This is genuinely disinformation. Vaccines are great are reducing severity, they do not greatly reduce your risk of getting sick, and even that effect wanes within a few months. Masking with n95s or kn95s and cleaning the air are the best protections against getting sick.

"Cynicism is for losers" should be everyone's political guiding phrase. It's actually cool to care about things.

Yes, Democrats should capitalize on the incredibly popular anti-AI sentiment, but they have to do it without strengthening the frame of the AI proponents who want the technology to seem scarier and more effective than it actually is.

I am sympathetic to Silicon Valley guys ascribing human-level consciousness to AI because if I had to talk to people from Silicon Valley all day I’d probably have a real low bar for sentience too

Also - a lot of folks have come to think of building community as an obscure generalization (even though there are clearly established practices and models for this) or as anathema and a surrender to conformist pressures and this is really a problem. Because there is little we can do ALONE.

5 measles deaths in 2 years is too many when we have a vaccine that is 97% effective at preventing infection. It’s ghoulish to dismiss the tragedy of these deaths.

This is awful beyond words. The persecution and murder of transgender people cannot stand. Being anti-trans is anti-human and if you don’t stand with them, support them and fight for their right to exist, you stand against humanity.

found the post of all time for the shit I be feeling lately, oh my fucking god
Tumblr posts from problemnyatic:

"the most valueable skill a white leftist can ever learn is how to take an L with grace."

"You gotta be able to take an L if your moral and ethical belief systems are to be capable of guiding you. Otherwise you just have an idealized self where you get really mad and scared when anyone points out it isn't actually you. How the fuck are you gonna walk the walk if you can't handle being told when you are not, in fact, actually walking it"

"you cannot just socially transition into being a good person you are going to have to settle for being a messy human being who has to try and fail and keep trying to get better like everyone else. yeah even when it's embarassing and sucks for you a lot."

Hitting the streets as an observer is one way to fight back against ICE, but it's not the only way! I jotted down a few ways to get involved, based on my experiences. Many of these can be done from home. I'm sure I missed some. Links to some Massachusetts organizations in the next post.
Do you have a hotline in your area? Consider working as an operator, especially if you speak multiple languages.

Do court accompaniment. Support immigrants during hearings at local courthouses or at immigration check-ins.

Support mutual aid efforts, whether it's collecting donations or helping coordinate with recipients. My hotline has a huge need for people to work with those impacted by ICE to assess needs and connect them to help, whether it is money or state services. A lot of this work is done from home by calling people.

Work on canvassing. Pass out Know Your Rights cards, distribute materials advertising your local hotline. Use these opportunities to build relationships in your community.Design and distribute materials to other rapid responders. My rapid response group has an "accessible activism" arm that focuses on collecting outreach materials in a variety of formats and languages. They manage a supply hub where people can get these before canvassing or attending events.

Help recruit new members to a rapid response group. Mine has a whole team dedicated to recruitment, onboarding, and training. These are great roles for people who cannot be out on the streets because they may be targets of ICE, but still want to contribute.

Reach out to legislators. Not just senators and congresspeople, but your state representative or state senator. In many blue states, legislatures are considering bills that would protect immigrants. Find out what they are and advocate for them!

Remember: - Action is the antidote to despair. - You must engage in solidarity with your community, not just your friends. - Illness is a tool used by fascists to harm vulnerable groups & weaken resistance. Wear an n95 mask. Give/get mutual aid at link below. - Rest, reengage, repeat.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

I've been making these little fake "contact sheets" with photos from my heat printer camera. This set was a selection from my Southwest road trip last year. Lots of lovely contrasty landscapes! #Photography
heat printer camer a photos of southwest USA landscapes including zion, painted desert, sedona, and primm/Buffalo Bill's casino. The photos are black and white and made up of contrasty dots created by the heat printer camera. The photos are printed by the camera and assembled here to create a contact sheet-like collage. A little label writes out most of this information in the corner.

All meaningful forms of resistance boil down to radical love of self and others, even when it’s inconvenient, and stubborn belief that change is possible, even when systems loom large and powerful. Don’t let the bastards convince you otherwise.
