All my favorite things: riso! zine! resisting surveillance! independent media! melt ICE!
404 Media is making a print zine about the surveillance tactics used by ICE, and how people are resisting this tech.

Why? Print media is cool. Also, 404 Media has watched ICE grow from an already horrifying organization into a deportation force that is better funded than most militaries.

This is a gift. Thank you to @siembranc.bsky.social for sharing this new toolkit with what they did when Border Patrol showed up in NC: docs.google.com/document/d/1... - share far and wide especially with our comrades in MN and LA (New Orleans esp).
Toolkit: how we dealt with Border Patrol
In November 2025, Border Patrol announced it would be coming to Charlotte, North Carolina. We only had a few days’ notice. Just like in Chicago and Los Angeles, they weren’t coming to “keep the peace....

Best reference desk drop in question: "Is there roof access to the library? Because there are 2 birds of prey on top of the chapel and I wanted to get a closer view to photograph them." (Person is carrying massive telephoto lens camera.)

I just want to know that I read this as gender-affirming cake, and I think that’s also important. Gonna make sure 16 has both care and cake.
Gender-affirming care saves lives
1. A landmark study was just published in The Journal of Pediatrics.

It found a 68% reduction in suicidality for trans youth getting HRT.

It also found only 7 of more than 400 stopped taking HRT... and of those that did, 4 still identified as gender-diverse.

Transgender care saves lives.

My thanks to all who have been engaging w/ this 🧵 about retrieving the work of the ♀️ healer Trota out of this (itself digitally retrieved) medical manuscript from the 12th century. Here's a mini-🧵 w/ some follow-up info, the kind of connections that come from shared expertise. #WomensHealth #histmed
Oh wow! This is what happens when you're photographing MSS & don't capture the text in the inner gutter. 1st, here's the photograph (made about 100 yrs ago) of the Codex Salernitanus, f. 82ra. Although that big tear of the page is obvious, the inner gutter hasn't been fully captured in the photo.

One thing is clear: ICE has no idea what WTF they're doing. There is no plan or strategy beyond racist thuggery. Which means it's very easy for us to dissuade them. Let's make North Carolina a huge pain in Trump's ass, y'all.

The rapid, grassroots response my community demonstrated for our neighbors is why we're going to win. My patrol area was relatively small but there were a couple dozen folks who showed up in the middle of the day on Tuesday to keep others safe.
Tonight, as the sun set in Durham, while hundreds more joined patrols in Charlotte, courageous local officials, people of faith, and community leaders gathered to say: Enough is enough.
