We're currently assembling packets containing a whistle and the instructions (quick blasts for ICE spotted, long for ICE detaining someone.) Here's what we're using. (Thanks to Pilsen Arts & Community House for the flyer design in English and Spanish)

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.
FORM A CROWD STAY LOUD PROTECT EACH OTHER CODE I: ICE NEARBY BLOW QUICKLY IN A BROKEN RHYTHM: PRE-PRE-PRE! → ALERTS THE COMMUNITY THAT ICE AGENTS ARE IN THE AREA. ROGERS PARK WHISTLE PROTOCOLS WHY A WHISTLE? ON THE STREETS • A SIMPLE TOOL FOR FAST ALERTS. • LOUD. RECOGNIZABLE. IMPOSSIBLE TO IGNORE. • OUR VOICES ARE STRONGER TOGETHER. WHISTLES GUIDE PEOPLE TO: • FOLLOW ICE CARAVANS • CATCH UP WITH THE CROWD • ALERT NEIGHBORS TO JOIN IN NOISE = VISIBILITY. CODE 2: CODE RED BLOW THREE LONG BLASTS: PREEEE-PREEEE-PREEEE! → ICE IS DETAINING SOMEONE. FORM A CROWD, STAY LOUD. DON'T STAY SILENT. STAY NONVIOLENT. WHY IT WORKS • INSTANT ALERT SYSTEM • FASTER THAN SOCIAL MEDIA • TURNS SILENCE INTO COMMUNITY ACTION ORIGINAL FLYER CREATED BY: WHAT YOU CAN DO • WEAR YOUR WHISTLE AROUND YOUR NECK TEACH FAMILY EIGHBORS TH CODES • USE IT WHEN ICE IS SPOTTED • PROTECT EACH OTHER, ALWAYS TOGETHER, WE KEEP OUR COMMUNITY SAFE. FORM A CROWD, STAY LOUD. THIS FLYER DISTRIBUTED BY: PROTECT RP • @PROTECTRP_

No one knows how many people ICE has kidnapped, how many have been shipped overseas or how many are still detained. Many have no contact with family or any lawyers, and no one who knows them knows where they are. Many are being held indefinitely in facilities that refuse oversight

According to Goldman Sachs, 88% of US tariffs are being paid by American companies and consumers. Only 9% are being paid by foreign exporters.

This morning I was filming ICE abducting sometime in Petworth. One of the agents told me "the last US citizen that did this he put in cuffs all the way to the courtroom".

Watching people being brutalized by the state, secure in the knowledge that I'm safe because I don't do anything wrong. And the best part? The state can't suddenly and arbitrarily redefine what "wrong" means

the most maddening interaction i have with other developers is where i show them an error and explain the context, then spend the next 20 minutes answering vague, high-level questions that eventually result in my being asked to provide the error and explain the context

Me, fall 2024: mushroom hunting + hiking in our beloved Oregon forests, knitting by the fire at night.

Me, fall 2025: buying gas mask filters, "stop the bleed " kits, and a faraday phone bag bc fuck the violent Gestapo ICE fucks in our beloved city.

I can hardly believe how much has changed.

What would it look like for a bunch of jetski dealer jihadists to secure the monopoly over the legitimate use of force while they rewrite your kid's textbooks to show Jesus invented dinosaurs with the help of Prime energy? I dunno man ask Florida and stop thinking they're backwards. They're ahead!

"You're not resisting correctly unless you are willing to destroy your entire life and risk your family's safety" isn't good faith. You don't get to volunteer other people for jeopardy.

Everything we are suffering from is volitional.

Our entire population could be housed, fed, & have health care.

We could be meaningfully combating the climate crisis.

Instead we are zip-tying children, immolating our vaccine system, & doing everything to protect a child rapist.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited.

It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

A lot of women need to de-center men from their lives. I will say it again, de-center them. You keep losing yourself trying to build with men who bring nothing but confusion and chaos. A man with nothing will drain everything you have built.
