Abolish ICE is the floor, not the ceiling.
You can't reform something which is completely broken and corrupt. You need to tear it down.
Democrats not on board with this aren't your allies. They will betray you and your communities in the future.

ICE murdered Renée Good in broad daylight. Less than 3 weeks later, they killed Alex Pretti, shooting him 10 times. Every day, we watch as people are ripped from their cars, their homes, their lives.
We can't allow ourselves to look away from this cruelty. Abolish ICE.

AI generated content is horrible & I often wonder how these companies are so resourced & enabled by govts to develop esp off the back of copyrighted materials.
It occurred to me that it’s a lot easier to get away with fascism if people are accustomed to having to ask if an outrageous video is AI 🫤

I’m so scared. I’ve been wanting to leave the US for years as I’m BLACK, DISABLED, and a LESBIAN! I just want to be safe and heal.
Please if you can donate to my GoFundMe. I have friends in a few places that can help me get settled. I still have medical needs as well like acupuncture & my tooth.

Note the invitation to complain to the HRC about "discrimination on the ground of sex, including gender identity, gender expression and innate variations of sex characteristics" at the end.
I will certainly be doing so.

One of the things cis women have long fought for bodily autonomy with are cries such as "get your laws off my body" & "my body, my choice" ... trans folks are no different.
This is why the ban on puberty blockers for trans folks is so incredibly stupid and ideological.

Halt to puberty blockers curses 'young transgender women to stigma'
That's the reaction of a model who used puberty blockers as a teen to rules halting new prescriptions for young people.

It would be great if COP hosts really demonstrate they will have plenty of accommodation available...So when you get locked out of your apartment at 1am it’s not impossible to get an emergency hotel!

It’s too early yet to know what to make of tonight’s news that Türkiye will physically host #COP31, with Australia as President & some partnership with the Pacific. But at least for my community, this is a really tough blow at a critical time & it will reduce our participation.

In the last chapter of Alice’s memoir, “Year of the Tiger,” she wrote her own future obituary.
The wonderful “oracle, storyteller, cyborg, trouble-maker, activist, night owl” we loved so much closed it with:
“Enjoy all of Alice’s good shit, and may you create some good shit as well.”
