Wut??? You mean it's easy to avoid raping children? I thought that was just something that automatically happened once you've stolen a billion dollars.

Oh sure, send Tom Homan in, that'll fix things right up. Maybe if everyone just scatters bags of cash around, he'll tell Trump to call off ICE. Fucking evil, opportunistic imbeciles.

For sure. Mutual aid is what I'd love to get involved with.

Agreed. I still go to protests but inevitably I see someone that triggers me (I'm working on this and it's a lot better). So I'm more-so looking for the behind-the-scenes work, but without connections- usually built through protesting etc- it feels like a catch-22 but I can't stand not doing smthng.

Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm working through the PTSD and I refuse to let it get the best of me. And I really feel like community would make a world of difference. I just want to help.

Do you have any recs for someone who just moved to NYC? I've been trying to find community to do stuff IRL, but every time I try it just doesn't pan out. I have no friends because my best friend sexually assaulted me and no one believed me. So I'm just isolated with no idea how to make a difference.

I'M FUCKING ANGRY AND YOU SHOULD BE TOO!

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!

They absolutely do and it's disgusting. I'm honestly surprised it took this long for it to wake me in the night, but I never remember my dreams/nightmares and I focus heavily on my sleep hygiene because my livelihood is on the line. All of our lives are on the line.

And the ICE nightmares have begun for me. I knew it was only a matter of time. I have multiple rare conditions and need every bit of sleep I can get. This is a mass disabling event with gargantuan physical, financial, and mental consequences. This is what terror and tyranny looks like. ABOLISH ICE!

Operation "Catch of the Day"?!?!? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME WITH THIS SHIT?!?!? This is all a cruel game to them. Rot in hell, assholes.

This is awesome - thank you!

Fantastic! Thank you so much!!! Will definitely read.

We seriously need to talk about the fragmentation our brains our experiencing, why it's happening (I'd argue mostly trauma, smartphones, and psychoactive drugs, but reasons abound), and how it's limiting our communication, logic, empathy, and ability to organize against oligarchical technofascism.

I wish nothing but misery upon them for the rest of their days.

Racism is like an invasive plant. You can cut down what's on top all you want, but it will just keep coming back. You have to dig, grind, burn, and salt the entire root structure.

We've never truly done this in the United States. Very weak attempts AT BEST. Now is the time. Accept nothing less.

Please help #booksky I need your recommendations for practical learnings on fascism/totalitarianism/this shit. I'm overworked at my job and being severely disabled leaves me with very little physical energy. But I can at least learn and pass on knowledge wherever I see it might be useful!

Nothing makes me happier than seeing ICE slip on ice! There should be a dedicated account. FEED OUR JOY!!!

Or we could, you know, abolish ICE and arrest them all.

She may not have been mad at you, dude, but I sure as fucking hell am.

I would never advocate for violence, but that is a supremely punchable face.

A counterprotester in Minneapolis on Thursday yells at people protesting the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE officer.

Can you even imagine counterprotesting a mother being murdered by our government? Not a single moment's rest for these utterly evil people! EVER!

and yet, 127k people agreeing with this 200lb waste of eyeliner is even more incomprehensible

It's more than fine, it's beautiful and human. I've been thinking a lot about the book Dopamine Nation and how pleasure and pain are two sides of a balance. When you push on one, the other rebounds. I hope all this pain will lead to unbridled joy when it's finally over.

My dog of 10 years just died from cancer. My heart felt like it was exploding into a billion pieces on his last day, especially when he literally stopped to smell the flowers someone was arranging outside a bodega (never did that before). I still laughed my ass off at his farts that night.

I'm gonna be posting about stuff that's not heavy. It's a privilege that I get to do so. We're all on this strange space rock together, for a limited time. Hope you get to make something beautiful today.

Hug your kids, bring some magic to the world.

Some of y'all don't understand the concept of a bard and it shows. Go to therapy.

My GOD some of these comments! So UNHEALED people- take a hard look at yourself! He CLEARLY ACKNOWLEDGES HIS PRIVILEGE. This is akin to the age-old human search for joy, even in the most dire of circumstances (music in WW2 camps, etc). It is meant to lift the spirit to help it fight another day. FFS

A snip from a WSJ article about the murder of Renee Nicole Good: Vance, during a lengthy appearance in the White House briefing room on Thursday, defended the Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer and criticized the woman who was killed, Renee Nicole Good, calling her a "victim of left-wing ideology." "I can believe that her death is a tragedy, while also recognizing that it's a tragedy of her own making," Vance said. The death of Good sparked protests in Minneapolis demanding immigration enforcement agents leave the city, while local officials have challenged the Trump administration's version of events."

You know what else is a tragedy of your own making, JD Vance?

YOUR FUCKING EYELINER!

GENERAL STRIKE FOR GOOD!
(Renee Nicole Good)

I don't want impeachment.

I want IMMEDIATE arrests, EXPEDITED trials, and ironclad laws to prevent them from EVER being pardoned in the future.

ALL. OF. THEM.

Pretty damn sure we all want that.

RIP Renee Good.
