Saying very loudly that you don't understand the point of protesting is announcing: how little you've done, how little you've thought to do, & how little you've attempted to learn.

In-person events of ALL kinds (workshops, vigils, skillshares, campaigns) are a 1st step to building community and +

Alternatively if you would like your funds to be redirected to the general fund or another direct fund SEND ME A DM

If I do not receive a message from you, the remainder of your donation will be set aside in our bail fund to support any future community members.

More of these funds may be utilized if our jail support team have any urgent needs throughout the remainder of their protest.

Since bail was not needed today, if you would like 86% of your funds reimbursed SEND ME A DM and I will get that back to you.

$88.48 (~14%) of our raised funds were used to purchase food, water, and electrolytes for community members that have been protesting all day and will be outside all night to support those arrested who have still not been released.

I would be proud, too. He has friends and comrades outside the building rooting for him, and we have been raising jail support + bail funds. 💙

The dog stars was excellent. It's one of those stories that has just stuck with me for a long time.

We still haven't been able to talk to our son Ethan. If you talk to him, let him know he needs to stay on the phone a long time. And thank you for your support. We're proud and very worried.

John Cornyn Houston Office Protest, Week 454, tomorrow, 10/21, 5300 Memorial Dr., 11:30-1. Trump says opposition is violent radicalism & Whitmire makes clear he will never stand up to authoritarianism. We must show up no matter lawlessness and aggression of the right for everyone to see. #Houston

For financial support, it's more than just bail, there are often missed wages and other financial needs to address. #Houston #TX #Texas #Monstrose #crosswalks #protest #demonstration #protestors #demonstrators #arrested #arrests #JailSupport #HCSO #rainbow #LGBTQIA #LGBTQ #support

Noisemakers, signs, and just general bodies are all greatly encouraged.
The goal of Jail Support is to provide not only morale for those who've been detained, but also is a way in which we ensure proper resources, community, and means of support for our comrades.

For turn out, it's usually ideal if as many able-bodied people attend as they can, and when they can, as this is a vital moment of practicing solidarity and support for our loved ones that put their well being on the line for causes.

Just to answer this definitively for the people wondering: Jail support is when we as a group, organization, or community, band together, and come out to the processing center or detainment facility where peeps are being held in support and protest of the detainment of our comrades who may have +

Release is expected around 10AM. Please let them hear you demanding their safe release! Bring water, food/snacks, smokes, cameras, change for transport home. Jail support can be done by ANYONE! Think about what you would want if this happened to YOU! maps.app.goo.gl/a7cf1LAWcvPz...

Last time we had 26,000 turn out for No Kings (1) in Houston in June. HPD CONFIRMED THIS. The Houston Chronicle reported it as 15,000 and NEVER corrected it. This time we had less, 20,000 for No Kings 2.0. The Houston Chronicle has again claimed 15,000. I guess they're very attached to that number.

Also, also, they decided to frame one of their few pathetic little NK articles as "we asked protestors if they hate america" and if they don't understand how that framing reinforces the idea that NK protestors "hate america," I don't know how to make them understand.

"Mayor Whitmire said the controversy over the crosswalks is man-made, counterproductive, and has never been an issue before. He criticized people for not recognizing his “fifty years of being the voice for equality” and shared anecdotes..." 🙄 emilytakesnotes.com/2025/10/19/1...
