I’m so angry & heart broken. My NSF CAREER grant was stolen today; dream project supporting science teachers/students as climate justice action researchers, tackling urban heat. Truly transformative, the culmination of my life’s work, we won’t stop, not in this climate crisis. Gonna fight like hell!
I recently heard Angela Davis speak, she was asked how she finds hope in these times. She said: ‘Hope isn’t something we find, we don’t go out searching for hope, hope is what we GENERATE together, that’s what organizing IS….’ Holding onto this WISDOM, we’re seeing it everyday! Hear the legend ⬇️

When even Joe Rogan with his tiny white guy mind is starting to figure it out….imagine having the power to sway young men across the nation and doing it solely on racist vibes

I grew up in Green Bay and he went from hometown hero to antivax conspiracy theorist spreading hate and I think the lesson here is he played a solid decade+ too long - or maybe covid revealed the real rodgers? Either way that sack, fumble, defensive lineman TD was a perfect way for him to go out

I shouldn't make it about gender, I've seen it from women too, it's so odd, is it jealously? Anyway, a whole lot more to be raging about then AOC haters I guess, onward 💪🫶

Why are insecure men so triggered by AOC? It's weird. She's probably too fearless and that's a threat? She calls is like it is and I appreciate that. More of this!

You can just say you don't like AOC (for whatever unclear reason) instead of being a misogynist prick....that is an option

He’s such a repulsive human and what a pathetic insecure loser that he finds solace whining on the site he owns where he will receive tons of fake props because he controls the algorithm. And not long ago this same DOGE abuser stole our grants which we still have not gotten back

How ICE ‘know your rights’ works out in reality:
1. Don’t open door: ICE busts it down
2. Require a warrant: family asks for a warrant >20x, calmly, ICE lies, barges in HEAVILY armed
3. You can film: ICE shines light at camera, threatens w/taser
What are the guideline for THIS REALITY?! #IceOut

So in this case a Black family stands their ground and then what? Everyone including them, the children etc are shot. A million more troops are ordered to MN. They’re facing MASSIVE AR’s and a deeply racist regime, this is not an option and ICE knows it, that’s why they’re doing it!

I’ve been fortunate to see a lot of different types of whales in the wild and there is none more striking, imo, than orcas. Just absolutely stunning, and that precious baby! Provides such incredible perspective.

Want to Stop ICE? Go After Its Corporate Collaborators.
ICE can’t function without help from the private sector. So we should force the private sector to stop helping.

Oh. Hell no. UC Berkeley alum here:

And, because Good and her wife had the audacity to be defiant (tell him to go get some lunch) and do what is morally correct as queer women

Exactly this! And in this context, as @socialistdogmom.bsky.social astutely points out, the officer cell video is used not to show Ross’s innocence but rather Good and her wife’s “guilt” for being queer and having the audacity to stand up to him. As a gay mom, she did what this moment calls us to DO
