pow wow grounds, moona moono, briar bar, a bar of their own—i spoke with these folks and many more about their role in this ongoing federal invasion, and about the "overwhelming support" and "massive" scale of donations that are flooding in to support immigrants, organizers, and ICE observers.

ICE is using an array of tools and programs to track people's social media activity and location. But 404 Media journalist Joseph Cox told Minnesota Now host Nina Moini that there's a "solid and robust" way to help combat even more surveillance: turning off your phone's location services.

good things from today:
- had Flaming Hot Cheetos for the first time ever? idk why I'd never eaten them before, they're great
- noticed the sun is staying a bit longer each day
- just happy Chappell Roan exists

Devastating for scientists and their research, and everyone who benefits from that research.

Remember, no matter what some government run by a fascist says - you are who you say you are. You define yourself. No one else. The state & powerful try to dictate our bodies to control & exploit us - our labor, our energy, our lives - for themselves. But you get to choose yourself. Fuck ‘em.
