idk dude after seeing how many protestors are being swept up weeks and months later and how many more protest leaders have died since, telling people "don't put your legal name on a public list of people who intends to hold an anti-government demonstration" seems like sound advice 🤷‍♀️

There are a lot of things I love about my job, but helping a nervous person walking into the syringe service program for the first time might be my favorite. 🥰

Really cannot overemphasize that if you feel hopeless and furious over the state of things, go do something in your community. It’s not only what needs to happen, it feels SO good. It can be whatever you have capacity for. Go walk some shelter dogs if you can’t deal w people, that 100% counts.

I know many things are terrible including things that deeply harm me and people I love but as I cautiously emerge from burnout and social isolation I am reminded how much good there is. So many people and places and things to love and give bits of my heart to. ❤️

Wild to me that the same Democrats that have been ambivalent to supportive of bans on wearing masks at protests, while simultaneously buying their police face recognition tech, while simultaneously creating federal grants for more police tech---now ask us where the protests are.

Are local folks who left FB hearing about the (mostly Ho-Chunk) people being profiled and harassed by ICE agents in the area the last few days? Tomah, La Crosse, and Osseo. Unfortunately light on details. One was reported as a solid black SUV. This is Ho-Chunk land and ICE should get off of it.

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

Some of what Trump is attempting to do is unlawful, but some of his shadier maneuvers will likely be supported by the courts. SCOTUS is on his side. I don't say this to discourage people, but as a reminder that the law cannot be our bottom line. Our obligation is to each other, not the law.

Another tip: look for local radical (or at least progressive-leaning) bookstores, community centers, etc, and then see which groups host events at them.

There are plenty of valid reasons to critique the president and his nominee for that big health entity- but disparaging one for being a 'felon' and the other for being an 'addict' isn't helping anyone. Your friends, family members, and communities can hear you too.

I know a lot of us have lost faith in electoral politics (rightly so!), but I'm here to beg you to be engaged with your local elections. City councils decide how your unhoused neighbors will be treated. School boards decide how queer and otherwise marginalized kids in your community will be treated.

One of the best things you can do right now is read books. Buy them. Borrow them from the library. Gift them. Read history. Read fiction. Read science writing. Read anything that shows you the world is bigger than what fascists say it is. Read to remember why your resistance matters. 📚💙

Issuing a #BookChallenge to the world asking not to challenge books! Decide not to read books in your own homes, it’s a decision between library grown-ups & library kids. Allow books to be books on bookshelves to show one they belong 💛 Every book isn’t for everyone, but every book is for someone ✨
