Sharing from a friend:
If you live in California and see street vendors and you have the cash to spare, buy from them so they can get off the street as soon as possible.

Steely resolve? Seriously? Might want to give your jaw a rest.

1/ As a white person who has lived in CA for 20+ years can I explain a few basic facts to white people living elsewhere?

A Chicano/Mexican accent doesn’t mean you’re undocumented or even an immigrant at all.

Mexican flags at protests/events/businesses…it’s like the Irish flag or harp.

Where are you, Senator? Come to Los Angeles and see for yourself who the violent ones are in this situation.

Los Angeles: if you get tear gas or see other people who have been and someone calling themselves a medic tries to use milk to wash their eyes out SLAP THAT MILK JUG OUT THEIR FUCKING HAND. MILK DOES NOT WASH OUT TEAR GAS.

Just use bottled water please.

Also reports of ICE presence in nearby Cerritos, Compton, and Long Beach. Rumors that action may also take place in Orange County but not confirmed... though the OC sheriff has been very visibly out in force today.

Raid in Paramount, reports of others in Compton and Long Beach. OC sheriff out in force so likely one coming in OC as well.

Be vigilant and safe.

Don't they have actual jobs to do?

Ever wanted to report a church for violating their tax exempt status and engaging in politics? Here is how.

I'm sad to hear they are so short-sighted and petty.

Small bright spot to hopefully improve your day: I just saw someone quoting your entire statement in an antifascist group from the other side of the country verbatim, so you're inspiring others across the nation.

Signal boost: possible ICE vehicles (matches description, government plates) Spotted on 405 northbound near 110 freeway interchange at 7:45 AM Pacific.

Everything is horrible, but at least I have this little bit of adorableness to keep me grounded.

Resist Bot is amazing and you should totally be using it. Just saying.

So many quackers

Oof, I know that feeling. May your recovery be swift.

Little One has been willing to explore inside a bit but still too skittish to get close. Progress is progress, though.

I had wondered why you disappeared off Facebook. That is so shitty, sorry you have to deal with it.

You will read countless times today that the LA mayor cut the LA Fire Department's budget by $23 million.

That is a lie.

The budget was actually *increased* by $50 million.

Work this week....

Can I get a refund on 2025? It's still within the free trial window.

Happy Yule and Merry Solstice! Remember it is always darkest before the dawn.

I saw a car on the freeway yesterday literally COVERED in holiday lights and I was so mad it wasn't dark yet. I want to see how distracting it is all lit up.!

I actually live in this district and can attest that there was actually a big push for Tran running up to election day. This wasn't a steal, this was a community fed up with Michelle Steel and her bullshit.

I am cold and the dryer ate one of my gloves that I used while working.

It's going to be a long Monday.

So... guess this is a thing now.
