Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

If you are or know the person who got hit in a Minneapolis parking garage by a right winger today, I just wanna know that you’re OK. And if you are willing to talk to me on background or with your name, I would love to. I hope you’re safe. Zach from @statuscoupnews.bsky.social

Weird how some drug dealers get pardons while others are subjected to extrajudicial murder just on suspicion of it.
June 2024: "Arkansas Congressman Steve Womack‘s [(R)] son James Phillip Womack was sentenced to eight years in prison after pleading guilty to distributing methamphetamine."

Jan. 2026: Trump pardons James Phillip Womack.

Again, I’m going to keep banging the drum that the fact we are threatening the territorial sovereignty of our closest allies is not only a gross violation of our UN & NATO treaty obligations & poses a massive threat to national security & world order but also should immediately end this presidency.

THREAD of nuisance streamers currently harassing anti-ICE activists in Portland, OR. This will be an ongoing project. Do not interact with these grifters. Many of them will provoke violence for views.

Getty photographer was tackled by about 50 agents while covering Whipple.

He threw his camera at another photographer to prevent it from being confiscated.

When sitting Governors and a Mayors talk about what the federal government is doing, that's of course a felony.

But when the outgoing President conspires for weeks to overturn an election he lost then tells a crowd to storm the Capitol, that's of course a sacred and protected "official act."

The very dutiful transcription of the fact that DOJ is launching an investigation into Walz and Frey doesn't exhibit the least critical thinking about what the crime was.

CBS at least names it but ... think about this, folks.

Felony saying mean things?

Apparently the State Department, led Secretary of State Marco Rubio, the nation's top diplomat, released a strategic plan. Goal 1 is U.S. National Sovereignty. Goal 2 is "The Western Hemisphere and Establishment of the Donroe Doctrine."

There's more, but take that in.

You're paying for this.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill gave BILLIONS to ICE and giant corporations—using money meant to lower your health care costs.

Instead of helping your mom get cancer treatment, your tax dollars are being used to terrorize communities.

Somebody somewhere is having one of the worst days of their life-- & doesn't have the safety or support to honestly talk about it. If that's you, know that your lack of safety & support doesn't mean you or your pain don't matter.

Just breathe, & take this one minute at a time.

Cool CPTSD recovery hack that works every time: take the current year, and subtract your birth year.

That number is the perfect age at which to begin working your trauma or addiction recovery.

When I tell a trauma survivor "you're okay," I don't mean you're perfect. I don't mean your life is perfect. I don't mean I don't know or believe you're suffering. I mean that bullsh*t narrative about how your suffering is your fault & you're incapable of recovery is...bullsh*t.

Your mileage may vary, but many trauma survivors benefit enormously from creating at last one "cozy" space in their life-- even just a little corner of their world that feels safe, contained, warm enough, & contains something soft or otherwise soothing to the touch.

Your body is sacred. The fact that someone in the past did not understand or respect that does not make it less so.

Evil people defile sacred spaces every day. Those spaces are not rebuilt by denying their power or beauty-- but by affirming it.

The core of trauma recovery is rebuilding & nurturing our relationship w/ ourselves-- & in that project, no little act of self-compassion or self-care is actually "little."

Don't overcomplicate self-care. Ask yourself if you'd do it for someone you love-- & if so, do it for you.

Fun & humor can be underappreciated trauma recovery tools that many survivors have been conditioned to believe they "can't" or "shouldn't" use. Because "if you can laugh or have fun, are you REALLY traumatized?"

(Yes. Survivors can absolutely be both wounded & able to laugh.)
