We now have 235 members of the giving circle who cover 70% of our weekly goal for these six families & camp. Not just numbers; it means that they won’t be forgotten as they still struggle to survive. Dependable help in genocide. Click "weekly": chuffed.org/project/hope...

Shh it's my decompression time where I get to drink night coffee and read science articles about space

None of my profile pics will ever be smiling because that's not a sport I partake in

I can't function properly while hungry and you shouldn't have to either. Help me devour the earth like a cosmic pit of existential reckoning and all will be as it should (Or try some peanut butter, I don't know)

5 calls makes calling reps quick and easy! 👇🏼

Tried a face mask that I got for Christmas today because sken care, and oh—oh so this is how people are looking all shiny and moist

hey bestiessssssssssssssssss voteyesornoai.com

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.

Psst. Hey. Add eggnog to your coffee 😶 and maybe a little whipped cream while you're at it ☕️

Thread of remote ways to support Minneapolis

Minneapolis is a war zone right now.

An example of, try things. Start something. Get a friend to join you. Invite others to assist, support, and create something similar for your community. Adapt to your city/local area & needs. Counter-surveillance is community care in this instance.

Youth in north Gaza opened Spark Space a year ago to serve their community, from hosting hundreds of students at the height of the siege on Gaza City for high school exams, to enabling families earn income to eat during (ongoing) famine. KEEP IT OPEN: chuffed.org/project/spar...

Some friends of ours you should consider donating to before the end of the year 👉🏽 1. East of the River Mutual Aid: MSMA wouldn’t exist with eorma, one of our anchor orgs. Support their amazing work here: actionnetwork.org/fundraising/...

I think what's worse is that it goes well-beyond (and in a way, also falls short) of a military occupation -- this isn't occupation, it's a hot war featuring a secret police militia nightmare roving and roaming and terrorizing the populace. This is brownshirts shit. ICE is a sanctioned terror gang.

Today is a day for rest and reflection. A day to rest your weary bones, and reflect upon the havoc you will wreak when you finally unleash your true monstrous form upon the world.

Fortune favors the brave. It also favors fairies who dwell in ancient forests, folks who know a little dark magic, and squirrels with mighty biceps.

They don't have capacity to terrorize more than 2-3 cities at a time. Which means they rotate teams to new cities without relief. Which means consistent resistance by fresh activists in each new city will break them over time. Which means if you're city's not occupied, rest up and get ready.

Mutual Aid Opportunity: COMMUNITY ALERT & CALL FOR SUPPORT Powwow Grounds on Franklin Avenue is now being activated as a community headquarters for ICE patrol observation, rapid response coordination, and community support in South Minneapolis.

Today was supposed to be the last day of this deal, but I'm extending it until the 14th, which is the last day to pay my back rent before they start pursuing eviction. I really need a place to live, especially given how bad Minnesota winters are. Please get in contact with me if you need an editor.

If you’re looking for some way to help.

If you're ready. There are orgs waiting for you to pick up & build systems, train, lead, volunteer, make phone trees, gather data, manage messaging, fundraise, provide legal aid, so so many ways to do something to hold up one another. We are not trapped here with them, they are surrounded by us.

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve. Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. This is not new but it is expanding.

Playlist hack for writers who need music for every scene. Start with 3 book playlists: 1. Soundtrack - dump all the songs with lyrics into this one 2. Score - all the instrumentals into this one 3. Official - as you write, move what you're listening to into this. Now it's in chronological order 😌

We close another week of the giving circle, and thanks to you, we managed a full distribution to the families this week despite the holiday. Please keep it going. Priorities: emergency healthcare for escalating medical emergencies, winter supplies, rent. chuffed.org/project/hope...

I lied, I wrote in my planner, got excited about the organization, and crossed off a week's worth of stuff in a day Tooo be fair, I slept nearly 20 hours yesterday because low iron's funny like that, but hey. I'm the most productive dizzy clown I know

I love New Year's energy, but I still want to fight the dude who decided the start of the year was in the dead of winter instead of spring like it originally was So unless you've got a time machine to let me visit Rome for a sec, my goals shall remain on paper until I un-hibernate Also morn 😒☕️

My first ever video game crush (that I can remember) Listen.. he had the same sauce as the damn Robin Hood fox, and they knew what they were doing both times

To celebrate the end of a truly awful year and the beginning of one that we all hope will be a million times better, I'm offering 50% off on my edits! I have openings as early as March, so DM or email me ([email protected]) to book today!

I'm getting ready for the new year and I'm very excited to share that I already have some proofreading projects lined up! Now is the best time to book in with me. Project not quite done yet? Don't worry; you can book in advance and I'll hold space for you.

Thinking of turning my portable heater and fan on at the same time

No, not all men, granted, but if you’re not actively speaking out against those men then you are one of them.

Universal basic income is nothing less than a goddamn human right just as much as universal healthcare and education are. And I don't care if anyone works less because we should be working less. We should have shorter weeks instead of bullshit jobs. We have the productive capacity to meet ALL NEEDS.

Daily tree fact: The older a tree gets, the more human bones they collect and hoard beneath their roots to nourish them through the winter. That’s basic science.

Merry Christmas!

Happy holidays & Yule to those who celebrate, and a fine winter day to all 🫶🏻❄️ I stayed up late wrapping presents & watching Anastasia, and now that food & gifts have been had, I'll away to my goblin den for some snacking & reading 😌 Enjoy the Whisper Tree 🎄

Point #1 cannot be stressed enough. Read widely. Read nonfiction, read science and nature journals, read poetry. A prose sentence is built from everything you read. If you read little or nothing your prose will be made of the same.

Tips on reading critically for writing self-improvement: 1) Read your genre & outside of it. Read a lot. You build a subconscious feel for pacing & story beats 2) Look up words you don't know or aren't sure about 3) Notice a style you like? Analyze its sentence & paragraph structure. What works?

Nap nightmares are especially bullshit, why is my snack sleep also horror flavored?? 🤨

A simple ask: click “weekly” or “monthly” on a coffee or any amount of spare change that disappears every once in a while. It'll help six families & a camp survive. That means shelter, healthcare, baby supplies, food. Pretty simple. chuffed.org/project/hope...

"You look like you drink weak coffee" feels like a good insult

Hey friends, a local family could really use a blessing this holiday season. Anything you can donate helps, even if all you can do is share, I know they'd appreciate it.

People who don't care about protecting the planet have the self-preservation instincts of a pencil eraser
