OTG activist in LA, disabled non-binary mom. Anarchist, antifascist always. I defend my community from ICE. Use alt text or I will steal your picture and not give you credit. I’m labeled because of the “mom” word. Sorry.

So I guess the next thing I should probably crowd fund for is a body/dash cam. I already have a recommendation. Ask is $130. Use a 📸 emoji to let me know what you're donating to (I also regularly ask for gas money). Anything helps! TIA! #MutualAid
Ca/Ve/Pp is the same as my Bsky handle.

my friends at the Portland Immigrant Rights Coalition are in search of a volunteer grant writer; the person who had been doing it just stepped down from the board. I can't take it on myself, but I can mentor/coach/handhold for anyone who is interested and available

A box of 1000 whistles arrived today from Chicago, just as CBP is ramping up the intimidation and MAGA is protesting to "take back Minneapolis."
We are going to make it through this because together we are stronger. Thank you to all the whistle makers. You're amazing!

Charges Dropped Against Nine Arrested at Pro-Palestine Protest
Organizers say these arrests are another example of police overreach and that they are being used as justification for ongoing repression. Toronto police call the arrests "lawful, justified, and reasonable."
