Donald Trump's 'Board of Peace' is naked colonialism.

Just saw it noted that 100% of the world’s Ozempic supply comes from Denmark, as does a somewhat smaller percentage of the world’s insulin. Almost as if it’s really quite a small world!

If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is.
Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide.
He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Overpaid centrist and right wing sociopaths live in a bubble and cannot understand the empathy and love that everyday, normal people have for their trans family members and immigrant friends and neighbors. They want people to compromise, to throw away the humans they love. Fuck that forever.
