You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

Outrageous. Stripping Liam Conejo Ramos and his family of asylum is beyond cruel and indefensible. This decision must be overturned. Shame.

Judge ends asylum claims for Liam Conejo Ramos and his family, orders family's removal
The family’s lawyers plan to appeal the judge’s decision to deport the family to Ecuador.

Iran’s people were facing a horrible shortage of water before the war began. If we are destroying desalination plants and setting fire to Teheran we are committing unfathomable crimes.

My niece today: "will the game be played at the New Hampshire Plus Sign Stadium?" We insisted that isn't a thing. She insisted it was. After about 7 minutes and an instructional drawing, we learned she meant the New Orleans Saints (because the fleur de lis looks like a plus sign).

Do you REALLY think someone as media-savvy, narratively skilled, informed, or demonstrably compassionate as Bad Bunny would even OK having Liam Ramos be part of a ✨dance number ✨as the vicious deportation efforts continue and present him with a panacea in the form of a Grammy and a hug. Do you.

And while everyone is feeling good about Benito giving a Grammy to someone who is not Liam Ramos: Congress can pass a personal bill to grant citizenship to Liam Ramos, his family and Kilmer Abrego Garcia.

The PRSL performance of halftime was excellent. If only it didn't require downloading a completely separate app to watch it. True accessibility is picture-in-picture, NBC.

Oliver butt update (buppdate?): was able to be lured into doing training and playing ball, and was quite happy. Then remembered his short butt hairs and went back to moping.

Oliver has been on his deathbed for 3 days because his groomer trimmed his butt hair too short and it itches so obviously he's dying.

Pretti clearly did not brandish his gun. Which means the government is saying he was killed for legally exercising his right to carry. It’s as clear-cut a violation of the Second Amendment as I can possibly imagine. And we’re about to see the bulk of the gun rights crowd defend his murder.

My community wanted to organize against ICE after an event yesterday. I worked on getting a seasoned rapid response organizer to attend. They decided that "it wasn't the time" for that and instead invited the chief of police. To organize against ICE.

“protesters” are not “clashing” with law enforcement. violent federal agents have waged war on minneapolis and regular people are telling them to get the fuck out. and last time i checked being in a group chat doesn’t mean you’re in a professional organization. it means you have friends.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

It's been about two weeks since I got COVID and I'm definitely not feeling "back to normal." I'm immuncompromised and have been struggling with Crohn's lately so it's been a rough ride. Seeing Jon Stewart make fun of people who mask is not what I needed today.

I have COVID, and instead of being able to take care of myself, I'm spending the day fighting for access to the antiviral medication that doesn't interact with my other meds. It costs over $1000 and my insurance doesn't have it in the formulary. I hate it here.

It annoys me when people say “they’re on SNAP but their hair and nails are done and they’ve got tattoos”. It’s extremely normal to do your own hair and buy press on nails, and tattoos literally last forever. What do tattoos someone got 10 years ago have to do with them needing to eat now

“Let them go a month without meals. Maybe they will get a job” First, many SNAP recipients have jobs. They’re just living below the poverty line because of tremendous wealth inequality. Second, many are disabled and children and can’t work. Third, no one should starve to death.

A conservative-backed ballot measure in Maine is targeting absentee ballots, making it harder for everyone to vote — but especially aging and disabled people. "People who cannot drive, who are physically unable to read for whatever reason ...this will be a big burden on all of us," said one voter.
