Ugh. I knew it. When it got into Oracle’s hands it was going to go downhill. 🙄

Sad that this is triggering to so many

I can’t wait for this halftime show!!

I still remember Keri Shrug doing the vault on basically one leg forever ago. Not sure where it ranks but I believe she had broken her ankle.
I’m sure there are many more stories like that. Impressive what Lindsey did for sure though.

If you were a journalist or creative that was laid off by the Washington Post and you want to work for an independent, pro democracy news outlet, Democracy Docket is hiring. bit.ly/45Qaw4K

Very “The Last Unicorn” vibes. I absolutely love it!

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

I read “Farewell to Manzanar” when I was in high school and I was horrified.
The fact that we are repeating these horrors makes me furious and so incredibly sad.
And the knowledge that children TODAY in the USA are living like Anne Frank…
When will we ever learn?!? 😭

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

🇺🇸 Temperatures in the upper-midwest were well below zero today, but the people in Minnesota braved the frigid cold, and showed up to fight for ALL OF US.

🇺🇸 I hear a lot of people saying we aren't doing enough to fight Trump's fascism. Well, go tell that to the patriots in Minnesota.

Timeline cleanse…

The curse of Buffalo continues. I'm sorry Bills fans.

TEXT: Out on patrol with two friends this morning and I kept seeing the beautiful web being woven in Minnesota right now. Not with new materials but woven with wisdom into what was already here. I could feel this net with my hands, this connection as we passed that group of three on the corner of Cedar and Lake, this connection as we listened to someone doing dispatch while their kid yelled in the room behind them. I thought of this today stopping by a locally beloved Mexican restaurant to grab some food for the family and having the owner step up with tears in his eyes and reflect on how much they feel cared for and then the security guard stepped over and asserted that this is what we do, we care for our own. He said, tell people we have them, we've got them and we will keep them safe. All of the worst stories you read are true and there are more of them than what shows up on social media, but there is also this, everything I am writing here in the same morning, driving over to northeast and a junior high has just done a walk out, they are lining a major road in their "are those pants they look like pajamas" clothes and all are holding signs and I am on the phone with someone and I burst into tears when I pass them. This is a net and I remember this very old fishing net someone showed me years ago, guiding my fingers to feel where the net had been repaired over and over again, like scars in the fibers that strengthen rather than break. ICE is sharp, knives that cut with small knicks and sometimes great full arm thrusts that shove and tear through this connected set of scars and fresh material and there are wounds and this is violence and some of you beloveds are being stopped on the road because of how you are read and I am not being stopped and none of this is ever ok and still, I feel the pull and tug of the net that is larger than anything I have experienced

TEXT: before. Is there anyone in these cities not showing up in some way? I can't remember the last time I saw or heard anyone have words other than how can I show up? There is a net and it has always been here, it is always here, it's just that sometimes it's hard to see and all that is happening in Minneapolis is that some of the confusion is fading and what is visible is the link and weave and stumble and steady between us. May we keep repairing it as it frays, from those outside and from the rising tension we hold within and may this net grow with wisdom and may bodies tired of holding themselves up alone someday feel like they can relax into the steady certainty of something much bigger than the size of their skin.

Good morning. I read this dispatch from a comrade in Minneapolis this morning and thought that some of you might appreciate it too.

I need all yall that dont speak spanish to learn a few words, real quick.

pls RT

"La Migra" - common slang for ICE

"La Patrulla" - "The Patrol"

"No digas nada" - "Say nothing."

¿Cómo te llamas? - "Whats your name?"

"¿Quién quieres que llame?" - "Who do you want me to call?"

Escondense - Hide

He’s right. And we all know it.

If I knitted…
This is a genius idea.

I'm reading the chapter on Hope and Grief Can Coexist from the book, Let this Radicalize You.

It says "We know that hope is essential to social change because in order to make change, someone must first imagine that it can be so."

I need to remind myself of this.

btw if there are any #indieauthors interested, i'm doing a monthly reading list/review specifically for new/indie books on my blog and i'm open to recs. ✨ i'll help get the word out there for your books!

LOVE THIS! It’s one of our favorite places. Check out Hoopla too. So many apps work with library cards!

Considering how Indiana played yesterday- that’s quite a compliment. 😉

WHAT. A. GAME.

YES. To all of this.
And Happy Birthday Dave!

Our Captain Jackie Sparrow clearly is wondering why we have interrupted her on this #Caturday. 🤣
