Hello!
I’m a Chinese Ashkenazi American Jew whose work focuses on liberatory spiritual embodiment supporting personal and collective wellness in mind, body, and spirit.

My day job is running a non-profit I founded to do the above work. I’m also a martial artist, dad, musician, and nature lover.
Reported ICE raids today at multiple Cilantro Taqueria locations, a beloved local Mexican franchise here in Cleveland.

The nearest one is not even five minutes from where I live.

This astonishing, even for the ADL.

I have a feeling we’re gonna start finding out exactly how much lower a lot of our “leaders” can actually go though.

I don’t actually know where and what is safe to post online.

Listen I’m not saying anyone should be storming the Capitol but contrast that with the resigned “oh well” post-election hand shrug of the Democrats when they should have been fighting tooth and nail every day from the Election until today shows exactly why they aren’t the leaders we can follow.

Do other places also have this many drivers with resting zombie face or is that just Cleveland?

I hadn’t been on X in over a year and while I’ve been enjoying Threads there were a lot of people I was following on Twitter who I hadn’t migrated over — but now am following many of whom here — and it’s nice to see (read) folks again after some time!

Just a quick note to those new here, if you think someone's post is worth other people reading, repost it. Liking it does not have the same effect here as on the dead-bird site. There is no algorithm. That's one of the reasons we like it.

When screaming into the void, remember to scream from the diaphragm (rather than the top of the chest and throat) so that you don’t lose your voice — because you’re gonna need that voice in the weeks, months, and years to come.

Jewish folks who are doing / interested in work and practice regarding counter-oppressive communal safety — ie keeping both Jews *and* all our neighbors safe — what skills, resources, and capacity building would be most valuable to develop and organize around?

Hello. It’s me.
