Sometimes I post on social about my feelings or journey and think “why here and not my journal”?
Why publicly?

Because we don’t talk about the hard middle parts. We don’t have a lot of examples that say, candidly- I’m human and I am a work in progress.

So just be that and hope it becomes the norm.

1/ DEVELOPING: A journalist was rushed to New York-Presbyterian Hospital following another incident with an ICE agent at 26 Federal Plaza, an immigration court in NYC. The last I heard, he was getting X-rays for his lower back.

Phang: So, as we can see you have a DHS official—you clearly hear him say on that body cam footage, “I am arresting the mayor. Even though he stepped out, I’m going to put him in cuffs.”

Who told him to do it? He says: the Deputy Attorney General… And who’s that? Todd Blanche.

(and also great to learn a tiny bit of Cherokee)
Goodnight, friends.

I love you.
Your Cherokee words for today.
The top word is English followed by how it is written in the Cherokee language followed by how it is spelled in English then how to pronounce it phonetically.

POSSIBLE NEW ICE TACTIC TO DETAIN MIGRANTS

Detained by ICE, he was selling his car, and they trapped him posing as buyers. The moment the hood pops, likely a prearranged signal, unmarked vehicles rush in. More agents emerge. No one identifies themselves. Within minutes, the man is kidnapped.

as @anuncivilphd.bsky.social said - take a look and learn something new!

resist.

every. day.

and don't forget to drink some water, too
Goodnight, friends.

Samizdat, economic non-cooperation, culture jamming, silent protests, work-to-rule, guerilla art.

These are just a few of the types of everyday resistance anyone can engage in.

Learn something new and pledge to give it a try.

I love you.

anyone know of people doing public / guerilla art that somehow disseminates info that's been removed from government websites / public spaces under current administration?

it's so nice to see what a functioning judiciary looks like

"A transgender woman in the East African nation of Kenya has won a landmark court victory in which the judge not only found in her favour, but ordered the government to pass a Transgender Protection Rights Act."

fuck yeah
Kenya transgender rights victory hailed as African first
