Oregonians, we need your help.

ICE activity is increasing in our communities. If you see something, report it to PIRC's hotline (1-888-622-1510) and get your phone out to record it.

The truth is that ICE is an out-of-control federal agency kidnapping people off the streets and causing terror in our communities.

Please be aware, use your camera, and report ICE activity to the PIRC Hotline: (888) 622-1510

Setting aside The Horror for a quick second, what is even the business strategy here?

They are making their stores actively hostile to and unsafe for the guys who go in to make big bulk materials purchases every day

For folks asking if they've made it *inside* a Home Depot yet as the business has clearly just continued letting agents do whatever they want in their lots, the answer is yes. This is from yesterday in Evanston.

At my local Home Depot today in Evanston, IL. They abducted 5 people in my immediate area.

Dear everything that is holy.

People.

I know from battle scars and war wounds and PTSD and raised racist and watching filth.

I am not perfect. I hurt people from my damage sometimes.

What I have never done is rape anyone or get a fucking Nazi tattoo. Stop infantilizing your cultural heroes.

It’s surreal reading research & doing work on a writing project when the country is being stripped for parts & people are cheering it on.

Health insurance is a mess, our patients are at risk for high costs, unstable jobs, housing, & food.

But yeah, keep writing notes & working on projects! 🧐🤢💔

it always makes me feel like I'm losing my mind whenever some absolute monster says "well ALL men do this evil thing so why are you mad at ME, it's just in our MALE NATURE to be hateful rapist Nazi homophobes" or whatever the thing is

I'm always like, the men around him should feel insulted by that

Cheryl Lynn Eaton @cheryllynneaton.bsky.social · 1d

People act like all the men are gone. The men are attending protests. The men are putting together scooters for their kids. The men are getting a set of turntables for the first time. The men are buying Nikes. The men are getting super into noir. They're not Nazis and they're fine. Keep your freaks.

Demolish East Wing after lying that "It won't interfere with the current building. It'll be near it but not touching it" ✅
Build gaudy $250M Ballroom as public struggles financially ✅
