The children always suffer most.
School has been cancelled tomorrow and Friday across the city of Minneapolis, because our federal government has made it unsafe for children here.

I live in rural Minnesota.

Rural Minnesota is fucking pissed, y'all.

Old white grandmas and grandpas out in rural Minnesota are keyed up. They're turning -out-.

Don't you fucking dare let the bot campaigns tell you otherwise.

I encourage folk to read this. The whole “feel the fear and do it anyway” malarkey is all well and good if you’re a white person with less to lose or fear.
I wrote about Brené Brown and "Courage Culture" over on Substack. Tap in!

"Thus, 'courage culture'...is the white-coded myth-based belief that vulnerability is experienced homogeneously across racial, gender, sexual, class, and ability lines."

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions

FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

Insanity: Sources close to the White House told the Washington Post Trump lost interest in backing Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado to lead the country because she accepted her Nobel Peace Prize rather than demanding it be given to Trump, which was viewed as an “ultimate sin.”

A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles.

When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies.

This is outrageous.

In America, where irony is dead, a hotel chain uses a policy denying shelter to local people, for fear of accidentally housing homeless persons…

This is an important moment, and we need to explain to the public why it's important.

An agency with the power to decide who gets to broadcast is supposed to be independent from the president so it won't abuse that power. If it's not, then we are letting the president seize the power to censor.
