The power these men hold is thin. And it gets thinner whenever we are willing to stand with survivors against the powerful. When we are willing to stop being complicit with power, or fearful of the threats spread out in every direction by abusers that they'll hurt anyone who exposes them.

This applies to so many areas beyond Epstein-like figures and abuse also.
We're seeing in LA, MPLS, Chicago, etc that an invading force funded more than most nations' armies and sent to intimidate the public of broadly liberal cities across America can be sabotaged by old ladies with whistles.

Grief has a point, even as gut wrenching and consuming as it feels.
I cannot think of anything unhealthier for me right now, as I grapple with my mother's loss, than engaging with a chabot of her--neither human nor real in any meaningful way.
Not to mention, she would haunt me if I tried this.

I understand why I find body cameras, training, and partnering with the police an inadequate response to ICE, but I don’t understand how you support these solutions with policing and then reject them with ICE, and I imagine that’s the frame these legislators are working from.
