Hey y’all.

Do you remember that incredible protest to prevent an 🧊 raid in Chinatown?

My fellow running mate, Natalia, was there.

Her scholarship has been revoked and she wants to continue her education in Social Work.

Less than $800 is needed.

Can you share/donate?

It's day TWENTY-FIVE of our national ULP strike.

You know our baristas are dedicated when they're running picket lines in these freezing temps. ⛄️ We're ready to keep fighting until Starbucks stops union busting and delivers a fair contract! #NoContractNoCoffee

I'm currently too disabled to immigrate to the United States if I wasn't already here.

Someone is chopping onions in my apartment.
We’ve reached the point in this crisis where comrades from out of state are shipping us packages of thousands of whistles to distribute.

Know that when we win here- we’ll return that favor for the next city. Just as Chicago has taught us.

We are all in this together.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

Before I got involved with fanart & making friends I really didn't think leaving compliments on stuff I liked meant anything. I assumed everyone posted and then didn't check it again. People make stuff because they love it so much it inspires them to create and they usually want to talk to people!

Okay, folks, we have an EMERGENCY kind of emergency.

Local family already having trouble making ends meet; husband was horribly injured on the job and wife is now full-time caregiver while they await a surgery date.

She's short half the rent for Monday.

This is the Sunburst Candy Spider from Thailand. Not AI (sucks to have to declare this). Very real and had been on my wish list for a long time.

The taxonomic placement is unclear, so we are leaving it at Cyrtarachninae.

So grateful to everyone in NYC who mobilized to stop the ICE raid of Canal St. The violence being committed against immigrants is heart-wrenching, but the shows of solidarity we have seen around the country give me so much hope.
