Just your typical neurospicy gay atheist in chronic pain, with immigrant family of all statuses - I teach math, write, make music and films, but I don’t usually call myself a mathematician, writer, musician, or filmmaker. Thanks, imposter syndrome!

If you can handle a story about being a gay kid in the eighties in a place and time where being gay was simply NOT an option, this might be for you. It’s not for everyone. Based almost entirely on true events. If Florida knew it existed, they’d surely ban it. a.co/d/h3sfdBd

Wow. I stopped using TikTok last year but now it’s time to make absolutely sure I have deleted it from my phone altogether. The data they track is terrifying now.

Probably best to delete your account altogether if you can and remove the app from your phone.

Local news sources are still often the most trustworthy.

What happened this morning is disgusting. That video was horrifying.

How much more of this are we going to have to take?

Just a reminder that when Kyle Rittenhouse showed up to a protest like this … Donald Trump and his propagandists had a very different narrative about guns and protestors …

They are nothing short of a terror group, carrying out what amounts to ethnic cleansing on the streets of the US, sanctioned and ordered by the government itself. Nobody is safe right now. Be careful, please.

Every community deserves protection, not fear & intimidation!

Rep Norma Torres is voting no on DHS funding that prioritizes abuse & unchecked power. Congress must fund safety, disaster response, & healthcare, not terror with impunity.

Deporting children with cancer.
Using a 5-year-old as bait.
Shooting moms.

ICE is beyond reform. And today the House is voting to bankroll more terror. Hell no.

Yes ma’am! Please watch and share. This was an awesome talk.

And then do all the things she talks about in here. Call Congress. Stand up. Resist. Make it count.

There is simply no excuse for continuing to fund ICE. They aren’t law enforcement - they’re a terror squad.
