I have a nervous system issue w temperature regulation. I puke when I'm cold. If you'd like to help a disabled person stop 🤢 this winter please consider helping me buy a heater 🙏

Space heaters tend to catch 🔥 so I need something that can be left unattended 😬

TY! 💙

So uuuuh I didn't realize these were different things but apparently my body has a distinction between "chills" and "shiver" lol I've got a fever rn with chills and it's SO WEIRD because my body doesn't shiver much anymore so it's just whole body tingles in a bad way.

Mental institutions have more power than police

They can drug you, keep you, and involuntarily commit you based on literally nothing. One of the biggest missed opportunities in criminal justice reform is uniting with the disabled rights movement in abolishing 51/50 laws which are used against women

Ladies… pay attention!

The SAVE Act would require voter ID to match your birth certificate.

Almost 80% of married women take their spouses name and would be ineligible to vote.

Trump knows this. It’s what he wants.

He wants to stop women from voting.

I'm sick and the only thing that's helping me breathe is caldo de pollo with a squeeze of lime juice and a splash of Valentina in a stainless steel tumbler next to my bed in the middle of the night.

Guaifenesin? Useless. Sudafed. Useless. Vix? Useless.

Pero caldo de pollo? My lord and savior lol

Today, it’s not your vote that determines whether the government brutalizes you or sends officers to your door. It’s your neighbors’ vote.

If you’re ok with this happening to Minnesotans, don’t get comfortable. You won’t be exempt for long.

In the end, a lawless administration comes for everyone.

I have to start having more fun. Have to. There is no point to any of this without fun. Zero reason. It's not a luxury, it's mandatory. It's as important as eating. I've been neglecting it and it shows and I'm going to do better.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

And this is why I will NEVER lose hope. The people are rising.
At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely.

That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

One week ago they shot and killed a white woman in broad daylight.

Tonight they’ve shot a protester in the leg and put six children in the hospital.

The kids were in a car with their Dad who was trying to get them out of the neighborhood.

ICE threw a flash bang into the car.

They have no limits.
Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.
That is what was relayed

This is surreal. 4 Oglala Lakota men kidnapped by ICE in Minneapolis have finally been located. One of them was released but the other 3 are being held at Fort Snelling, a former concentration camp used to imprison Native people incl. the Dakota 38 during Dakota Wars.

My husband was on the 2 train and a guy started braying about how Renee Good deserved to die and her "lesbian lover" did too. My husband got pissed and said, "You're absolutely disgusting." "Fuck you!" the guy said. "Fuck YOU!" my husband said. The guy left.

See? We just need to talk to each other.

T_T protect your peace 💙 I love this account SO MUCH for its much needed palate cleanser content.
I deleted my previous posts about my harasser to protect the sanctuary, but I will not be using this bluesky account anymore if someone can threaten me here, via email, and on the phone without consequences. Bye for now.

My thoughts on fragrance free curl talk mousse as someone with fine barely wavy hair:

I scrunched it in while my hair was damp, let it air dry. It did have hold which I like. What I don't like is that my hair is dark and greasy so on freshly washed hair it adds shine and I did a double take lol

For the love of books, please don't put clear sleeves on your books' dust jackets without wiping off the dust and the sticker residue 😩

Wipe the book gently with 70% rubbing alcohol if the cover is glossy, or dust thoroughly if it has a papery finish.

Otherwise you're basically begging for foxing.

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

So in the state I live in, food stamps (SNAP) at some point will not let you buy sweets/energy drinks/certain juices.

So people with hypoglycemia can just go die? What about people who have POTS that need electrolyte drinks to make it through the day? And working ppl who survive on energy drinks?

Hospitals are putting off voluntary surgeries due to the MASSIVE amount of people coming in with flu and COVID cause they dont have enough staff and people arent getting vaccinated.

Healthcare is a system. And when systems are overwhelmed people die.
