Today you should send love to your trans friends. Tomorrow, too. Maybe every day for a while.

Boise delivered some moments in 2025. This one, and the follow up in next post, are highlights that make this a place worth loving and fighting for.

Overall, it's been an overwhelmingly beautiful and difficult year in Boise. Closing it out with a corrected version of this sentence, failed while typing in the rain, possibly crying: It's a packed house as rain falls. See ya next year.

We have done *a lot* this year. With trans communities under attack, good information and unrepentantly radical journalism fighting for our liberation is more important than ever. Here's a thread with some highlights of TNN'S coverage in 2025. You can find all of it at transnews.network

The scope of Trump's campaign to drive trans Americans from public life is vast. On the last day of 2025, Evan Urquhart attempts to capture all of what we lost. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

Kinda fitting that the last post of the year, referencing a typo from an earlier post, had to be deleted due to a typo Anyway, I think it's right this time. Bye!

All of Us versus Tech Dystopia

Weirdo behavior to drive around and peer into daycares to look for kids.

Visiting daycares between Christmas and New Years and being surprised that there aren't kids there is wild, by the way. Going to an elementary school in the summer: WHERE ARE THE KIDS??? WHAT ARE YOU HIDING??

Yesterday, the man who put a bounty on Boise's mayor showed up at a Boise immigrant's daycare to record himself for Twitter. He found nothing, her papers were in order and the daycare has no record of impropriety, according to post, which got a lot of attention. He plans to target others, he says.

Last year, more than 700,000 people were officially counted as homeless, the highest number ever recorded. Nearly 150,000 of them were children.

Stuff your Kindle now! Everything is 99 cents (except Mirrored, Darkly because the Zon won't let me sell it below 1.99). Twelve books - award winning horror and fantasy! #Booksky

A classic western “socialism for the rich” situation.

NEW from @azrww.bsky.social: We wondered what Turning Point would look like after Charlie Kirk's murder. At this year's AmericaFest, his friends, colleagues & wife are making hay on his grave while bickering over which racists are too racist for polite company in front of neo-Nazi attendees.

An Idaho undocumented man with no criminal record has been detained in Nevada for more than a month. Far from home and his attorneys, his family says they've had to talk him out of signing voluntary removal papers out of desperation. https://ow.ly/GeWp50XQbNF

This is intended to be a heads up that our project is increasingly precarious. We'll share more in January along with an outline of how we plan to address our financial sustainability. In the meanwhile, we appreciate your continued support and hope that you'll keep us in mind when buying books! ❤️‍🔥 3/

Audre Lorde and I think this is a bad tool to count on to dismantle the house or Senate

It's incredible what people carry with them way out to the fringe. It takes work to understand the tech to propagate a node and even more to learn how to format a page in micron, the markdown language of the platform. How many people will see it? Of that, how many will value it? Fascinating.

"On this text-only internet-like network, users have built a lot of creative pages." "Users of this tech are enthusiasts, people who embrace the 80’s style text-only pages and those who see the value of [this platform] as a way to share ideas and information about things that they care about."

"One of the prisoners on hunger strike in support of Palestine Action has lost the ability to speak and another is unable to stand without passing out, campaigners have said as the protest entered its 56th day." www.the-independent.com/news/uk/home...

Boise exvangelicals are always saying this

This was published in my local newspaper yesterday 💔🤬 #Idaho peeps, if you've not already read this, PLEASE take the time. It's not a happy read, but it is soooo important.

"We’re still capable of kindness, solidarity, and the occasional miracle disguised as basic decency. That’s not nothing."

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

We've published a zine version of "At the Turning of the Tide," an account of the first year of the second Trump administration including an analysis of how to fight our way out of the Trump era together. Please print these out and distribute them far and wide. crimethinc.com/zines/at-the...

Seriously, read it. It highlights some VERY, VERY important issues that affect you. You also don't need to be a turbonerd (like me) to make many of these happen.

Friendly reminder that @grapheneos.org is a thing that exists. I've been using it for over six months now with zero Google apps installed, and I'm very happy with my choice. Cut google out of your life.

Trying to form an analysis btw the tears & anger. But there is no new analysis outside of what we don’t already know. Esa was the best and she died way too young. Housing. Now. Fuxk capitalism. RIP friend.

as a boomer, a lot of this is way over my head - yet i paid particular attention to the section: PHONE - THAT SURVEILLANCE DEVICE YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT read: “Before we get to those niche considerations, let's talk instead about things that everyone can implement.”

There's crews and groups all over the country getting into self-hosted cloud solutions and LoRa networks for their communities. It's been really gratifying connecting with some of them as we worked on this and put it out. Those kinds of projects really show that another world is possible.

Hi all! Welcome to OOPS! All Mutual Aid, where I will be posting stories of communities organizing to support each other and build power to dismantle capitalism, around the US and the world.

So I went ahead and did it! Check out @oopsallmutualaid.bsky.social for stories of, and resources for, mutual aid organizing.
