Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

This is appalling. Civilized countries look at us and are rightly horrified that this idiocy and cruelty is sanctioned by--encouraged by--our government.

The news out of DC is consistently awful but it’s still kind of amusing to see all these tough guy members of Congress lining up in front of the cameras to say things like, “I can’t step outside the Rayburn Building when I’m here because if I hear rap music I’ll shit myself.”

the best part about making this a social norm is that suddenly everyone you know is REALLY COOL and also everyone thinks you're likely REALLY COOL too.
Keep this nugget from @margaret.bsky.social in mind: don't talk about the cool shit you're doing, just assume that everyone is doing cool shit that we can't talk about.
Do not

Announce or even hint on your social media that you’re doing illegal or potentially illegal things. Even if for excellent reasons.
You will be a target and make the people you aid targets.

it really does warm my heart every time we North Americans act like real neighbors to each other. seeing Mexico and Canada rush in to help California is beautiful. speaks to the best in us. don't forget that in the days to come.
