I'm Amy and I paint celestial pottery with glaze ✨

This started when I wanted to take us on an adventure during the pandemic lockdown. Now, offering pots like these to be part of your daily life feels like another way to keep hope alive.

"ICE shouldn't use full body restraints"
"ICE shouldn't use teargas"
"ICE shouldn't break into homes without warrants"

ICE shouldn't exist. We don't have to split hairs, energy, and resources. Its a private military that circumvents limitations on deploying military force on citizens.

Al Jazeera is doing videos of the Palestinian releases and they're heart wrenching. One man was detained for over a year and was released to find out that Israel had killed his two kids. The youngest was three. Her birthday would've been on Saturday. He'd made a small bracelet for her in prison.

The @chicago.suntimes.com photographer who risked their personal health and safety to take this photograph is Anthony Vazquez. Please credit photographers and media outlets. In this age of misinformation, a photo with no context could be anything at all.

Please remind us who the domestic terrorists are again.

This is pretty darn awesome of it works! It’s only one of MANY things they have to match with organs, but it’s a big one!

This is huge news!
UBC has developed an enzyme that can convert donor organs to type O, making them universal.
Normally a using organs of the wrong blood type causes the recipient's immune system to attack the organ, leading to failure.

It feels like such a slap in the face to sex workers and nsfw artists who are actively being censored by payment processors atm. Of course visa/mc are ok with this because its a rich white guy doing it AND they get access to all that VERY PROFITABLE PII. Disgusting.

What do more than 230 scientists and 53 ocean conservation organizations have in common? They just told the Trump administration to protect our marine national monuments. Read more about our work to protect our monuments from industrial fishing: tinyurl.com/4d9xaa6e

They also said the Trump administration has not used a transparent process for getting input from the public.

ICE AGENTS KILL DOG
DURING UNLAWFUL SEARCH, REFUSE TO RENDER AID, AND LEAVE WITHOUT IDENTIFYING THEMSELVES weratedogs This is Chop. He was shot and killed by masked assailants in plain clothes who go by ICE.
Unsurprisingly, they did not care enough to help the family as they tried to save him. Even more unsurprising, they did not find any evidence of the migrants they were there to terrorize in the first place.
Do not open your door for these fucking losers. Rest easy Chop

The Israelis inform the families of Palestinian prisoners at the last moment that their loved ones won't be released but instead exiled www.instagram.com/p/DPwIHM3At4Q/

هكذا تتلاعب سلطات الاحتلال نفسياً بعوائل الأسرى الفلسطينيّين، فتخبرهم باللحظة الأخيرة أنّ أبناءهم سيكونون من المُبعَدين إلى خارج #فلسطين، بعد تبليغهم في المرّة الأولى أنّهم سيعودون إلى منازلهم في #الضفّة_الغربية. هذا هو الحال مع الأسير محمد عمران وهو من بلدة الخليل في جنوب الضفّة، وعائلته التي صُعقَت بالخبر فيما كانت تنتظره في رام الله. يُذكَر أنّ عمران محكوم بـ13 مؤبّد، أمضى منها 25 عامًا في السجن.-This is how the occupation authorities psychologically manipulate the families of Palestinian prisoners: they inform the families at the last moment that their sons will be exiled outside #Palestine after initially telling them that the prisoners would return home to the #WestBank. This was the case for Muhammad Imran, a prisoner from al-Khalil (Hebron) in the southern West Bank. His family was shocked by the news while waiting for him in Ramallah. Imran has been sentenced to 13 life terms and has served 25 years in prison.

Yeah I’d go with Gagnam Style with possibly Despacito as a runner up (I don’t know how well it penetrated Asian billboards)
