STOP CALLING IT AN IMMIGRATION CRACKDOWN! TAKING CITIZENSHIP FROM EXTREMELY VETTED NATURALIZED CITIZENS IS NOT A CRACKDOWN! IT'S BETRAYAL.
Breaking News: The Trump administration plans to ramp up efforts to strip some naturalized Americans of their citizenship, internal documents obtained by The New York Times show, marking an aggressive new phase in President Trump’s immigration crackdown. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/17/u...

Protect yourself.
Protect others if you're able.
Protect all creatures, great and small.
Protect crumbling ruins and standing stones for elves and fairies.
Protect bogs, marshes, and misty moors for wandering witches, wayward spirits, and all of the horrors shambling in the gloom.

all day it was evening - gloom & glimmer - water pulsing powerfully, wavering & searching, overtopping ditches or flung high in HGV wallow & wash - & yet the fierce winds warm, ripping agri-wrap & testing twine securing gates: a hunker down & wait but a strange version, unwinter

Gonna be even more earnest than usual on main, but I wanted to share. Because I have a bunch of pain stuff I was in my thoughts about it, and I said to myself, “I have to show love to my body. My body is doing the best it can.” so if anybody needs this, it made me feel good to say that

The world is on fire, it is Tuesday, and I’m already counting the hours until Saturday, when I get to continue running my queer D&D campaign—whose world is also on fire, but there my players and I can tell a story about coming together to invent fire extinguishers & doing justice upon the arsonists

José's crew spent a week in August battling the Bear Gulch fire, then a 9,000-acre blaze + largest in 70+ years in WA’s Olympic Peninsula.
Border Patrol showed up to his remote forest location, surrounded the crew + ultimately arrested José + another immigrant firefighter.
"It’s backstabbing.”

I long for that place. It needs to be near the edge of the forest too so I can take cryptic walks under the new moon with books from my secret library, wearing a long skirt, a rowan crown and combat boots, gender ambiguous and fey-adjacent
Never give up.
Somewhere in the world, there's a haunted manor house on the moors with a mysterious caretaker, indifferent cats, and secret libraries within libraries, waiting for you in the darkness.

What the hell are TOUGHER abortion restrictions? Women are already dying on parking lots!?!???
UPDATE: Now that 8 Senate Dems folded to Trump—Republicans demand tougher abortion restrictions to extend Obamacare funds.

This is why you don't back down from a bully! My God! My kingdom for a spine for Democrats.

Teen Vogue covered fashion and celebrity, but also took in-depth looks at politics and social justice issues. The union representing workers at Condé Nast said six staffers are losing their jobs.

I love living in a small city. First time voting in person since Covid, everyone was lovely, also the first time in my life I’ve EVER gotten a STICKER. My night is made. (Hoping for some good news later on that will make it a lot better. GO SOCIALISM!) 🥰

The major opposing candidates called him a jihadist and Democratic leadership didn't make a peep about it!
Boy Mamdani's race is really a vivid reminder that anti-Islamic bigotry is 100% accepted in US public discourse. People don't even bother dog whistling, it's just right out in the open.

Friends! With the looming SNAP cutoff, I'm also going to do this -- send me a food bank donation receipt and I'll match up to $500.
Alright, team Bluesky: US foodbanks are about to have staggering demand when SNAP ends Nov 1st. We need to help them prepare.
I'll match donations: DM or reply with a receipt showing your own donation to a food bank of your choice, and I'll donate to match, up to a total of $500. 💪🥗🍲🥚🥧🥪🥣🥛
