signs like these are up all over Chicago cafes and storefronts (here, cafes in Brighton Park and Back of the Yards) warning ICE not to enter without a judicial warrant

"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)

As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.
Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

About a year ago, we announced a hiatus on this project. Due to an outpouring of support, we pushed ourselves to continue, and over the last year, we’re proud of the interviews and roundups we’ve been...

It doesn't look like they're on bluesky, but tonight, Secret Roller Disco took the party on wheels down to the ICE facility, and that's pretty neat.

You should also be saving PIRC’s hotline to your phone contacts to report ICE activity.

Come celebrate Ori’s pre trial release and show support for our city council tonight that will pass new ordinances to codify our sanctuary city status into law and officially tell the Feds not to deploy troops here!

10/12/25 World Naked Bike/protest at ICE.

Organizers stressed that they do not wish to diminish what is happening to immigrants but that these kinds of protests serve a purpose, particularly when there are threats to send the National Guard to our city.

The band needs us! Let’s show up and make noise for Oriana and the Unpresidented Brass Band!
We will be going to Clark county jail tonight to support our band member and the others who are being held there after arrest yesterday.
Taking us citizens out of state to detain them without charge is a new action from the Feds and should be opposed. There will be music 🙂🎺

After the No King's March next Saturday, the Defense Fund PDX is throwing a street fair to raise money for the Portland bail fund.

Someone in my mentions is upset because these people haven’t suffered the worst at ICE’s hands and therefore they shouldn’t be praised for being out on the streets?

Yeah, no. To push back on these people we need everyone — especially those with relative privilege — to get up and get involved.
Portland, you magnificent weirdos

Mnemonics can help.

971 is the "other" PDX area code.
247 ==> 24/7, open all the time
1072 ==> for me, 107 is easy ( #RCTID #BAONPDX) and there are two such orgs. You may need to find your own for this.
Stay safe out there y'all.

If you're biking nekkid, the high for today is only about 53° F, so make sure you have a plan to warm back up.

If you're *not* nekkid, it's a good idea to have the jail support number written discreetly somewhere on your body where it won't be easily rubbed off.

I am writing this because it has swiftly become crystal clear to me that many people have no idea what is happening or how this works. Here is a thread for non-academics to put into context what just happened to Dr. Mark Bray, a fellow historian.

"Is Portland on fire? Depends on if the person you ask is lying" is a hell of a journalistic low, even for the Times.
A classic case of irresponsible both-sidesism from the NYT. The story is that Trump and MAGA propagandists are lying about Portland to incite a conflict, not that there are different views of the matter.
