Like.... to be blunt the whole point is to trigger a flight or hide response from those who are likely to be targeted by ICE. The alerting them *is* the harm reduction. 30 seconds can me the difference between escaping and a one way ticket to a hell prison.

Abolish ICE.
There’s no reforming it.
There’s no compromise.
There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

loving this super spacy and groovy EP from kolorit called lose ideen.
6 tracks, nice and bouncy grooves with a lot of subtle forward-pushing energy.
fave tracks so far:
- Auf Klettergerüsten sitzen und rauchen

Because zoning is de facto controlled by the local alderperson, it's almost impossible to proactively upzone areas close to the 'L' when the ward map looks like this ⬇️.
State preemption is basically our only hope, and I hope the legislature picks that back up this session. We came close last year.
