Disabled people already push themselves way harder than they should.
They already go out of their comfort zones just to get through the day.
They already try harder than you'll ever know

Morbid Reminder
On Average Autistic ppl die 16 years earlier than our peers. And even earlier for any co-occurring conditions like ADHD.
This is attributed largely to the literal stress of being Autistic in a world that doesn’t accept us as we are.

Cis people being weird about trans people makes me think about king crabs.
Bear with me for this one because it will make sense.
You know king crabs, right? Giant crab, lives up north, has long legs, very expensive and tasty, featured on many a mukbang
Did you know they are technically not crabs? 1/

Our ditching due process?
Our corruption?

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I simply do not want to be “allies” with a country willing to do things like this. I want my country to stand up against the kind of people who do things like this.
BREAKING: Palestinian witnesses and hospitals say Israeli forces opened fire toward hundreds of people waiting for aid trucks in central Gaza, killing at least 25 people.

My dude fell asleep during the birthday party he threw for himself, while millions of people showed up to tell him to go fuck himself. This is not a powerful man. America is not "great again." We've lost everything in the eyes of the world.

None of this is sustainable. It's laughable to think they have enough manpower to enforce something like full-on martial law with the few brownshirts they can bring to the party, in a country that has as its unofficial motto "You're Not The Boss Of Me".
The fact they chose California as the flash point is also an indicator that they don't think these things through
LA has like 4M+ people. Sending every single ICE officer is ~20K, LAPD is 9K, LASD is 10K. Going in at 100:1 manpower – leaving zero bodies for literally anything else – is foolish

Not enough personnel to do martial law
The secret of American law enforcement is that most people voluntarily follow most laws most of the time
If that changes for a significant %, things get overstretched very fast
