Reading the highly entertaining How to be Champion by the truly lovely @sarahmillican.bsky.social. Now I find myself speaking with a bad British accent and saying things like Bugger, and Flower, and Biscuits (instead of cookies). Anything to pretend 47 isn’t my president I guess.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
