A CNN review found that of ~72,000 people who self-deported through Project Homecoming, more than half were in ICE detention when they signed up. Suffering inside facilities functions as coercion, pressure to leave rather than fight. www.cnn.com/2026/03/18/u...

I went back to capture what the astronauts said in full when the clock was stopped at T-10 minutes and they were asked if they were go for launch: This is Victor. We are going for our families. This is Christina. We are going for our teammates. This is Jeremy. We are going for all humanity.

today I learned that Great Danes are remarkably easy to pet, because they are at hip level 😆😆

And reminder if Birthright goes .. they WILL go for Tribal Sovereignty

Today's anti-trans Supreme Court ruling is an example of what we call gender fascism. Nothing is more dangerous to young people than forcing them into roles that don't fit their needs. Legislation and state violence wouldn't be necessary to impose these norms if the norms were really “natural.”

Big change for California small businesses: No more SBA loans for non-citizens Non-U.S. citizens lose access to SBA funding for small businesses, which provide the bulk of new jobs in California.

Stephen Miller allegedly urged Department of Homeland Security agents to “force confrontations” with protesters in Minneapolis in order to win a “PR battle." trib.al/NcbpdiX

I don't know what it is going to take for retail and food service managers to understand that a huge part of true retention is providing a consistent schedule to your employees. Schedule them the same, communicate if you need to change. Why is that impossible?

they're trained to lie! all this "training" that folks fuss about that they want cops to take just teaches them how to lie more cleanly & use lying to put innocent people into jail or into a grave! they learn tactics how to talk you into guilt!! it is all on purpose!!

Still scrubbing and stabilizing footage, but I thought I'd share a clip I filmed from yesterday's protest outside the MDC in LA, after the feds gassed the entire block...three times. This is after they left the gates and ran down a protestor for arrest. These guys look absolutely terrified

"Wow, you have to pay for doctor? Here in Sweden," yeah yeah i've heard this part, now tell me your opinion on blackface and Islam and migrants and killing the elderly instead of treating them for covid

This is very much worth a read, and aligns with what rapid response networks are hearing from folks who have been released from detention.

How do organizers help those folks now becoming involved in activism get further involved? There's a real gap & I know I'm not the only one wondering. What is it that folks need to jump?

I have an important gif for you

Awesome folks are going to the No Kings protests. It is never not a good time to find your local mutual aid & rapid response networks and get involved. Now is the time. Mutual aid can only get better with your help - even if it's just a weekend morning. Doesn't matter. Get involved.

hey you guys, that moments to remember video with the "ICE chase scene" is in Mexico, not LA, we gotta stop sharing forward inaccurate shit

if you're out here complaining to store management somewhere because a coworker has a water bottle or they have something personal at the register, get a fucking hobby, you absolute walnut

trying not to spike my phone into oblivion every time I see another shitty AI generated Trump meme. "I didn't know it was AI!" "but at least it's productive AI!" no, shut up, shut ALL the way up, delete that bullshit, it does nothing, you suck, stop it

haha whoops

I have opinions on this, but will just share forward instead

being a poor kid who went to a rich kid high school results in these experiences where you read a theatrical bio of a kid you went to school with talking about their broadway & hollywood work cause their parents could pay for fancy schooling while you could barely afford doing community theatre

I have no interest in this man’s problems

"everyone's moving out of California!!! no one wants to be there anymore!!!" Just read an article that says the "loss" is around 9,500 residents last year, or 0.02%. 9,500. That's probably just conservative influencers moving to Texas, lol.

it's incredible that as long as you do the right amount of bigotry you can just rob the country blind and enough people will not care, even though those same people will be filled with incandescent rage if someone uses food stamps to buy a 12 pack of diet coke

The media is fucking wild, man. Microsoft feeds you that "front page" on Edge when you open a tab, right? A Newsweek article headline's on there this morning like "Trump breaks unwanted records during latest poll." Even when he's polling abysmally Newsweek's gotta couch it in positive terms. 🙄😑

this me

Also, just like… Why the fuck do we need this? We have a series of movies. We have video games. We have a theme park. We have radio plays. We have audiobooks. We have a fucking West End play. It’s diminishing returns at this point. And it was never fucking Tolstoy.

I really can't put this more clearly. If you watch the new Harry Potter series, you are directly funding the genocide of trans people, because that's what Rowling gleefully spends HP revenue on. There's no "death of the author" here, no "there's lots of awful creators." You are funding genocide.

Oh look, a new Panto is out

yeah im bummed about sora. bummed i sora bunch of stupid fake videos

One of our best stores here had a fire last year & the city was absolutely bummed. They just announced they are reopening the costume part & it's been SO good to see nothing but continually positive comments on social media.

I am too Californian for the pronunciation of Meijer, the grocery store. Out here saying the h sound like La Jolla when it's "Meyer" like the lemon

The US government collected over $1 billion in immigration fees then refused to process the applications. No denials. No refunds. Just silence. This is the largest fee fraud in the history of the American immigration system. Here's what's happening. 🧵

Gen X and Millennials: PLEASE let go of Harry Potter. PLEASE. I get it, it was a part of your childhood. Lots of VERY problematic things were ALSO part of your childhood. Harry Potter is one of them. Oh my god let it go. You can like other things!!

huffing their own farts and posting those farts to the internet as parenting advice

crimethinc.com/breakicetour In April, anarchists from the Twin Cities who have participated in resisting ICE will travel the country sharing their experiences: what they have learned from building rapid response networks, how Minnesota thwarted Operation Metro Surge, and how to defeat fascism. 🧵⬇️

Many asking what’s on that one officer’s butt. I do not have that information at this time.

Do be taking pictures of these unmasked ICE agents in airports please

it’s just remarkable how dedicated this administration is to making people’s day to day lives worse in every way

if you're travelling and you are a documented citizen (esp if you're white/white-passing), you need to speak up & interrupt any racial profiling you witness. We are absolutely defeated if we allow ICE agents to harass people in the broad light of crowded airports. Don't be a good deputy citizen.

Sacramento's is in the John Moss Federal Building in the basement. The Moss building is right on Capitol Mall. There's a federal prison two blocks from the State Capitol holding, according to this, 558 detainees (!!).

How do police and federal agents identify and target those who participate in demonstrations? What countermeasures can we take to hinder repression? Everyone who might participate in a demonstration at some point should familiarize themselves with the security protocols radicals have developed.

Pushed across the border into a foreign country in a WHEELCHAIR. This government, this country, is irredeemably evil. Full of disgusting racists who revel in horrendous cruelty. How do we even come back from this

Elect Chicago Women, the pop-up super PAC that poured millions into the IL-08 and IL-09 primaries, just reported its donors for the first time -- and to no one's surprise, AIPAC's super PAC (United Democracy Project) dropped >$4mm into it at the start of Feb.
