I am putting my art up in public for everyone. Pen and ink and color pencil on cardboard. Abolish ICE.

write this on my headstone

I wish all people could see fascism occurring and say, "fascism is wrong" Instead of saying "Fascism is wrong (except for these people in these circumstances, they deserve it)" who is the arbiter of who deserves it? sure hope that person doesnt choose you

Its been almost a year and this post continues to be relevant

I don't really care what anyone says, if you see people being harmed by fascism and all you can muster to say is some mealy mouthed bullshit about leopards eating faces or fafo then you are a little fascist. You have the opportunity to say "no one deserves fascism" and instead you chose to say fafo

Legal vs ethical stay whooping y’all’s asses

Monday a sprinkler valve burst in my ceiling, flooding my apartment and making it unlivable. I was lucky in that my complex had a smaller unit across the hall, but theyre still forcing me to pay the full amount of rent for my original unit for december.

Indigenous actor Elaine Miles says ICE called her tribal ID ‘fake’ | The Seattle Times share.google/oMbFHVGQtE1b...

Like, here's the thing, I want the ICE facility shut down. No ICE agent should have any quarter in this town. They should not have a bench to sit on. But if you're going to ask the government to be the ones to do it you have to consider the entire process. And I've yet to see someone explain it.

We need to bring the word "jingoism" back into the common vernacular

I'm noticing with the gay pride flag b-52 debate that non american people and gay people are getting used as cudgels in arguments to punch down at anyone assumed to have not voted blue (so like, any leftist) and then when a person is like "oh hey i dont actually condone that" They just ignore them

I would love to feed my pre-diabetic cat and my family. I don’t get paid until December. I have $170. It’s seems really pointless to ask for help that won’t come but I don’t know what else to do. venmo.com/u/rabbitfripp

Please boost so this guy doesnt have to pay for another person breaking his leg

Hearing about some very very shady stuff that happened during PDX TBoy wrestling on Oct 10th, including one person having their leg broken. Organizers are not taking accountability for the circumstances leading up to this person having their leg broken please donate to help with his medical bills

Democracy Now! was on the streets in Belém, Brazil at the first major climate protest at a United Nations climate conference since 2021.

I miss when there were JFPK events

Willem Van Spronsen was right

Democrats are not going to fire anyone in ICE. They are not going to rein them in. They are not going to arrest anyone. They are not going to punish Trump or any Republicans even if they do come back to power. Stop being delusional

My partner and I were talking a few days ago about how the endgame core message of "girl boss" and "hussle" culture is just a commercial excitedly telling you that, "you too can own a slave!" and ever since then every single advertisement hits differently. Especially the "productivity" focused ads.

Another ICE arrest Portland Oregon

Portland ICE arrests

God i cannot wait for patriotism to fucking die

i don't give a flying fuck if they tear down the north east south west central top bottom vers wing of the white house. idgaf if razing the entire national mall got SNAP turned back on I would say fucking do it then. who fcking cares. kids and nursing mothers and disabled ppl are gonna starve dude.

I heard someone recently say that "american leftist" is an oxymoron and that feels more true to me everyday You have to kill the cop in your head (really do the work to reject your american identity) before you can have actual solidarity with people who don't look like you, talk like you, etc

Idk how to explain this, but white american leftists calling themselves "volk" is a very bad sign

I have a friend who was laid off from her job in DEI a few months ago and had to move out of her apartment into a relative's home and now that relative has made the home feel unwelcome to her. Shes gay & Black and has been relentlessly applying to jobs but has not had any luck for months. $TANO915

So I am always confused by everyone’s confusion when they discover that a white person is racist.

During Ferguson the white folks we worked with did active anti racism work with other whites and taught from the pov that whites are inherently racist from the jump. Didn’t matter who your friends were, your parents, what Black ppl you used to know. They started at “no, you’re racist. Let’s talk”

Our immigrant communities are being harassed and targeted by ICE, and our region is now seeing an increase in enforcement actions and detainments. This Saturday, Oct. 25, 11am -1 pm, join me to learn how you can help identify and respond to ICE activity at PIRC’s Gresham Migra/ICE Watch training.

the most pathetic category of people on bluesky right now are the ones waving their arms saying "well *I* didnt know it was a nazi symbol." As if their ignorance makes the nazi symbol somehow less of a nazi symbol

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Needlessly infecting vulnerable and oppressed people with a preventable disease and then making sure they dont get medical care so you can track the effects? I know the US did that during the Tuskegee Experiments, i know we have medical coersion in carceral systems still/already more of the same

in 2018 proudboys used to fill waterballoons with piss and nuts and bolts and throw them at us at the pdx ice building. The Ai shit thing thats being talked about now seems childish at best, and at worst its dehumanizing folks to the point of justifying violent tactics, not just humiliation tactics

Now reading

40 pages in and we already got some bangers

Fatphobia is wild as hell, man.

I'm sure I'll get accused of being anti fun or whatever, and I'm not gonna lecture anyone about wearing inflatable costumes, etc. just try and give a shit about where you send money. on a related note, the Portland Defense Fund is doing a street faire to raise money today. details in flier

if you're going to a protest today I wish you luck. The only specific thing I will beg of you is this: don't use milk to wash out tear gas or mace. if you see a street medic with milk, yell at them until they throw it out. do not continue to spread lies about emergency medicine.

Another worthwhile stat to try and track is how many indigenous people have been detained/harrassed by ICE.

no see if we just out american them 🤔 if we are simply more american 🤔 wait no, i hear it

If even a quarter of the people who will show up today really committed, we could be storming the Tacoma detention center and have families reunited by dinnertime. Has this system really bought us so thoroughly that we aren't willing to risk our position in it by pushing back?

Yes yes. This can be extrapolated to every facet of our lives. Our jobs, the masks we wear to feel safe, the friends we choose to associate with... Everything.

I wonder how many people don't know that Alaska had a Typhoon because it affected Indigenous people at a disproportionate rate.

ALERTA ALERTA PDX! calling for medics, de-escalators, community support, artists, scallywags! the “No Kings” protest is ending at this location. we need to show everyone that marching in a circle on a weekend ISN’T FUCKING WORKING! People are still being kidnapped & held w/o due process by nazis
