Me rn

This was a postcard I got in a care kit at AltFest. It was from Freedom Oklahoma had a tote, socks, stickers about mutual aid, Palestine, self care, and also more than stickers about the Trans Youth Emergency Project. The other side looks like the book (cover) I also received and says TRANS KIDS OUR KIDS. This side is a big heart and is handwritten with "you are EXACTLY what the world needs!"
I tore the heart in half. Because I feel bitter, and like shit.
But you should probably check out https://www.freedomoklahoma.org/

Trump and Louis both have 5 letters and Melania and Marie (Antoinette) both start with M JUST SAYIN'

Oh look, there are renderings. The Versailles jokes make themselves. Also, this architecture firm should be laughed out of existence.

A very large, very white and gold ballroom with Baroque-style arched windows, coved ceilings, and gold chandeliers obviously meant to invoke comparisons to Versailles. Completely inappropriate to the architectural style of the White House.

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death.

People should absolutely be writing about how ICE's occupation of their cities is transforming life in these places, and they should be publishing it in print on paper - not just social media posts. There needs to be a record of this. Things are changing in measurable ways for the worse every day.

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase.

The President is building an army to attack his own country.

NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

This is bad. Very bad.

DHS quietly eliminates ban on surveillance based on sexual orientation and gender identity

The DHS quietly updated its policy manual earlier this month, removing LGBTQ+ identities from the section prohibiting surveillance based solely on immutable characteristics.

The East Wing was where Eleanor Roosevelt welcomed all visitors to the White House.

That must have kept this administration up nights until they could knock it down. To build a ballroom we can't afford, during a shutdown, for a president who just posted himself dropping shit on the country.

This photo, taken on April 1, 1941, shows First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt sitting in front of a fireplace, accompanied by her staffers Malvina Thompson and Edith Helm at the White House in Washington, D.C.

I know that area does not always have the, ah, kindest hearted people in some landlord capacities. My late son's best friend lived in an apartment in the area (don't know if it was sec8, he had no $ tho) and it was pretty brutal. Ended up living w us for a while.

This is ABSOLUTELY ENRAGING (& is meant to be) but DO NOT FORGET that while this is going on our national parks & lands are being ravaged as well, with staff layoff and no funds, allowing people to go in & desecrate fragile plants, petroglyphs, poach animals, etc. And Alaska still needs help.

I like b-nut squash soup! Don't often get a chance to eat it from scratch, but store-bought is fine with your holiday meal. Better than no soup for sure! 🥣
