They've found a safe place to go but could still use some cash to move their stuff across the country!

Oh God how heartbreaking it is when your child is in pain and looks at you as if saying, 'Save me, save my life, and who else but you can save me? How my heart burns with agony over my helplessness to save his life I wish I hadn't been born poor I wish I were the one to He dies gofund.me/52a8eee2b

I have a thread here of things that made me recoil from my phone and I just want to say this is the opposite. This is what the internet is supposed to be. I open a magic box that connects me to everything on earth and meet a mud eating bird named Timberdoodle who screams "I DANCE, BOUNCE AND STRUT!"

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps. If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

The Five Moods

1/ ProPublica collected handwritten letters in mid-January from children held at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center, the same facility where 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was taken. Hundreds of kids are still detained. We’ll let the children’s words speak for themselves. 🧵

5/ “I have already spent more than 60 days waking up eating the same repetitive meals…going to the doctor and that the only thing they tell you is to drink more water and the worst thing is that it seems like the water is what makes people sick here…” From 12-year-old Ender, detained 60+ days

Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

time to be loud about this terrible decision. discord.com/company-info...

fuck off

I suppose I also take this personally bc attacks on craftivism land poorly with me as a Native person. Beading together, making regalia, sewing in groups — this is at the heart of how the women on my reservation gather to do healing work, political ed, and mutual aid. This has long been true.

for my latest @us.theguardian.com talked to teens leading and joining anti-ICE walkouts from TX to MD to WI. one NYC teen: "I feel scared [of ICE] every day... But I’m not going to let that stop me, because bravery is just the positive way to say you’re scared, and I’d rather be brave than scared."

*new* from me: As pitchers and catchers report to Spring Training, three front office staffers spoke to me about helping Latino baseball players and their families navigate an America ravaged by ICE raids. They say guidance from MLB has been “minimal” so their teams are getting creative.

I really wish we had a well funded, power critical fourth estate interested in investigating the source of this clearly coordinated effort by payment processors. Like, we keep seeing the impact of it, but I really want to know the "who" and the "why" beyond nebulous surveillance/puritanism forces.

One of the throughlines of Le Guin's entire oeuvre is the idea that utopia can't ever be a *finished product* -- that you have to do the work of remaking it, over and over again, every day. "You cannot buy the Revolution; you cannot make the Revolution; you can only be the Revolution."

Second time in 3 days I’m posting this Vonnegut quote wrt AI.

I use the same scheduling app that the news sources on here use, again, within ToS. Each post is unique and doesn’t seek to manipulate engagement. And below, you can find detailed verification info on the campaigns I share. All of our accounts are public.

If you see me on here, my posts are scheduled (which doesn’t violate ToS btw). Once or twice a day, I check in just a little. I’m unable to answer texts or make calls. Thank you for understanding. Last check, fifty away for winter supplies for a family of 8: tinyurl.com/helpseraj

The Canada Boat to Gaza team is planning again to set sail in spring 2026 as part of the freedom flotilla coalition, to challenge and attempt to break Israel’s illegal siege and blockade on the Gaza Strip. Follow along for more updates. Read more here: canadaboatgaza.org/2026/02/06/o...

Our search function isn't so fantastic that you can narrow to translated Palestinian fiction (unfortunately, our fault in not categorizing properly) but you can just search "Palestinian" & find plenty of wonderful literary things: arablit.org?s=Palestinian

There are people in the world who say that there are only two genders: male and female. But the heart and soul have much more personality. It's very sad that people who can't accept this sometimes utter very harsh words. You were born to live freely. Chiitan is an ally of transgender people🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈

If you’re into books written by people instead of assembled by AI slop, I just finished this one, which is about a Black guy who quits the CIA to train Black freedom fighters in Chicago, and I can’t stop thinking about it.

the thing i'm waiting for with the ai romance novel lady is for another scammer to figure out that purely ai-generated material w no human authorship is generally not considered to be protected by copyright in the US rn, and saving themselves the 45 mins per book by reselling hers

Im sorry did young robert's trials and tribulations teach these people nothing

Uggghh I hate when my stupid dog’s rage meter fills up and he starts hitting me with a giant bone until I hear the toll of 3 bells

In Gaza’s war, my children lost their home and safety. We live in a torn tent in cold rain. Illness weakens their small bodies, and aid rarely reaches us. Their pain is greater than their age. Please, we urgently need help. 💔 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Your support can help my children start a new life. gofund.me/ef0ddd607

Every support from you means food on my family’s table, warmth in our hearts, and full stomachs for our children.💔 With your support, we can keep going, and with your sharing, hope reaches even further.🌹

Psssst. It's my fabulous partner's birthday. You should go check out the literary journals they run! beestungmag.com alocasia.org anmly.org And, if you can, consider chipping a few bucks in so they can keep beestung going for another year!

I think all Black people should - for having gotten it stolen from and then weaponized into a racist stereotype against us - get free fried chicken and every other soul food forever. Happy Black History Month.

This entire administration exists solely to kill and torture brown and black people and to protect and promote the Epstein Class. That's the entire job of this Federal government. Why should we fund this

contrast this incredible use of dildos as missiles with the dogshit way right wingers were using them, which was to promote a crypto scam by attempting to sexually humiliate WNBA players

Gaza is a wasteland of starvation and destruction, bombs raining from the cold winter sky, hunger dogging every step. Please give what you can to help my friend Sama'a. chuffed.org/project/157569
