The rage you are feeling comes from the same place inside your heart as the love.
This is why you refuse to accept a world where cruelty reigns and the fire consumes all.
You have known hope and joy and kindness like you have known water.
And justice is a river that demands
you do not give up on it.
- Nikita Gill

The grief the grief the grief.

And the rage and love.

We have it in us to be so much better than this.

'I want his name to be known': Wife of immigrant injured at ICE facility shooting speaks out Stephany Gauffeny says she wants the world to know that her husband, Miguel Angel Garcia-Hernandez, is more than "just an immigrant or a detainee, or a criminal."

A victim of the shooting at the ICE facility is UNCONSCIOUS, in critical care, may not survive, his wife is about to give birth, and ICE IS KEEPING HIM SHACKLED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED:

I just unlocked a new level of rage.

Today, the UN officially designated Israel’s assault on Gaza as a genocide.

As a party to the Genocide Convention, the U.S. has a legal obligation to obey our own laws, stop weapons sales to Israel, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

End the genocide. Ceasefire now.

I’m witnessing the deliberate starvation of Gaza’s children – why is the world letting it happen? | Nick Maynard A permanent ceasefire, the free and safe flow of aid, and the lifting of the blockade are needed now – all could be achieved with political will, says UK surgeon Nick Maynard

β€œFrom inside Nasser hospital, I am telling you: this is deliberate. This is preventable. And this must stop now.”

Let's be real that bill that will decimate SNAP, Medicare and ACA will pass the House. We can and should be outraged but that's not going to do much for immediate need as people lose benefits and coverage. Here's a thread of resources if you or someone you know finds themselves in need πŸ§΅πŸ‘‡πŸΎ

Q: Why are fish poorly educated?
A: All the schools are below C level.

Now that you've sat through that, please watch this video on animal collective names.

New images could change cancer diagnostics, but ICE detained the Harvard scientist who analyzes them Without scientist Kseniia Petrova’s expertise, no one can fully unlock the data’s potential, putting crucial advancements in early cancer detection at risk.

Almost every line of this story would have been simply unbelievable a few months ago:

β€”Pioneering cancer researcher;
β€”*Arrested* at airport in Boston;
β€”Now indefinite ICE detention in Louisiana;
β€”"Crime": not declaring some frog-embryo samples for research.

Read it.

The Massachusetts governor, the city, and the university needs to drop everything to locate and free this girl and make sure this doesn't happen again.

This is DEFCON-1. If they do this to someone who wrote an op-ed in a college newspaper, they will do this to anyone they don't like.
