And here it is. This is the batch of songs that came right after Holy Shit. I started doing demos for these with Paul at the beginning of 2020. The pandemic hit, and it patiently waited until 2023. 1/?

I can’t remember a plausibly threatened invasion by the US that has received less attention and alarm by the press.

As ICE continues to terrorize Chicagoland, protesters gathered this morning outside the Broadview detention center—throwing stuffed animals at DHS agents, playing music through tear gas assaults, and putting their bodies on the line to stop ICE vehicles. My latest.

There's a video going viral in Chicago right now by a guy claiming large scale raids will start around 2AM in specific neighborhoods. It's BS. The person who posted it has a checkered history of false claims to try to gain followers and drum up business for a private security company he runs.

Last year, the FCC voted to cap prison phone calls across the country at 6 cents per minute. The new Trump-appointed FCC chair blocked that regulation before it set in.

for those of you who need to know the real deal about the ritz crackers recall it's because some packages labeled cheese ritz have peanut butter ritz instead, which if you got a peanut allergy could be a very bad scene, so here's the story. www.nbcchicago.com/consumer/rit...

as the government allows and enables discrimination against trans people, it's important to look at how trans people have looked out for each other in recent history.

@tsdav.bsky.social writes about Transy House, where for 13 years one couple sheltered unhoused trans people, including kids.

Protesters and ICE watchers are gathering again outside immigration court this morning, where ICE agents have been kidnapping people after mandated hearings in downtown Chicago.

Sessions have been canceled (and arrests prevented) multiple times this week due to their presence.

At immigration court in Chicago this morning.

Per reporter inside who was told he can't use his phone, at least three people have been detained by ICE this morning after their hearings; two men and one woman.

Two black SUVs with plainclothes agents inside have arrived, presumably for transport.
