I left Seattle at 11pm last night and arrived in Portland around 2:30am. I spent much of the trip awake, watching the rain on the windows, looping Alva Noto & Ryuichi Sakamoto's Vrioon: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Prx6...

spent the day wandering Seattle, meeting friends, eating, drinking, reading, and generally pretending like the country isn’t a dumpster fire. I think that’s what the kids call ‘self care’

If you were out today, take a minute to appreciate the volunteers who made that shit happen so could just roll up, inflate your suit, and wave your sign… and abolish ICE.

I’m a bit late to the whole ‘We Rate Dogs radicalising the dog park’ thing, but here we are: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGpJ...

Earlier today I was listening to one of the hosts from Here and Now repeatedly ask a resident from Southeast Chicago whether throwing rocks at ICE was justified. And finally she just said, "They invaded our community. They have machine guns."

dear family and friends, I know you heard a thing on the news… but let me help: isportlandburning.com

from their own video, the most tumultuous part of Portland… if these assholes think this is a war zone, we truly are fucked if an actual enemy feels bold.

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
