Lifelong Alaskan, teacher, and parent. Forager and sometimes artist. Curiosity, humility, and empathy are the traits I value above all others. Neurodivergent and queer, but pretty good at passing as a normie most of the time. She/her and they/them.

This is a screen recording of an official DHS video that was taken down on Twitter. It seems to be being suppressed by algorithms elsewhere for now and may be taken down elsewhere soon as well, so screen record it and share!

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption.
Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow.
People have power. Ask Target

I can’t make it to this but it’s pretty cool sounding and I recommend going if you can! This is precisely what we need to be focusing on as a country: fighting against Christian Nationalism (and in a way that is inclusive of religious folks of all stripes, including Christians).

Alaska is not taking this shit. Our governor might be OK with this and our congressional delegation might bend the knee. But we will not. Neither you nor your fascist buddy are welcoming here. #StandUpAlaska why don’t you #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles and leave us in peace.

🧵 Something that's been bothering me on the side of those I agree w/ is use of language. I ask we think about how we speak bc language shapes culture:
1.) It's not "fucks" or "sleeps w/" kids, it's RAPES kids.
2.) *Sexual predator* is more accurate than pedophile bc it's about power & control --

i feel like it should be a national crisis that a foreign nation has kidnapped and tortured a U.S. citizen
Gaza Freedom Flotilla has released statement that Black labour leader Chris Smalls (Amazon Labour Union) faced violence that no one else on Handala did. He has been severely beaten in Israeli custody.
Smalls follows in legacy of Black radical tradition for Palestine. Labour must stand for Smalls.

The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.

It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

We raised over $1,000 for Covenant House! Naomi even won the youth fundraising award and we got to meet Lisa Murkowski. Thanks to everyone who donated, and if you selected an incentive we will be reaching out shortly!

This is the last week to hit our fundraising goal before the Sleep Out! If you haven’t donated and have a few bucks to spare, consider contributing to support unhoused youth in Anchorage. Plus, Naomi would love for anyone to claim one of her incentives!

Nice people made the best Nazis. My mother spent her childhood in Nazi Germany surrounded by nice people who refused to make waves, chose not to focus on politics... They were lovely, kind people who turned their heads as their neighbors were dragged away.

Forget that the deportation was illegal, or that habeas corpus rights were ignored.
The U.S. government asserting it can't get the dude back from our new best buds in El Salvador is some ultra weak shit.
