Federal agents raiding Ilhan Omar’s home just weeks before an election should alarm us all. After years of Trump’s racist attacks on Ilhan and Somali Americans, the timing demands answers. We cannot normalize the weaponization of federal power against political opponents. #IStandWithIlhan

A bold purple and black solidarity graphic featuring a black-and-white portrait of Congresswoman Ilhan Omar wearing a headscarf, with the U.S. Capitol dome in the background. Large, high-contrast lettering across the center reads “I STAND WITH ILHAN.”
Beneath it, smaller white text reads: “This president should not be able to weaponize the federal government against political enemies.”
The design features textured purple backgrounds, cream-colored brushstrokes, and bold typography.

We can disagree on how to address the disparity and inequity. However, I have no discussion for those who deny the disparity and inequity. Task conflict v. Personal conflict

I think Nikole Hannah-Jones' followup NYTimes magazine feature on her daughter's education and the Boston Globe story on the lesbian bar are both about people trying to make a series of choices in response to systemic problems and government policies which often punish Black and disabled people.

Feeling a little better today after processing yesterday. I know where my gaps are and what needs to get done between now and the "big show." With a smaller Coraline Market the week before, and a Gothmas Market shortly after, the bulk of my new works will veer more "dark whimsy." My personal fav.

Spent the day in the backyard designing my booth layout and selecting which makes to bring for my first Carlsbad Village Street Faire. The event isn’t until November but I need time to make listings, price tags, and signage. I’m already overwhelmed. But that may have been the heat/humidity. 🥵🤪

i believe the venn diagram of people who's knee-jerk response to a person's late dx is, "no you're not!" and people who were abusive and/or took advantage of said person prior to their dx is a circle. a dx often unmasks the people AROUND the autistic person, and those people are mad about it.

14 hours later and my mentions are still full of angry treatises about badly behaved cyclists. Bike lanes are not a reward for good cyclist behavior! They are infrastructure proven to make cities safer for ALL ROAD USERS. Whatever way cyclists have wronged you is irrelevant to the discussion!

Plenty to reflect about re: the Arday affair, but I'm going to repeat this one thing. The playbook the right used here is effective even though it's not especially sophisticated, as it relies on the audience to do the dirty work. I've been calling it "Trojan horse propaganda", let's go with that. 1/

I think a good way to think about the current moment is understanding white supremacy as a spectrum with passive acceptance as the status quo out to actively arguing for global genocide.

If this horrific police execution video crosses your timeline consider: - we don’t have to physically witness a murder to know it’s horrific - people who are subject to this type of violence do not have to be repeatedly traumatized by it - you do not have to push violence into people’s timelines

"I don't like being called cis" "I don't like being called white" "I don't like being called abled" That's because you view yourself as "normal" or "the default" and everyone else as *not*. Viewing yourself as the baseline is just another form of prejudice. It's just a more implicit type.

This week, Grammy-winning singer SZA, née Solána Imani Rowe, shared that she had received a formal autism diagnosis. It may help more Black women and girls see themselves in a community that often overlooks them. bit.ly/4wyEgxP

SZA’s autism diagnosis is a familiar story for many autistic Black women

Black women and girls on the spectrum have long been under-diagnosed and overlooked. A diagnosis arrives late for many of them — or not at all.

I’d argue that one of the most visible through lines in the war against The Bad Guys is specifically the subject of consent. At this moment in time Consent relates to how we engage with every element of our lived realities. And there are only two positions to have. You respect consent or you don’t
