As we mourne Renee Good, we need to remember:

This has been going on in black, immigrant, and indigenous neighborhoods since the founding.

And it went on because we did not rise up to stop it.

To some, you look and say, this is new.

It is not new. It is just here now.

Black people five years ago: you know, they can kill anyone they want to out there

Everybody today: hot damn, did you know they can kill anyone they want to out there?

Abolishing ICE is the bare minimum.

We need to dismantle DHS. We need restitution. And we need trials.

They also killed someone in Camarillo in July. The way that the invasion of LA has been memory holed even as it continues to this day, makes me insane
It's very clear from the commentary exploding on the timeline right now that hardly anyone outside Chicago knows ICE shot and killed a man in his car here in the fall.

It's probably not your fault—too much news.

But if you're choosing to jump in & *report* today, please contextualize. Thanks.

Abolish and prosecute ICE. They did a murder in broad daylight today. Imagine what they're doing in the closed facilities we're somehow not even allowed to see.

I know it's not mainstream conventional wisdom but I think "Abolish ICE" is a perfectly reasonable response to this and you can get the public to buy in. Most people don't want masked murderous thugs roving their streets
MPR playing an eye witness account right now of ICE shooting directly through the windshield at her face and not giving her medical care for 10 minutes.

Does anyone have any good recs for learning more about writing #poetry ?
I love to write it a lot these days to process the state of the world but I'm very much a beginner.

Having a depression flare up while you're on an SSRI is so rude, like I have security to keep you out and you still break into my brain?!?!

I implore you to hit up CVS and get your flu shot. Please don’t game it with whatever else you heard. It’s real serious and we don’t gave any public health allies in the government now.

I assure you, you don't have to hand it to Marjorie Taylor Greene, & even if she is making sense, you can probably find somebody else, who's much better, who's making sense that you can uplift.

Honestly, just diving in and writing. I could have easily just have doom scrolled in that time and instead chose to create. And that is an accomplishment in itself!
What's something you did with your writing in 2025 that you're genuinely proud of? (If you disparage yourself on this post I will beat you with hammers) #WritingPrompt

"International organizations have said Israel’s rules are arbitrary and could endanger staff. The ministry said around 25 organizations, or 15%, of the NGOs working in Gaza did not have their permits renewed."

Including Doctors Without Borders.

I deleted Instagram off my phone after some white cis gay man was saying she was a nazi because she had a republican uncle in congress?

Like every queer person in the midwest has a crazy awful republican relative these people are out of touch with reality
A lot of people expect more from Chappell Roan than they do from their own elected officials

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.
