Build long-term infrastructure, not moments 

ICE relies on exhaustion and isolation. Counter that.

Sustainable actions
Offer ongoing skills: admin help, grant writing, meal trains.

Help orgs maintain databases, follow-ups, logistics.

Use your platform as a tool, not a stage

If you have reach, treat it like a scalpel-not a megaphone.

Acceptable posting: direct links to vetted orgs, clear calls to fund, volunteer, or attend specific actions, amplifying immigrant lead voices without additional commentary. 

Red flags: self-congratulatory language, trauma reposting, centering your fear, anger or "awakening"

Pressure power where you actually have leverage

ICE doesn't operate in a vacuum. 

Effective pressure: local officials (mayors, sheriffs, DAs), employers complicit in raids, landlords collaborating with enforcement.

Not effective: yelling at strangers online, vague "abolish ICE" posts with no local follow-through.

Decide your risk level-then act accordingly

Let's be honest, not everyone can do everything
 

Low risk: donate, translate, admin support, childcare 

Medium risk: Court accompaniment, community organizing 

High risk: civil disobedience (only with training and legal prep).

a screenshot excerpt from The Level Design Book that calls bullshit on shape and colour psychology. i've been teaching versions of this in my general ed art appreciation class and have become increasingly uncomfortable with it while lecturing, but it never fully surfaced (because i have a lot of other stuff to attend to) until i read this, which is when it really hit me. one of the reasons i couldn't go through with the human communication major is because i could easily cherrypick examples that reinforced my position on something, and the prof didn't call me out on that. the colour/shape thing is so much more culturally ingrained that it became so natural that it must be actively thought about.

The Level Design Book by @radiatoryang.bsky.social @andrew-yoder.bsky.social et al is informative but more importantly has personality. i want more educational resources to be idiosyncratic and fun

Fox Fact:
I suffer from Bipolar disorder!
it’s been a difficult battle but i’ve found meds that really help!!
It’s sucked having people I thought were friends call me unstable and crazy, but my real friends are patient and caring.

a screenshot of text from a website. it reads: 

The History of the January 1 Birthday
The tradition dates back to the early days of organized horse racing, long before electronic timing and online records. Race organizers needed a simple way to group horses by age since a horse’s age often determines what races they can enter. Instead of tracking every horse’s exact birth date (which would have been a logistical nightmare), they decided that all thoroughbreds would share one official birthday: January 1.
