Book a refundable flight or hotel in another country within the next two weeks and then book an appointment at your nearest passport agency for urgent service (same day passport). If you don't need to change a gender marker and just need to renew or change name, speed is your friend

if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.

Remember, kids! We do not talk to cops, unless we are a white US citizen and the cops are ICE showing up to look for our coworkers or neighbors, in which case we talk to la migra about their warrant VERY LOUDLY AND SLOWLY to give our community time to be Somewhere La Migra Isn't.
If you have the chance to be that big mouth on the job site. Please familiarize yourself with judicial warrant vs ice warrant/administrative documents (pdf)

Printing out and distributing a stack of red cards is another good move

You have the right to SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Things are going to heat up and we will be called to protest peacefully in the streets. But that doesn’t mean the police or National Guard will be peaceful.

So SHUT THE FUCK UP, if you get detained, etc.

This video will help remind you!
i’m gonna just watch this at least once a day and i recommend everyone do the same

I've seen a child with tetanus, I've treated near fatal infections after chicken pox, and I've pronounced children dead from COVID whose parents refused to have them vaccinated.

We have lost our minds... and are about to lose so many of our precious children.

I heard RFK Jr. is floating the banning of the polio vaccine so seems like a good time to remind folks that RFK Jr. was vaccinated with this same vaccine & therefore is at no risk of harm himself

Kinda like when he publicly was against the covid vaccine yet privately required his guests to have it🙃

The privileged don't see violence as violence unless it starts flowing the wrong way.

Please keep your newfound, highly selective, pacifism and value of human life stacked upon the bodies you didn't care about to get here.

Fuck I think we totally forgot that part in Dune Pt. 2 about not falling for charismatic violent folk heroes fueled by vengeance who look like Timothee Chalamet in a hoodie

Tears in the eyes of the both the liberated and the liberators, captive women of the Russian-backed Assad regime are set free.

When the revolution comes we need to remember it isn't the robots' fault for existing, its Management's fault for using them to replace us.

Really it isn't any different than companies using overseas or illegal labor.

A brief explanation: I've described myself as "cis-ish" in my profile bio, and I feel like I should clarify what I mean. I've been questioning my gender for quite some time now, and the only real conclusion I've been able to come to is that I am probably close enough to my ASAB that for all

I support trans people because they have been there with me since the beginning. I'm a queer person w/ many trans loved ones. Our stories & our fates are inextricably linked.

I'm actively preparing to fight censorship & resourcing to support trans folks locally & generally.

You are so loved 🏳️‍⚧️ ❤️ 🏳️‍⚧️
My guess is that a lot of trans people will be feeling a ton of stress and worry over SCOTUS today.

If you are a cis person, quote this and say why you support trans people and what you are willing to do to support us if the government comes for us.

If you're a trans person (or anyone really) who wants to update their passport or apply for a new one, there is a toolkit available on this cryptpad folder:

Say you might want a toolkit for filling out a passport application

What if that existed

I feel like most agree murder is bad, but say, hypothetically, someone has a way to murder innocent people legally, and he does it constantly for money, and the police and government won't do anything about it, and he plans on doing it for years and years until he retires. What then?

Let’s be clear here. Walsh wants to erase trans *people*. He is campaigning for a genocide of millions of people.

He is just too cowardly and dishonest to say so…
