Trying to maintain my sanity in this shithole country. Queer. Married with children.

I do not have the words for the horror that is watching the things I predicted and warned of and even somethings that I didn’t dare think to myself while the vast majority of people not immediately affected are not taking any discernible action or even offering a word of support.

anyway, i got word tonight just before all this that ICE is doing raids in Huron, SD, where there's a significant population of Karen refugees from what used to be Burma. They have a very large tightknight community there, and many of them work at the turkey processing plant there. I hate this.

This is what Kat and others were/are actively protesting while some of you sit back and criticize from the comfort of your screens.

Went to a prayer service tonight at St. Mary of the Lake, where they have cardboard cutouts throughout the church representing parishioners afraid to come to Mass because of ICE.

Someone I more or less grew up with in the cult reconnected with me today. He’s also out of the cult and recently came out as bi. After he came out as bi his son came out as gay. That generational healing was the good news I needed to hear today 🥹

The small symptoms of the past 12 months: my cuticles are trashed, my eczema is flared, I’m sleeping less, drinking more, my tummy always hurts.

You know, maybe it’s petty at this point I’m so sick of these cutesy little “it’s ICY” posts. I’m not sure what, if anything is being accomplished that way? And a total lack of details makes it nothing more than fear mongering tbh.

The thing about staying ready so you don’t have to get ready is that it is utterly exhausting

I cannot adequately express the horror it is to sit and calmly discuss the plans we need to make while hoping we never need to enact them.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

The government is rounding people up and putting them into camps and nobody is talking about it as political violence

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I’m 38 years old and last weekend I got carded at a bar and once the bartender saw my id she complimented my skin. So the world may be falling apart but i’m gonna ride that high for the rest of the year.

Prolly longer than that tbh 😆

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...
Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site
As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.
