“We are surrounded by Illinois State Police who are standing on top of the roofs of buildings, and there is no other reason to think that they are up there other than to intimidate us.”

No troops in Broadview yet, but anti-ICE protestors say state and local police used intimidation tactics in crowd control • The TRiiBE

Several hundred demonstrators gathered in Broadview to continue calling out the federal government for its aggressive immigration enforcement and the treatment of detainees at the facility.

When he threatens stuff like this, I wonder what is he distracting us from now. What else is he trying to get passed while he shakes the red flag?

I'm locking myself out of all my social media apps and turning off notifications.

Even if it was hypothetical.

An interaction between someone else and a French couple has made me think.

Why don't we have protests every day until things change? It would be more affective.

You've never seen anything as satisfying as watching Trapp and Sam pull long strips of dried glue off of Paul...

Found out today that Nick Frost signed on to play Hagrid in the new HP reboot. Bummer. I loved a lot of his previous work and hoped he was a decent dude.
But there are lots of other artists who aren't taking work that contributes to the trauma and deaths of trans people and I'll be fine with them

Dan can't stop watching Contagion. Abigail can't stop playing The Outer Worlds. We are living in the dystopia and I'm bouncing between getting my life together and laying on the couch for hours at a time. My mind is screaming.

I steel myself against making deep connections with people because I don't want to miss them, yearn for them. I don't want to ache at their absence. The people that I love, yup still love them even if they've left my life, leave my heart aching.
