HELL YEAH!! All workers deserve to be treated with respect and have a say in the terms of their employment. Sex workers are no exception.

I can confirm this is true and I can also say that the lack of an eviction moratorium is fueling this trend.
Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Reminder that ICE was invented after 9/11 to terrorize people on US soil.
W’s “war on terror” incl mass surveillance, even more racial profiling & aggressive policing & treating immigration as a security issue. Muslims & Brown folk perceived as such can tell you how that went.
Abolish.

Call it what it is, @nbcnews.com. Concentration camp.
Every time.
The OED defines a concentration camp as “a camp in which large numbers of people, esp. political prisoners or members of persecuted minorities, are deliberately imprisoned in a relatively small area with inadequate facilities.”

The proposed centers are so large that some could house as many as 8,000 detainees at once, according to a DHS spreadsheet of more than 20 potential locations that was verified by NBC News. The largest federal prison in the U.S., for example, has roughly 4,000 inmates.
ICE plans to build mega warehouses for immigration detention spark growing concern
Sources at two government contractors told NBC News they were worried that new warehouses — and the large numbers of immigrants who would be housed in them — would present safety problems.

Psyched to watch #GreenDay and #BadBunny yell out some big things tomorrow in their televised concerts. I understand there’s some sort of broadly-celebrated American religious rite between these two events, but frankly I was always the kind of person who went to church for the music. #HalftimeShow

again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are
his net worth is $253.2 billion.
so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire
and then do it again tomorrow
and again the day after that
and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

It's the first day of Kwanzaa, so like every year, I'll be posting about it. 😀

In this time of everything trying to slide into super fascism, remember that we are united.
Our unity frightens them. Let it.

Abu Hatab has become one of Gaza’s silent witnesses, a man whose old hands have performed the final act of dignity for an unfathomable 18,000 people, many of whom have been incinerated, disembowelled, dismembered, beheaded by the Israelis during their extermination campaign in the besieged enclave
'I can't sleep': The man who has buried over 18,000 Palestinians in Gaza amid the genocide
