in case you're curious about how angry Minnesota is about ICE, it was -20 today

Autistic Insights on Meltdowns, Aggression, and Self-Injury — THINKING PERSON'S GUIDE TO AUTISM It’s important to remember that when an autistic person is struggling or having aggression, they are not being “bad,” and it's not personal.

It’s important to remember that often, when an autistic person is struggling, they are not being “bad” or trying to do something to you personally—even though it can feel like that, especially if they’re screaming at you or making you angry. Per Brent White:

Friends, I know money is short all around now, so if u are not in a position to donate, could you please boost the signal to help my family members in Minneapolis?

I have family at risk in Minneapolis. I just donated to Holy Trinity Lutheran Church’s Immigration Justice Fund 2 help them & their neighbors. On the donation page, you can earmark the Immigration Justice Fund as the recipient. Holy Trinity is near George Floyd Square & Renee Good's neighborhood.

What can be destroyed by the truth should be. That includes the idea that ICE's depravity "isn't American".

If you can't find inspiration in being *better* than the US' past, if you need an imagined noble past to harken to, that's a problem. That's conservative propaganda talking, throw it away.

Miss him every day.

Seven Public Health Organizations Sue Federal Government, Seek Removal of All Current CDC Vaccine Advisory Committee Members

Seven public health organizations have filed a lawsuit against the federal government to remove all CDC vaccine advisory (ACIP) members over governance and integrity concerns

Wishing these 7 Public Health organizations endurance and luck with this lawsuit.

Again with the toll records? Seriously?

Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.

ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.

This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

Don’t go down the pseudoscience rabbit hole. Please, just don’t.

Not far from where we live.

I live in Distict 11. 🤞

Correction: I deleted a post about Democrats possibly being able to redraw the rest of the New York congressional map for 2026 if this ruling stands.

This ruling is limited to the 11th District, so it's unclear how Democrats would have the ability to target other GOP districts.

Link to the ruling:

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

This. We must build a massive national movement & that will require many on-ramps…

…but no easy outs for those part of the pundit class or institutional leadership actively pushing collaboration or worse. Embrace institutional shifts, hold leaders accountable.

& FUCK that guy specifically.

And people still ask why women are afraid. “She was asking for it” is the oldest lie patriarchy tells to excuse violent men. These are the attitudes ICE recruits and power protects. State violence feeds on misogyny. May Renee Nicole Good rest in peace. #ChoosePeaceNotChaos

I hope everyone understands there’s a niche for you even if you’re not physically or mentally able to be in the streets. You could watch peoples kids who are in the streets. Provide heating stations, be the pick up and drop off person for people. Create pools to bond people out of jail.

My paternal great great grandfather was a slave.
My great great maternal grandmother was a slave
I never met them but I was told how much they loved the IDEA of Americam despite living as teenage slaves
How neither of them ceded their citizenship to ppl who saw them as less than human

They passed those sentiments down to their descendants
They never wanted us to forget that legality doesn't denote morality because slavery was legal
Seeing what the US government is doing has drained me, depressed me
But
It has not broken me

a man with his mouth open and the word i am written on his face ALT: a man with his mouth open and the word i am written on his face

But WE WILL WIN

We have no choice

I’m glad, Michael. Virtual co-regulating vibes headed in your direction.

I started having a meltdown this morning over All The Things, but this video helped me re-regulate. If you too are understandably forcasting nothing but catastrophe, I hope it helps you too. youtube.com/shorts/rH6w5...

It is important for us to acknowledge every death caused by #ICELawlessness.

This includes the murder of Keith Porter, Renee Good, Silverio Villegas Gonzalez, and at least 33 others who died in #ICE detention.

FDA deletes warning on bogus autism therapies touted by RFK Jr.‘s allies The agency used to warn of chelation, used by RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine ally David Geier.

There’s a big story everyone is missing—but this article hits on it.

We aren’t just seeing public health dismantled bc we’ve been taken over by conspiracy theorists and lunatics.

What we’re really seeing is the giant, predatory, underegulated wellness industry come to Washington.

Right now, the wellness industry is largely accepted and surprisingly trusted.

It thrives off of our broken healthcare system. You don’t get this kind of acceptance of junk science without deep, deep structural problems.

But it’s chock full of grift.

Wellness as an industry far outpaces pharmaceuticals in terms of value.

It’s because pharmaceutical companies have to show that their products work and get them approved.

Wellness is the Wild West.

Big Wellness benefits from two big lies:

1) False promises people that their health is hackable with lifestyle, dietary, and supplement changes—forget genetics, environment, socioeconomic status.

2) A David and Goliath narrative that they’re selling stuff men in suits don’t want you to know about.
