As another heavily marketed family holiday looms in the US, I want you to remember:

Not all blood relatives are worthy of your time

Sometimes the best way to celebrate a holiday is to ignore it completely

You have a right to your boundaries & it’s not a celebration if it feels obligatory

I absolutely believe this is the case. I wondered that yesterday cause they only needed 8 and got 8. They’re dumb like that. Should have maybe thrown in a couple more Dems for us to believe it’s just these specific ones. #Trump #Mamdani #traitors #NotAmerica

It’s about time that those #Christians out there, who are #Trump supporters, see what a Christian is really supposed to be like. Humble, compassionate and look to each other for #support not #abuse.
Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"

Just a reminder that Walmart scams more than $2 billion off the American taxpayer every single month because of SNAP. If you think mega corporations are not the true welfare queens, think again.

42 million hungry Americans are a product of a system where big biz grifts and GOP blame the poor.

If you ever want to know what to do with ICE look to #Chicago & #Portland. They’re actively fighting this shit daily and have learned a lot actually, so check it out and follow @parkroseperma.bsky.social✌️❤️‍🩹

I've been having a lot of trouble with YT demonetizing vids where I talk about what 🧊 is doing. I realized it is the AI scan that is catching word combos like "ICE, ambulance, immigrant". Ultimately, I had to ask for an extended human review and changing the title to get this vid cleared.
ICE in Beaverton. That's as specific as YT will let me get with the title.

Trauma survivors don't seek others' approval for the hell of it. Our nervous system is crystal clear that, in the past, our ability to entertain or be useful to others was literally the difference between being relatively safe (safer, anyway) or not.

That conditioning dies hard.

Journalists aren't the only ones with the right to film police, @adamrose.bsky.social told @latimes.com.

The First Amendment protects everyone — including cop watchers like Carlitos Ricardo Parias, who documented immigration raids and is now in federal custody.

Hey, journalists covering protests!

Knowing your rights is crucial. If your phone is seized during an arrest, remember: You can decline warrantless searches.

Your computer, phone, and other digital devices hold vast amounts of personal information. This sensitive data is worth protecting from prying eyes, including those of law enforcement. So, if you're a journalist arrested covering an event, or headed to cover an event where there is a chance you cou

Remember just because you are peaceful it doesn’t mean the regime will be.

The protests are expected to be peaceful however the regime wants to crackdown with or without an excuse, don’t give them the satisfaction of arresting or terrorizing you. Be cool, be brave, and be strong. #3E #NoKings

I feel that some of you need regular reminders of how unpopular this man is. And frankly I see him getting even more so as the economy worsens. Again, this doesn't mean that he will give up any power but it does mean that WE HAVE POWER TOO.

So much love and appreciation for fellow lovers of humanity❤️
We’re back at the Broadview Processing Center protesting ICE this morning.

The good news? They tore down the unlawful fence we demanded come down.

The bad news? We’re still lacking accountability, transparency, and our First Amendment rights.

Join us today at 1930 Beach Street. See you soon.

Our government is basically made up of #rapists, #pedophiles, #racists, and #gestapo. I’ve lived my life with too much faith in the #averageman and it’s so painfully obvious that they don’t care about other people, especially if they’re white. That’s why it’s gotten this far.
That group chat is exactly why we call you fascists.
