Oh it’s at 8pm eastern. Forgot that part.
They’re still making me do capitalism because “it’s my job” or whatever so I haven’t had time to promote the next @tbfighters.org TB Ed Talk, which is one I’m so excited for

I also can’t believe Dr. Keshavjee said yes? Haven’t been this starstruck since @cdmitpih.bsky.social back in October

Omg it's that time!! Make the task suggestion, go go go!!
Hello! During our yearly fundraiser I pop balloons that have tasks inside of them. The tasks are, like “Pretend to be a crab, you have to do a good job” or “sing Smash Mouth’s All Star in a Terrible British Accent” or “Eat a banana filled with mayonnaise and pickles”.

PLEASE SUGGEST TASKS!!

From a sociologist. Boost this.
The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

File Freedom of Info Act requests to ICE if you want to take up their time & resources. Sand in the gear resistance, it's a thing. Not only get info, but tie up their resources helping the public w pprwork requests so they can't use it for the bad things they are doing youtube.com/shorts/JYIX4...
Go bother ICE with FOIA requests

Reasons why you, yes you, should make a P4A video this year. 🧵
1. We cannot vote for a video that does not get made.
2. Your video can help make bad things less bad.
3. Your video can help make good things happen.
4. Even if your charity does not win, ripple effects can help your charity.

If you're in the path of this storm, check in on your neighbors. That's a good start.

This just changed my doom scrolling to hope scrolling and I can't say how much I needed it. Even if he has run out of funds to match or gone to bed, just seeing all the ppl trying to help is so beautiful. If you can, please help. We will get through these times together 💖 ✊
For those who can, here are links to donate directly to local efforts on the ground resisting ICE's terrorizing of Minneapolis. Let me know what you donated to where, and I'll match it until I get a panicked call from my bank!

If simply possessing a gun is justification for your execution, then do you really have the right to keep and bear arms?

The horrors ICE is engaging in isn’t fake news. Lawyers are giving very specific accounts of people following the asylum process. School staff and neighbors witnessed arrests.

Even law enforcement says ICE is ignoring due process, racially profiling citizens, and holding people in awful conditions.
