i actually am a musican after all

This is what the Epstein class has pushed about trans people. Every accusation a confession. "We're not the groomers," the elites cry, "its the tr***ies you want!" #3E

This is genuinely insane, I clicked to see the years expecting the low part to be 70s or maybe 90s but its 2015!!!!! The entire anti trans panic is a decade old

for when you’re ready to graduate from “monogamy? in this economy?????”

…I think that the meaning of as above so below makes itself even more clear in times like this…where practical, ground level action, paired with energetic magic is not just complementary but absolutely necessary.

The Bishop Henry Whipple Federal Building looms in the background of the camp at Coldwater Spring, or Mni Owe Sni, at Fort Snelling along the Mississippi River — where the U.S. government in the mid-1800s killed hundreds of Dakota people and imprisoned more than 1,600 in a concentration camp.

“i love your hair!” “omg thanks i love your name!” and that, folks, is the start of a beautiful enby4enby friendship ✨

Amplifying this again because what Yusra said here keeps ringing in my ear. The state took no material actions to prevent this catastrophe. The mayor’s office took no actions. The mighty NPIC could not meet the moment with the nimbleness required. It’s the people making a Herculean attempt.

With Ring, American consumers built the surveillance dragnet. Ring's Super Bowl ad, which highlighted a feature to find lost dogs, showed Ring is still, again, and always will be in the business of leveraging its network of luxury surveillance consumers www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

accidentally left my phone in the living room when i went to bed last night and i am sorry to report that i slept uncommonly deeply and restfully

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

A Modern Prayer to the Virgin Mary Mary Against Empire While attending the Salem Witch Fest this summer, I had the privilege of hearing Vincent V. Saint-Roch's talk on Mary Empress of Hell, titled "'By Sweet Violence': Mary as Empress of Hell, Mary as Bully, Mary of the Big Stick". Naturally,…

How Michael Parenti helped clarify the class war With the death of Marxist thinker and anti-imperialist advocate Michael Parenti, many on the left have been reflecting on his life. For anyone committed to the working class struggle, Michael Parenti represented a strong voice against fascism and…

3. MN Residents have the power. The administration is scared the individuals hiding behind their masks and badges are scared. I have seen it in their eyes. Our community has come together to protect each other with a baffling level of compassion I would have told you was not possible years ago.

We need less than $300 to completely fund these two rent needs! Can you chip in or share? 🌻

the energetic inconsistency post-top surgery has been wild. sometimes it feels like a whole world of possibility is open to me now. and then sometimes i have to pull all the way back, hide my phone, do nothing for a bit and go to bed at 9pm

The Slut is Blessed by The Goddess The work of the Slut is done in service of The Goddess. The Goddess goes by many names -Madonna, Mother Mary. Bona Dea. Vesta. Dionysus. Kybele. Medusa. Isis. Adonis. Persephone. Mary Magdalene. Ananke. Eros. Hecate. Aphrodite. Hestia. These are the names I know…

I’m thinking about order this morning wrt the ICE occupation & the people’s response to it. Because the power brokers expect order through control & obedience to a set of rules they impose. Except the people of Minnesota, while acting very orderly, have managed to subvert the coercive control.

I passed this post and I see how close this person is to coming up from submersion (Freire). Freire uses submerged to describe people who are fully in the conditions and conditioning of their reality without yet seeing the causes. A lot of people are emerging from submersion right now.

when trans old lady at the sex shop tells you to buy a vibrator you buy the fucking vibrator and you do not regret your decision

Kelly Vargas writes about what happened to her, her husband, and their 6yo daughter in the family camp in Texas. Filth, illness, medical abuse—her child has lasting complications from being injured by a staff member. We don't know the half of what's happening in the camps, but we know enough.

As if I needed another reason to hate AI.

i found this on pinterest and i cannot stop laughing

Working on becoming less relatable in this work. Not because not everyone can do this but because in order to embrace your fate you gotta embrace your freak. So here are few of my freaky ways:

i typed and deleted about 15 variants of this post but im just gonna say fuck you. no. im done voting if i have to keep voting for the lesser of two hitlers. you dont get to hold this country hostage and demand fealty because you'll only murder 95% of the brown ppl that your opponent wants to

instead, you could PAY SOMEBODY'S FUCKIN RENT!

ffs we don't need resistance bird logos. we need to show up for our neighbors, before things get bad. we should have already been building mutual aid networks, 10+ years ago. we need to know our rights, be ready to respond, and help others do the same. that other shit is just neoliberal distraction.
