Protest reminder, DO NOT "sign up" to any protest. Just be there. Do not give the oppressors information on who you roll with it. They are scraping it even faster nowadays with AI than they did 10 years ago. Tell a few family/friends where you'll be and what time you'll be back for checkup, thats it
