The only freedoms you have are those freedoms that you hold close and defend, not only for yourself, but for your neighbors.

Green card holder from New Hampshire 'interrogated' at Logan Airport, detained Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court.

Detained, stripped naked, denied medication. This is one more way that the current administration is a fascist dictatorship. If this is happening to European green card holders, think of what is happening to undocumented immigrants, to people of color, to women, to trans people detained.

Thinking…

Tomorrow, February 28, let’s disrupt the status quo by spending ONLY at businesses that uplift our communities.

🚫 No fast food chains
🚫 No big-box retailers (Target, Walmart, Amazon, etc.)

Get rid of everything. If you exist, then you are loved by existence. What do you need? A spoon, a blanket, a bowl, a book - maybe the book you give away. Resist the need to worry, robbing everything of immediacy and peace. Resist traveling except where you want to go. Resist seeing yourself in others or them in you. Nothing, everything, is personal. Louise Erdrich, from Advice to Myself #2: Resistance (Orion Magazine, December 12, 2017) (via Whiskey River)

Get rid of everything.

If you exist, then you are loved by existence. What do you need?

A spoon, a blanket, a bowl, a book - maybe the book you give away. - Louise Eldrich

it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

I read Bug Theory by @dream-seed-arts.bsky.social this morning, and my day is about to be infinitely better 🕷️

Three books laid on a table. The titles are: LET THIS RADICALIZE YOU BY KELLY HAYES AND MARIAME KABA; ACTIVE HOPE BY JOANNA MACY AND CHRIS JOHNSTONE; BUG THEORY BY EMET ARON

new reading list just dropped

Yes

wicked / politics crossover: i saw someone on tiktok remake “no one mourns the wicked” ending, the galinda part, as singing “fuck this noise / fu-u-u-uck / this / she died alone” and i now sing that as i read the ridiculous headlines. it feels like a protective spell.
