This is why I say that ICE enforcement could be a mass disabling event.

This is not an approved carry. This is how you cause injury and disability.

The chemical munitions they use can also disable.

The detention camps are full of disease.

ICE Enforcement May Be A Mass Disabling Event

ICE have proven again and again that they will target the most vulnerable. Their aggressive actions may even become a mass disabling event. Why aren't more people talking about it?

Y'all don't want democracy you want a return to your emotional support exceptionalism and handshake hierarchy.

Let me continue to be productive instead of reflecting on the wetness of water.

When the cruelty
and childishness
of these times is overwhelming
I hear friends explain
that the regions of the brain
Covid damages
control empathy and compassion,
and I fear Covid
has damaged our empathy,
and I also fear Covid
revealed
how damaged our empathy
has always been.

If you’re feeling sick, please stay home.

If you can’t stay home, please wear a mask. Ideally an N95.

Covid is a social justice issue. Mitigations cost money. Many can’t afford the protection they need.

If you’re able, donate to a mask bloc. Carry spare respirators. Help protect each other!

Let's expand our understanding of DisCrit! “DisCrit Expanded” builds on DisCrit to show how racism and ableism reverberate through time, rupture injustice, and spark new inquiries into justice and inclusion—an invitation to reflect, resist, and reimagine. Created by summer intern Mary Yoon. [1/8]

Title slide with beige background and blurred grayscale silhouettes of people in the background. Large bold text reads “DisCrit Expanded.” Below, smaller text says “The intersections of race and disability on a local, national, and international level.” Caption reads “Created by Mary Yoon on behalf of CRDJ.” A brown circular arrow icon points right.

Some of the worst propaganda often comes in the form of subtly changing words in order to dramatically alter the context of a message. For example, calling armed conflict a war when only one side has a formal military 👀

I had MCAS, POTS & hEDS before Covid & knew immediately it would exacerbate all my conditions & have luckily never had Covid. Wish the studies weren’t proving me right, but glad I’m able to protect myself 😷✌🏽

Most of us who are covid conscious understand that widespread masking is not returning.

But masking in healthcare facilities should be an easy ask.

Getting folks to mask when they’re sick should be an easy ask.

Cleaning the air should be an easy ask.

It’s time we adapt!

Three cases of clade Ib mpox not related to travel have been reported in LA. This raises concerns for probable local transmission. Vaccines are available and work to reduce disease severity or prevent infection. If you are eligible to get vaccinated do so.

I wish that more people understood that the well paying jobs are the ones they pay you good money to be the most evil and/or dehumanizing cog in the system.

Stop romanticizing it. We need to fundamentally change what roles exist, are created, and aren’t paid well (carework etc).

Y’all thinking people get to suffer for voting any type of way is the fucking problem. You’ve lost your humanity subscribing to colonial capitalist propaganda and so you genuinely believe that all of us don’t deserve everything we need to survive and thrive at base level.

I'm going to use the zombie analogy again:

If you want us to survive the apocalypse -

1) we can't let people in the safe house who WANT to open the door to the zombies

2) the person who arbitrarily says we need to give up some of us to save the others also can't stay in the safehouse.
