We should absolutely build a terrarium for him and fill it with enrichment, like a phone with only Truth Social installed. People could watch through the glass; put a dollar in a machine to dispense a McChicken. Throw a towel over it at night, and a UV bulb during the day for that healthy orange.

Can one of those guys who yells about paying for immigrants to leave cover the cost of my application for Canadian citizenship? And the postage which was a mind boggling $33?

If you're looking for a CT pistol permit class, we're your best option. Lowest price in CT, Stop the Bleed included as a free option. We can also notarize your application at no cost. Class is this Sunday, and you'll be done by dinnertime. Register: crossdrawfirearms.square.site/product/apri...

There's still seats available for this weekend's CT pistol permit and Stop the Bleed class. We're $10 less than the lowest price I could find online, and can also notarize your application for free. Don't wait; register here: Crossdrawfirearms.square.site

Pistol permit and Stop the Bleed class this weekend. Register: crossdrawfirearms.square.site

We haven't been posting lately because the waitlist for training remains long, but we ARE still running classes. If you want to be added to the list so you can get a spot in a future class, contact us via crossdrawfirearms.square.site We can also run Stop the Bleed as a standalone lesson.

Every time I think about skipping a run, I remember that even though they appear to suck at it and basically stumble up hill sprints, I have seen the cops in my town out running more than once, and I'll be damned if they get faster than me.

I've been bedridden this past week with a nasty virus, but I still plan to run this weekend, and you can help me support IRIS, whose work supporting immigrants and refugees is more important than ever: runsignup.com/jaelee

If you're posting about how "I guess the right doesn't believe in the 2a anymore huh" please donate to our training fund. Natural rights don't exist: you must bear arms such that they cannot be taken, alongside your allies. crossdrawfirearms.square.site/product/spon...

Demand for training exceeds our current capacity, so I'll be certifying new instructors soon. There is real fear and exhaustion in the immigrant community, and I'm forced to admit, it affects me too, so it's time to enlist more aid.

Our firearms training classes include Stop the Bleed at no additional cost. Your enemies are (ostensibly) trained to kill you. You should train to not die.

If you're snowed in today, use the time to practice your dry fire. Most defensive shootings happen at <20 feet: if your enemies are that close, you need to be <1 second to your first shot and dry fire is the best way to improve draw speed.

ICE agents have to run at a 9:36 min/mi pace. 8:40 for Border Patrol. Support this organization that does incredible work supporting immigrants and refugees, and I'll do my best to run my immigrant ass under 7:00 min/mi. runsignup.com/jaelee

I'm taking the day off partially in solidarity with the Twin Cities, and partially as a mental health day. To use the day well, I'll be making a huge batch of fresh soup for the community fridges. Please help support our efforts to feed our community: www.gofundme.com/f/mutual-aid...

Our February class is fully booked. My associate at nutmegfirearmstraining.org has a class the following weekend, running the same curriculum. We're 3 weeks into 2026. How do you think things will look 5 more weeks from now? Plan accordingly.

If you want to take a break from doomscrolling, might I suggest picking up copies of The Dual State, and Ordinary Men? You'll still be reading about doom that's very similar to what's happening, but at least you'll get that new book smell.

Every time you see someone smugly post about "2A" people not showing up to defeat tyranny or whatever, do 5 minutes of dry fire practice. Guns are tools in the service of ideology: yours and theirs. You have to be better than your enemies.

One spot remaining for our Feb 22 pistol permit and Stop the Bleed class. Maybe your enemies will never come for you. Maybe you'll be safe. Maybe. crossdrawfirearms.square.site/product/febr...

Our next pistol permit class is open for registration. It is Feb 22, and includes Stop the Bleed. crossdrawfirearms.square.site/product/febr...

Advice about what to do if ICE stops you assumes they're operating in good faith. But you should also plan for what happens if they just disappear, cripple or kill you. Fill out a contingent POA, update your will and advance directives. Create an emergency plan and review it with family.

Our next CT pistol permit class will be open for registration this weekend. It will include Stop the Bleed and is a single-day event. If you are an immigrant or BIPOC, you may take this class either at cost or free. Email me for the pricing code before you register.

I'm running for refugees and immigrants like me. It's ok to be angry, it's ok to be afraid because of what's happening, but it's not ok to stand by and do nothing. IRIS does vital work for immigrants; donate to make my miles count. In return, I'll run sub 20 for you runsignup.com/jaelee

Been busy with private lessons, but public classes will resume in February. Stop the Bleed will be included as an optional, free component before the permit class unless otherwise noted. Use the contact form on crossdrawfirearms.square.site to be informed when we set an exact date and location

Thank for helping us raise $50 last week. With that, we'll be able to purchase 100lb of produce and the required ingredient labels for the soup! But the need only intensifies as winter gets colder. Your donations go directly to feeding the hungry; we keep none of it www.gofundme.com/f/mutual-aid...

Classes are booked up through the holidays. If you're looking for another way to keep your community safe, support our ongoing effort to keep our neighbors fed: www.gofundme.com/f/mutual-aid...

It's the anniversary of John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry. If there was ever a time to be an armed minority, it was then, and it is now. Register for a firearms training class and get a gun in honor of one of the only decent dead white guys from Connecticut.

Arson is a case where Castle Doctrine applies in Connecticut.

There is currently a backlog of training requests. Please use the contact form on crossdrawfirearms.square.site to be added to the waiting list. You were advised not to wait this long, but we'll still do our best to assist in a timely fashion
