@apolter.bsky.social something we need to plan for
ICE turned back in Somerville

So many Somerville community members came out that ICE simply retreated. Nonviolent resistance works when communities come together to protect kids and families.

For the last month or so, I've been doing a Word of the Day on the whiteboard behind my desk. Not for any particular reason. I just like learning.

At one point, I got busy and didn't do it. Queue the (all in good fun) outrage of my desk neighbors!!

So back to the drawing board, as they say. :)

@apolter.bsky.social Great meeting you!! I think I can add value to future sessions. I can speak, I can present, I can organize. I cannot however make more time so I have to be careful about what I commit to.

You brought joy every time you dropped a cue tip at our feet, expecting to play fetch. You sung me meows at 5am, demanding immediate attention. You covered the bottom four inches of every garment in the closet in your fur, so we'd have you with us always.

Love you, little man. 🌈🌉

@chadkultgen.bsky.social has your father always been this full of vitriol or is this new in the age of Trumpism?

"They're trying to build a prison. They're trying to build a prison. They're trying to build a prison. FOR YOU AND ME TO LIVE IN!"
“The controversial 1,000-bed facility is owned by the private prison company GEO Group, which entered into a 15-year, $1 billion contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in February.”

$1 BILLION dollars lining the pockets of a private prison company.

Trying to escape a red nightmare state in favor of Oregon. What's the best way to start a family compound??

Need separate living spaces but in close proximity to my sister so our kids can grow up together.

Know any affordable weird listings?

Did you know there is an upward limit to the number of images/videos you can add to a Google photo album?

Did you also know that it takes about 5 1/2 years to take 20,000 pictures and videos of your kids?

Can we go back to when #JoeRogan was just the host from #FearFactor and not the usher guiding impressionable masses down the far-right pipeline?

Solid advice from the food court in the downtown square.

But stop pretending to be altruistic while benefiting from the same system you preach shouldn't support others.

Rant over.

Either we need originations like churches and the like to be active members of the community and help raise up those who need support OR you rely on the government to do that. Or ideally, both.
