Abolish ICE.
There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Plumber fixed the hot water!! He did say it’ll happen again without a new part but he will tell my landlords what part is needed. Hopefully we can avoid this issue again! I’m so looking forward to a hot shower with water pressure before work tonight!

Ok kiwis- my new place has a low pressure hot water tank- landlord keeps saying it’s fine- meanwhile I’m taking freezing cold showers cause it takes more than 45 minutes to warm up and at best it’s luke warm. This is how much pressure I get on full blast out of the sink- I’m not crazy in thinking

River is back home on some good pain meds and antibiotics. I will keep those up for a few days and then try and get her into the regular vet as soon as I can. Back at work and then heading straight to the old place to clean from here. It’s going to be quite the chaotic day

Sonya Massey will not be forgotten.
Nothing we ever say or do will bring her back, but today’s decision is a step toward change and justice.
May her memory be a blessing and may it continue to fuel our work to build a system that protects all its citizens.

Update: The Trans bathroom bounty hunter bill in Kansas has just passed the Kansas House.
They have rushed it to the Senate for passage.
If it passes, the most extreme anti-trans bill in the nation is about to be sent to the Governor's desk.

Officially unpacked and got the art up on the walls! I have a long list of small things that I need for the new house but none are essential to survive. Hopefully I’ll get that list whittled down quickly! But it’s back to work tomorrow!

ICE HAS TO GO
Even if Bovino gets fired, ICE has to go.
Even if Noem is out, ICE has to go.
Even when Trump leaves office, ICE has to go.
As protests grow and ICE's popularity drops, we may see concessions and leadership changes, like Bovino's departure. ICE still has to go.
