There is no compromising with this regime, because regimes don't compromise. These people are fascists. Fight fascists always. No playing to their language or moved goalposts. No taking their statements as legitimate and reporting them. And then PROSECUTE THEM. Every last one of them.

I've heard directly from hundreds of children at Dilley. One young girl who shared her story with me grew up in the United States and her stepfather is a U.S. citizen. She said that the guards are mean to her, she is afraid, and that she is worried she will die in detention.

Hey we live in hell so how about buying some wound treatment for medics who have to be out on the street patching up their neighbors instead of *not* doing that and living the lives they lead before the goonsquad came to town.

Originally, I wasn't going to say a word. I never wrote about 3D-printing face shields during the pandemic. Didn't want to make that about me. But I need you to know that this is easy. I'm not doing anything special. Robots print them in my sleep. You can do this too.

My man, you are 79 years old and well experienced in the arts and entertainment industry. Have you never encountered a bad actor who makes one thing and does another, or heard of someone becoming BATSHIT INSANE and DOUBLING DOWN? Perhaps you could have a look at ALMOST EVERYTHING that is happening?

Imagine wanting to talk to JKR at this point to get her read on things. “"I thought, 'Why is this a factor at all?'" Lithgow said at the time. "I wonder how J.K. Rowling has absorbed it. I suppose at a certain point I’ll meet her, and I’m curious to talk to her."”

Audre Lorde, in a 1989 commencement address, said, "Remember this, despair is a tool of your enemies. That rumor, 'You can’t fight City Hall,' is circulated by City Hall. Facing the realities of our lives gives us the motivation for action, it gives us the power to change. You are not powerless."

When you register your name in the Icelandic phonebook you can choose to state your profession. And they have a pretty loose definition of what exactly a profession entails. This person for example has opted for „þjóðhetja“. It means „National Hero“.
