Today, ICE engaged in a dangerous, high-speed chase in Saint Paul. Their recklessness and disdain for the safety of our residents led directly to a multi-car collision, even if ICE vehicles weren't the ones to hit other cars.

“I was asked to write something…about what the KidLit community should be doing in this moment to support those of us surviving the siege. My answer to that is the same answer I have to everyone right now: Help us fight. Help us save ourselves and our neighbors in an impossible situation.”

and, I can’t believe I have to say that: queer kids need online community, because they are far more likely to be isolated, get bullied and harassed in real life, so isolating them even more is -not protecting them-.
this is also -the point of age verification-.

I actually do have the Acadian great-grandpa's non-anglicized name now, but it turns out I can try to find his paper trail or I can do resistance and I decided I gotta do the latter, but I mean. If anyone already versed in how you find papers in Canada wants to drop a website??? LOLOL

I can only imagine the logistics behind this, it is a massive undertaking but also 100 families is just... amazing.

it may be a drop in the bucket, but each drop changed lives & I'm so grateful to @ziibiing.com for organizing this and letting me (us!) be a drop. 💓

Bluesky friends, MELIA has had no one fill out an adoption application for her. She's out of the shelter, finally getting the training she needs. And no home to go to when she's done.
Please!! ❤️
