DC wargamer abroad with two borked cats, an oversized dog, and an unhealthy interest in moral injury, chaplaincy and WMDs. The least prepared chaplaincy student and most relaxed part-time faculty member. Her dresses have pockets.

Before I moved overseas, I was able to put a hundred of these in Little Free Libraries across DC. Do me a favor and print a few locally appropriate ones out, if you can.
50 fresh "How to Report ICE" zines folded and ready to deploy in Little Free Libraries around town.

Versions for multiple regions available from @meganpiont.bsky.social

An old nuke guy I worked with used to say "They don't wanna live in a world without Paris and don't think the rest of us should ever have to either."

TBF their field grade officers pretty much say that even when we're in the room with them under much friendlier circumstances, before going out for cigarettes and leaving us alone for two hours

Love how our weekly call with my in-laws so the toddler can hang out with her grandparents are turning increasingly awkward as my country threatens to invade theirs.

For anyone else reading this, feeling helpless, and wondering what they can do: the synagogue has a donation form and I've donated with a note that it's for fire recovery immediate expenses. www.bethisraelms.org

"Hahaha" said Gandalf, hitting his weed pen for the seventeeth time that hour. "Fuck".
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Cannot emphasize this enough.
If you are not paid to analyze snuff footage, you should not be watching it. You cannot unsee a murder. You can be useful and effect change without this being in your brain for the rest of your life. Go outside. Help a neighbor. Love your community. Turn off autoplay.
Settings -> Content & Media -> disable Autoplay for videos and GIFs

you should do this on all your apps

The resident dean who was fired was given only ten days to vacate his housing. @harvard.edu is putting a Black family — with a newborn baby — out on the street because of comments opposing white supremacy.

Please donate to their gofundme:

I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement.

Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.

ICE observers in the Twin Cities are in need of dash cams to prevent further intimidation and frivolous claims.

Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

If you've been looking for a way to help, we'd sure appreciate it!

Homophobia is truly just gender because on the men’s side you have cloak and dagger love affairs and on the women’s side you have this

I'm just a gal, married to a person from a country my country's president keeps threatening to invade, asking to not have to figure out a back up to my back to my back up plan for my career path and immigration nonsense.

Sure would be cool if geopolitics didn't simultaneously fuck with my career and family life.

kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

Following a 14 hour drive home through too much Germany, it has come to my attention that Germany is too big.
We should fix that. -me, and probably the guys who wrote the Treaty of Versailles

This is $2 away from $55K on this fundraiser. TWO DOLLARS. Please let's keep these fundraisers going. I keep hitting refresh and asking myself: "is this platform working?"

Let's make sure @psabortionfund.bsky.social has the funds they need in 2026 to provide abortions.

But seriously, holy shit, it really takes a mild-mannered Scandinavian centrist politician to make me get justifiably nervous anytime I hear them talk about human rights. Homie, why do human rights always lead to you deporting kids.
Way to stare into the abyss and become the monster yourself, ikås?
