Patience is a Gun
On a road a pellet in a pond
Imbecile to king
Not the one you think
I see nothing
I hope it can feel seen
Undo a row alone
Stamped to travel
Son you're not from 'round here
Mulch
Gravel crunching boots
A tunnel
Hunting for the future
Bleeding at your feet

ICE has been raiding my neighborhood and surrounding ones for the last couple of weeks now. They commandeered my local church (against the pastor's will) for a staging site and raided supermarkets, parks, Goodwills, bus stops, you name it.
The national media's been silent. So has @mayor.lacity.gov.

Engagement on our updates re: ICE kidnappings/fed siege of Los Angeles is significantly lower on Bluesky compared to Twitter. Do ppl on here not care about LA anymore? Are feeds being taken over by liberal commentators? What's going on?
Community members on the ground can't do it all. We need help.

The feds are escalating in Los Angeles. We've seen record high kidnappings and our communities are under attack. The media focus on LA has died down so electeds don't feel the need to even feign opposition.
People are out here fighting. We need all of us. Join the struggle. Defend your neighbors.

can't overemphasize how joyful and proud the fascists of the 20th century would be at how well the 21st century fascists are being treated by mainstream companies and media outlets
Instagram is hosting a thriving neo-Nazi marketplace. Influencers like Hayden McDougall and Dylan Shane push Nazi imagery and extremist merch to massive audiences — content that violates Meta’s own rules. The platform isn’t just failing to stop it; it’s enabling extremist propaganda to scale.

Anti-muslim racists have been dancing around CAIR for years and years with spurious accusations. It doesn't help that mainstream "anti-extremist" orgs (like the one at GW) continue to push "reports" about CAIR.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said that Muslims are a “threat to our freedom” on Tuesday as he targeted the largest Muslim civil rights organization in the U.S. with a foreign terrorist organization label in an escalation of a movement of anti-Muslim hate in the state.
Abbott Says Muslims Are “Threat to Our Freedom” as He Targets Civil Rights Group With Terrorist Designation
Governors do not have the authority to designate groups as a foreign terrorist organization.

The decision is a major blow for Republicans, in Texas and nationally, who pushed through this unusual mid-decade redistricting at the behest of President Donald Trump.

I get why a lot of non-disabled people want to pretend respiratory illnesses don’t exist, but as we’re coming up on another event I can’t safely attend, I encourage you to just THINK about wearing a mask at events - or at least on the train/ plane there, where there’s probably no reason not to

Media literacy is low overall but it’s also very high among a lot of people now and we’re not stupid enough to believe that ~the rules of journalism~ - especially at powerful institutions like the NYT - are real anymore. They obviously put their finger on the scale or let up when they want to.
