![What is a peacetime emergency?
In Minnesota, a peacetime emergency is an executive order that can be called when cities and counties don't have the adequate resources to address an emergency, defined as "an act of nature, a technological failure or malfunction, a terrorist incident, an industrial accident, a hazardous materials accident or a civil disturbance [that] endangers life and property."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2yhglxsi2owchryafic2gmr3/bafkreicfdeipsblnzb3oxnfnqh45fkzjo5p2s32ar3oqtgpnc46chd2ff4@jpeg)

Why haven't federal agents begun widespread crackdowns on US citizens?
Simple: they are still busy kidnapping and deporting immigrants.
But as soon as they can, they will use the same infrastructure and tactics against you.
Fighting for immigrants is fighting to protect ourselves and each other.

for @autostraddle.bsky.social, i wrote about how minnesota's queer-owned businesses (and queer folks in general) are standing up to ICE and defending their communities:
How Minnesota’s Queer-Owned Businesses Are Leading the Fight Against ICE
As the federal occupation continues, community members are committing themselves to standing up to the feds while supporting the state’s immigrant communities in any way possible.

Here's what DHS doesn't want you to know: Working for ICE is one of the safest jobs in America — and last year was the second-safest year for the agency on record.

ICE's Masks Are All a Lie
Working for ICE is actually less dangerous than being an elementary school student in America.

something something the more individualized model of trans healthcare also results in further breakdown of gender as a social class/hierarchy
One big missing piece of the picture of trans healthcare debate has been the shift from a one-size fits all program that emphasized a cis passing appearance as the only acceptable end to an individualized approach that offers only as much medical intervention as the patient wants and needs.

Benito said "God Bless America," and then proceeded to name every country in South and North America.

Bro literally came out and said “it’s our labor and culture that has always made the Americas great: y’all are just the beneficiaries of slave owners from sea to shining sea,” and I am here for it.
It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.
Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

My takeaways from Bad Bunny nobody asked for
1. the inclusion of afro-Latinidad
2. the use of kids AS kids. they weren't doing much but vibing (said positively).
3. I think there are a lot of easter eggs that require repeat viewing
4. everyone looked like they were having so much fun
