Fuck being "too emotional" about the occupation
There is no such thing
It is an excuse for cowards to stay home and never allow their lives to be touched by solidarity, even accidentally

This framing is brilliant.
Too often we are told that someone is "too close" or "too involved" to be able to exercise good judgment. But I agree completely that not participating in the defense of this community disqualifies you from participating in its recovery.
Let how exhausted I look here give you a window into how hard mutual aid organizers have been pushing to keep our neighbors safe and housed when no one else will. Please write to your councilmembers and the mayor and urge them to pass Pause Evictions, Save Lives!

Existing actual social safety nets like Minneapolis Public Housing Authority and St. Paul’s equivalent are among the biggest evictors in their respective county’s court right now.
There is no institutional support for keeping people housed from non-profits or the public sector.
People are still trapped in their homes in my neighborhood here in Jason's ward, unable to go to work (at jobs which may not even exist anymore), sick with worry over how they’ll pay utilities and remain housed.
It's not over. ICE is still here, and the least we can do is afford families more time.
ICE was still riding around dangerously at 1 AM last night. That’s why we can’t rest until every single one of them is gone

My love for him will never fade. Yor are my pride and my joy - you've made a change that cannot be broken..

Mass death on the other side of the world has no reality outside of what space it takes up on the american tv news cycle. If it were otherwise, the old normal would have been as insupportable as the new

Ya'll are amazing. A lot of bills are hit with this already as well as rent. That last little bit isnt a rush and maybe i even find a way to get it with a random bit of work something.
