describing something that is made out of 70% polyester as "wool" is unhinged

La Migra have always been monsters, be they INS, ICE, CBP, HSI or any other weird slush fund org. Just nobody heard the brown people who were their primary prey when they told you. immigration isn’t a problem in need of violence. It needs more paths & access, open doors. All else funds cartels.

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

This has been the talk of the removal defense community for days. Long story short, what the Trump admin is alleging is that a 1996 law made every undocumented immigrant who crossed the border illegally “mandatory detention” and categorically ineligible for bond, no matter how long they lived here.

and right after passing a bill that imposes a fee for every year your asylum application waits to be adjudicated... that backlog is gonna get even worse ffs

i'm preparing to officiate my second wedding and wow i love love. just giggling and kicking my feet talking to my friend's wife about how much she loves my friend

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I’ve seen enough, abolition is the centrist position

Wow: ICE Has Deported at Least 70 U.S. Citizens

I was previously hoodwinked by this account because I like seeing national park employees stand up for the parks. When it turned into lefty qanon with a storefront I realized I’d been had.

TLDR, Soundcloud has put it in their terms of service that must agree to letting them use your music to train AI. If you're on the site, get off now and move your stuff elsewhere.

i realize the title is a bit counterintuitive but the answer is that you cannot as an individual guarantee your food is safe. we can, as a collective, push back HARD on dismantling food safety regulations, and put pressure on an unpopular administration to keep our food from killing us.

more people should decline! just say no!

the number of times i have recommended a book back to the person who originally recommended it to me-- look i was not born to remember details i was born to correctly identify a vibe

once again a pair of jeans has been defeated by my thighs

when you've given it your all and it's only tuesday

hi lesbians

This is why we must fight for everyone. Whether they’ve been incarcerated or have had contact with the criminal legal system or are merely undocumented. When you accept that some people are deserving of detention and deportation the scope of who is eligible is always under threat of expanding.

turns out the way to stop doom scrolling is to play moonstone island for 8 hrs

Please look up the influenza epidemic of 1918-19 to understand that the CDC not selecting strains for next year’s vaccines sets the stage for a public health calamity that will, without doubt and at bare minimum, catastrophically and directly impact people you know. This is a five alarm fire.

Now every day is trans day of visibility

and peep the venmo and paypal options which, imo, make it easier to make regular donations!

Yes, it is entirely correct to point out that ICE officers do not have any legal authority to break into somebody’s home unless they get a judicial warrant; which they generally cannot do, because judges only issue warrants for probable cause of crimes, not immigration law violations.

Public comment is now open for passport gender marker changes. You can go here to go to each of the three proposed passport rules, and submit comment. My suggestion: be unique, argue for trans-inclusive policies, against the constitutionality of the changes, etc. www.reddit.com/r/Passports/...

dont you gender me, young man

if your beans didn't soften while cooking it's not because you salted too early. it's not because you added too much acid. it's not because the beans are too old. it's because you're impure of heart and the beans Know

NEW @motherjones.com: An analysis found Elon's cybertrucks are deadlier than infamous the Ford Pintos, which were the subject of a famous @motherjones.com cover story that prompted a federal investigation. Cybertrucks have had 5 known fatalities in just 1 year. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Meanwhile, somewhere in New Jersey… I love the Visibility Brigade. Musk raided the Treasury Musk stole your tax data Musk has your SS# Stop Musk Coup

Trump has signed 10 executive orders attacking trans people in his first 16 days in office. Do not ever let anyone tell you that it's Democrats who are obsessed with trans people.

Okay, here’s the deal: RIGHT NOW is the time for concrete, direct action. If you’re following me, it’s probably because you care about trans art and trans literature. The article below lays out my suggestions for dozens of concrete actions you can take to preemptively combat literary censorship.

if youre trans you deserve a cheeseburger tonight

Less than 10 days and MULTIPLE CASES already where ICE under Trump's hyper-charged enforcement orders have arrested Puerto Rican citizens! This man's family was sent to an ICE detention center in Milwaukee. Once ICE confirmed they were citizens, all they got was a "sorry."
