These are prisons. The criminalization of homelessness and push towards mandated, coerced medical interventions and civil commitment—a bipartisan project—was always going to lead us here. This is why when we talk about, strategize and organize around abolition, we must include ALL carceral spaces.

Ahmed is trapped in the North and desperately wants to get out

my full @rollingstone.com story on the likelihood democrats abandon trans people to fund the government unless they face a mass movement calling on them to hold the line cc @parkermolloy.com

If democrats hadn’t been the feckless wimps they are and actually stood up unequivocally for the rights of trans people in this country, Trump wouldn’t see this as a viable pressure point. Giving into fascists only gets you more fascism, as always.

For anyone still questioning the level of control Israel has and exerts over Gaza (and for anyone thinking fundraisers must be scams because Palestinians in Gaza can't possibly have cell service):

It's been clear from the treatment of Palestinian accounts on here that moderation standards are applied selectively, not uniformly and without bias, and @moderation.bsky.app @safety.bsky.app letting this disinformation targeting trans people stay up is the latest example.

This shows how shallow (or warped) the thinking of pundits is. George Floyd was killed by the state. That was the salience to protestors, and the motivation was to change the actions of the state. Kirk was not the victim of systemic state violence, but they somehow imagine he was.

Alright I have a non monetary request to help someone in Gaza! @rerogaza8.bsky.social is working on her studies and had to produce a podcast episode- so she interviewed @ssaakkhheerr2.bsky.social about his life in Gaza. Part of her grade is based on views- so give it some views!

I do not care about “respectability” I care about folks getting rounded up to camps during a time they are counting on inciting a riot and will be encouraging it Do NOT snatch federal charges out the jaws of anonymity

Um...as the old saying goes, when you want to convince people you aren't being Weekend At Bernie's, you open your press conference with serious unexplained technical glitches.

Heads up: ICE took a Brazilian trans woman in DC. Her name is Alice Correia Barbosa. No one has been able to find her. If anyone hears anything at all, please DM me or reach out to OP on Reddit: www.reddit.com/r/washington...

I was hoping this would be resolved but it appears that Mona isn’t making anymore posts so I’m going to speak on it. Mona gave her account over to the same person who was running Fidaa’s. I’m assuming she did this for help promoting and to avoid her account getting shut down for being in Gaza.

So Bluesky deleted an account I made (here, in the US) to provide updates on the condition of my friend Sondos Jad Al-Haq and her family of four, who are in Gaza. Sondos has never used this account. She does not have the password, and has never logged into it. @mommunism.bsky.social

The concerted effort that went into "warning" everyone about how Gazans were actually scammers in slave cities in Myanmar wasn't about anyone's safety, it was about making everyone feel better about doing nothing

📍We are starving… No food, no medicine. I've lost half my weight, and dizziness follows me every day. Prices are insane, and we can’t afford anything. Please help us survive — your donation could save a life.🙏🍞 ✅️Verified by : @mommunism.bsky.social 👉👉 gofund.me/aa119790

Israel is intentionally starving the people in Gaza, we have let them, and no propaganda campaign can obscure this truth. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

This was the goal of those unconstitutional executive orders, by the way.

NEW FROM @reuters.com: Top U.S. law firms have sharply scaled back their efforts to challenge the federal government in court, especially on behalf of pro bono clients, in the face of threats from President Trump. www.reuters.com/investigatio...

The struggle to get aid is draining me. I've lost so much weight, and hunger is breaking me. I need flour and food. Your donation is a spark of hope. Please help me stay alive 🥺🍞💔 @mommunism.bsky.social 👉 gofund.me/fee53484

Ahmed’s message: “[T]ell everyone that my brother died trying to get a bag of flour. A human life has become worth a bag of flour. Where is the humanity in this?”

This website refusing to allow people in Gaza the dignity of even sharing the deaths of their family members

Ahmed’s brother Omar died today- his account has been deleted but he wanted people to know about his brother so I am sharing. www.gofundme.com/f/help-ahmed...

Then let the fucking trucks in and stop starving everyone.

Another question I get is "if we donate to those fundraisers, aren't we then only saving Palestinians who have access to and are good on social media"? Yeah. Maybe. What's our option? Starve them all to death and help no one for the sake of equality?

Salam I urgently need someone who knows a person in Ramallah who can help me at Bank of Palestine. This is extremely urgent, and if you know anyone who works there or can assist in any way, please contact me as soon as possible. Much respect and appreciation. 🙏🏽

The clerks where I get my lunch said a man came in last week and asked them where the public entrance to 26 Federal Plaza was. He locked his bike outside, and it’s been there since.

Whatever version of America comes out of this, it has to be one where we ensure that people who could gleefully subject other human beings to treatment like this can never rise to power again.
