I was commissioned to make a zine for the No Kings 2 protest on Saturday Oct 18th!

If you wonder “what can I do?” this zine is for you. It’s packed with things that you can do from wearing a “no ICE” pin to organizing a visibility brigade with your friends.

When something happens that relieves one stress but adds a dozen more. It's all the good kind of stress though. So there's that at least.

A powerful visual.

A tweet from Pop Base reads: “A melting ice sculpture of the word ‘Democracy’ was placed in front of the U.S. Capitol.” Two photos show the sculpture before and after melting. In the first, the word “DEMOCRACY” is fully visible in clear ice with the Capitol building in the background. In the second, much of the sculpture has melted, leaving only fragments that spell “D_C_AY,” symbolizing the decay of democracy.

I wanna see wall-to-wall coverage of kids holding clever homemade signs. My 11-year-old finished hers last night, and she's excited and ready to go.

Do they at least knock?

I actually don't know what you're talking about. What are you talking about? I googled it but nothing recent popped up.

Breaking: Text messages of Young Republican groups across the country have just been leaked.

They talk about putting Democrats in “gas chambers,” attacking “Jews,” calling Black people “watermelon people,” calling to “rape” their enemies, and bringing back slavery.

I don't believe anything we have runs that anymore but honestly not sure. 🤔

And they were sent after the insurrection to investigate, not before it even happened. Sheesh.

A tweet by Evan Kilgore says: “Can somebody please explain to me how ‘the Biden FBI’ placed 274 agents into the crowd on January 6th… when Donald Trump was President on January 6th? Joe Biden had no control over the FBI before January 20th. Does Trump think we’re stupid or am I missing something?”
It quotes a tweet from Donald J. Trump reading, “THE BIDEN FBI PLACED 274 AGENTS INTO THE CROWD ON JANUARY 6… What a SCAM – DO SOMETHING!!! President DJT.”

Spent the afternoon summarizing public university academic programs for the child. Next is to do the same with private universities of interest. Tedious but necessary. Have to complete public uni applications first.

"Strategic incompetence"

Alt CDC (they/them) @altcdc.altgov.info · 9d

Many RIFed yesterday are now being unfired(?!)

Unclear if it’s evil or incompetence — but either way, calculated move. Meant to flex power.

Ha. Just shows Republicans are scared.

Dems, @schumer.senate.gov — don’t back down.
They know they’re losing the Republican shutdown shitshow.
We’re winning.

Official HHS memo showing someone RIFed yesterday is, um, no longer RIFed. wtf

So Qatar is going to be an occupying force in the U.S. soon. It only cost them an airplane. He's set a precedent of selling land to foreign militaries now.

This is ridiculous. Gift a plane. Get a military base. There's no reason to build an entire base to house a foreign military force in the U.S. unless they're an occupation force.
