The US government may try to erase the parts of history and science they don't like, but unfortunately for them science and facts don't change just because they delete and shred evidence of our existence.

Existence is
resistance, folx.💪💙💖🤍💖💙 💋 #transgenderdayofvisibility #lgbtqia+

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too.

Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more.

Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

We distributed these materials in English and Spanish across our community this weekend and invite you to share these reminders widely.

Print it out and keep it in your wallet or on your fridge for reference and safe keeping. We are in this together. (3/3)

You do NOT have to speak to ICE without a JUDICIAL warrant. If they attempt to enter your home or your workplace, ask for a warrant. Sometimes they will try to use other, non qualifying paperwork. They need a warrant.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

on the second full day of trumps administration the republicans started the process of resegregating the federal government.
We don not have time to argue about things we know we have seen or heard. We must start pushing back. Now.

AOC: Trans girls are girls. And for all the folks that are so concerned, thank you for your concern for women for the first time. I don't know who has been to gym class, I’ve played co-ed sports all the time

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Don't let fascists and fascist apologists try to cover it up and get rid of the footage. News networks have already cut away from Elon Musk's first seig heil, but it is, and will remain, burned into my brain. The effort, the grunt, the expression change. All thought out and intentional. Fuck nazis.
I’m simultaneously told to believe this man’s a genius yet doesn’t understand what a Nazi salute is

No Worship for Tyrants 2025 🇺🇸

The REAL issues are human and bipartisan, not left vs right. Stay literate, stay involved, stay above vapid trans & immigrant scapegoating. Don't brain rot – we are stronger together ❤️

You’ll probably see this screenshot floating around a lot but it really was wonderful to see Lynch put a scene in Twin Peaks: The Return where he has his character literally stare at the camera and say that you should either support trans people or die. I needed to hear that in 2017

There's a lot of stereotypes about Los Angeles being a vain city where people only look out for themselves, but throughout this unspeakable tragedy I've seen that that couldn't be farther from the truth.
