@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.
This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

The Trump administration is continuing to freeze FEMA funds to states.
These funds are used to prepare for disasters and recover after wildfires, floods, and other emergencies.
I'm seeking a court order to force the administration to unfreeze FEMA funds and keep people safe.

We already had that, Mark. It was called the library. Then tech billionaires voted for people who closed them down and tried to convince us a technology based on theft and using up huge quantities of water and power while driving up prices of other tech was better. Give me libraries back any day.

Very interesting thread
Part 1:
He’s not that deep. 😂
So the quote comes from the movie WATERLOO. And it’s timely as Trump (known as UXD thus forth) is battling with judges over his numerous illegal EOs.
But I think it’s a dog whistle, only heard by those in the know.
Why? Bear with me.

If you haven’t called or written to your reps about SOMETHING just fucking start today. Even if your rep is republican, it’s important to let them know youre not just along for the ride.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have developed a nasal COVID-19 vaccine that BLOCKS transmission of the virus. This suggests vaccines delivered directly to the nose or mouth could play a CRITICAL role in containing the spread of respiratory infections. Phase I clinical trials HAVE BEEN APPROVED! 🧪🧵⬇️
