So I got a bunch of new followers today. Hopefully y'all aren't bots. But if not, hi! I'm Abby. I'm into TTRPGs, video games, and I'm in grad school. Used to post a lot of lewds, but not anymore.

U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) says he has been denied 4 times to see what is going on inside the Broadview, IL ICE facility:

"Something's going on in there that they don't want us to see. I don't know what it is, but all Americans should be asking the same question."

Nobody could have imagined the future world that would find this funny and why

There's some facebook account that just posts ai-generated videos of 10 feet tall women in athletic clothes with massive thunder thighs. I appreciate the desire to see that, but just pay an artist to do it!

ICE has been verified in Rogers Park today - sharing this again.

Rae Loren @aspwriter85.bsky.social · 27d

I'm heading to the burbs today and refreshing myself on SALUTE. ICE hasn't been spotted as much in the city but has been very present in the suburbs.

An screenshot displaying "SALUTE"
with information on if for how to spot and report ICE in Illinois

REMEMBER SALUTE

Provide as much information as possible when reporting or boosting potential threats. Spread information - not panic!!

S

Size / Strength How many agents? How many vehicles? "4 agents, 2 SUVs, no license plates"

A

Activity / Action

What are you seeing? A raid at a workplace? A traffic stop? Are they using force? "Harassing workers in my shop"

L

Location / Direction Address? Intersection? Nearby landmarks? "at Fillmore and Maple in South Oak Park"

U

Uniform / Clothing What are they wearing? Do they have masks?

Vests? Badges? What do they say on them? "Civilian clothes that say DEA on the back"

T

Time and Date What is the time and date of the sighting? "11:15AM on September 4"

E

Equipment / Weapons

What equipment/weapons? Are they using them?

"They have hancuffs and batons"

PROVIDE AS MUCH INFORMATION AS YOU CAN WHEN REPORTING OR BOOSTING POTENTIAL THREATS. BE AS SPECIFIC, CONCISE, AND PRECISE AS POSSIBLE

You have a right to document in a public space. This is particularly important if there is ICE activity or activity by law enforcement.

The best way to document is to use your phone to take video of what is occurring

The best practices for taking video safely are:

Stay and record at a safe distance

Hold your phone horizontally so you get as much of what is occurring as possible in the video.

Try to get the whole scene showing location and time

Narrate what you are seeing. You can describe where you are and what you are seeing or maybe what occurred prior to your beginning the recording.

Do not post or share the video on social media - connect with a PASO Westside Rapid Reponse. Or contact the Family Support Network at 855-435-7693.

IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE DUE TO ICE DETENTION, OR TO REPORT ANY SUSPECTED ICE SIGHTINGS, CALL 855-435-7693

A man was just abducted by ICE on Clark and Lunt, feet away from our campaign office.

I want to add specifically for the cis men reading this: more of us need to be showing up for this. Letter-writing to incarcerated people. Book-packing for incarcerated young people. Meal prep for unhoused people. Assembling post-abortion care packages. Jail support even when it's not post-protest.

Meg @prayingmantis.bsky.social · 1d

Activism is rarely dearresting someone, getting pepper sprayed by police, etc. It's a lot of planning, emails, dull meetings.

Build community. Help each other. Do the work.

Phoenix Calida @phoenixcalida.bsky.social · 1d

My spicy take for this moment-

Too many of you do not understand the concept of infrastructure. How systems are built, how systems are maintained.

You want big bold action but haven't committed to the planning and the boring mundane tasks needed to make said action possible.

There’s a viral video reposted by a lot of news people nationally about an abduction at West Loop Elementary School, but there is no school with that name. The video seems to be of ICE detaining people near UIC yesterday. Details matter. We need to try to get them right before sharing.

Bold of you to assume baratheon men go down

It's kind of funny that inbreeding is the logical endpoint of a racist worldview. If you internalize the idea that some people are genetically superior to others, it all leads to making the human equivalent of purebred pugs

I'm glad we're doing this part of Westeros history. In between eras of the Targaryens being terrifying mass murderers, when they're mostly inbred Nepo babies

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

By far the funniest change in the live-action Avatar is that instead of Iroh being a creep towards June, they gave June a fetish for older men. I imagine the meeting went something like "well we need *some* sexual harassment"
