I live in Allston. The car wash is always busy. The fact that ICE would show up here and actually kidnap our neighbors 1)makes me sick and 2)pisses me off!
Two of the Allston Car Wash 9 could soon be freed - but first are being shipped out of state

This bitch is in the news again. Few things enrage me more than when people abuse the civil rights of others who are just trying to live. The first time I saw her bigot face, I wrote this Manual For The Spiritually Conflicted.

ICE pours a large canister of pepper spray directly into family car, hitting 1-year-old baby. "They were simply shopping at Sam's Club," said Matt, who filmed this video. "ICE agents drove by and sprayed pepper spray directly inside the car, where their baby and 16-year-old sister sat."

It shouldn’t be forgotten that a big piece of Mamdani’s campaign was simply “cities are cool and lots of people enjoy living in them” which in and of itself dismantles alot of rightwing talking points

Once, a tall, beefy black guy came to the door. I answered, and he introduced himself as being from a service we hadn’t ordered. I quickly worked out which house he was looking for, and something in his face made me put my hand reassuringly on his shoulder while I pointed him in the right direction.

The shooting victim died from a gunshot wound to the head, the coroner's office said.

A dear friend is a Starbucks union leader. Starbucks bullies & intimidates employees for trying join unions. They use dirty tricks like denying raises & cutting hours if employees mention unions. The close profitable stores because they're unionized.
Fuck Starbucks. I stand with the workers.

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.
If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.
