I’m primary caretaker for a baby now, spending nearly every hour of almost every day handling it all completely on my own.

I’d like to be able to afford 1-2 days a week to knock out big chores (like laundry) & to be on the ground again. A nanny costs $20-$30/hr. I make $350/week lol

this rhetoric hypothesizing the inner workings of the trump admin is often a waste of time encouraging people play pundit rather than respond to actual harms hitting their community.

those of us who cannot get out need to find ways to survive. you will not survive by going underground to leave those slowing the tide to fend for themselves. we all go under together or not at all. those who get grabbed, invest your energy in making them feel loved & supported. do not forget them.

they’re using the lists they created before as the starting point to target political enemies. they’re using noncitizens as practice & to build a case to apply the same tactics to citizens. they’re taking over your info outlets to bend the truth and shape it in their likeness. it’s all happening.

the fascism is for sure happening now. all the far flung harms you anxiously laughed off before are on the table. take time to think earnestly and calmly what you need to do to stay safe and survive. the time for brushing it off as alarmism or prematurity is over.

rich people/people with means need to be spending this time building pathways for the less advantaged to be able to access safety and security amid the tumult of fascism. anything less is cowardice.

As always, I share these photos to say YOU ARE NOT ALONE. There are awesome people and groups in your community that are fighting back, and you can join them!

If you're in Brooklyn, I HIGHLY recommend joining @bkindivisible.bsky.social. They DO stuff!

Greg Pak @gregpak.net · 1d

Went to @bkindivisible.bsky.social's awesome art build for the 10/18 #NoKings march yesterday in Park Slope. No lie: Brooklyn Indivisible is ORGANIZED and ACTIVE. Check 'em out and get involved, y'all!

Person wearing a denim smock lifts a stencil off of a painted round NO KINGS sign. They just completed painting the red line across the yellow crown on the shield. Very satisfying seeing the stencil come off.

Currently at the ICE facility in portland, OR. Some far right agitators have posted plans online to attack the mutual aid stations and take over the area at 7:00.

Sign says “ANTIFO Anti Federal Occupation”

on WIC they don’t qualify you for any meat proteins. beans, cheese, yogurt, eggs. but no meat. so that’s fun.
