If I keep the same plan, it goes up $203 to $850 a month. I can’t go without health insurance, cancer, ongoing meds, mental health everything- I don’t know how any of us are going to survive. It’s so fucking bleak.
So every freelancer you know is going to lose their insurance or be bankrupted by premiums because Schumer is an invertebrate

My latest is a love letter to Chicago. "I see you stumbling through the stubborn, awkward rhythm of showing up, again and again. I see you fighting alongside people who sometimes frustrate and confuse you, and defending neighbors you may have never met, because you know they’re all your people."
In Chicago, We Run Toward Danger Together
"Faced with unrelenting state violence, Chicagoans have refused to be cowed," says Mariame Kaba.

A daycare. Every day in Chicago. The state is not stopping this. Pritzker’s and Johnson’s cops have ONLY been protecting these assaults so there is so far nothing that is stopping them besides unarmed residents screaming. How many children are technically orphans now @govpritzker.illinois.gov?

I have generally been heartened by Pritzker's rhetoric, but we need more right now than him telling us to keep filming ICE. People have been detained for doing that. People across Chicagoland have been brave, and we need brave leadership. We need more of a plan than urging individual action.
