I’m going to need to move by the end of October and have no real prospects or savings. I hate to ask but I have no idea what I’m even going to be able to do short-term until I have some resources saved up. Please, if you’re able, could you help with a donation?

(birthday in two days if matters 🤣)

While I have food now, I’m broke with no income and I am going to be hard pressed to come up with any money to put towards rent or anything else. I’ve just been treading water for a year.

Please, if anyone can help my payment links are in my bio. Uber credit also helps💕💸💸💕

They know why and they categorically refuse to do anything about it because to hurts their power and status.

They’re afraid they’ll be held accountable too.

I think that was more an acknowledgement that it’s not just the people on the ground that are guilty and deserve consequences?

Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.

Graham Platner for Senate @grahamformaine.bsky.social · 16h

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

Eyeballing Jack Reacher right now. Big guy, obviously, but I don't think he sees me coming. As a henchman, this is the sort of moment that makes or breaks your career. I think I should go for it.

Regardless of any other context, Israel as a national project is exactly the appropriation of others’ property and the eradication of anyone who can claim original ownership.

I don’t think anything involving Israel is funny.

If you think we don't need to look at how West Wing revisionism is used as an abusive dynamic that denies fundamental rights and causes long lasting penis envy, you are the proverbial Millennial idiot 💰

Retrospectively I can see that *Madoka Magica* and *Ghostbusters* were both early expressions of a homegrown form of no-growth that was beginning to shape and color German life...

When you have to contradict & hide the open & very sincere claims and actions of the people you’re trying to defend, it raises the question, “Why are you dishonestly defending them?”

just found out that about a week ago, while george santos has been in solitary confinement, that he wrote that due to the inhuman conditions he is facing he is now pro prison reform. just unreal stuff honestly

Twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, I paced in circles like a restless ghost.
The windows were frosted, allowing only a faint suggestion of daylight and nightfall, enough to remind me that time was passing, though I had little sense of how.
The shower water was always cold, and my only amenities were the steel toilet and sink fused together in the corner. It was a miserable existence. Yet, as I soon learned, misery can always be deepened
On September 7th, the warden's office saw fit to move me into something far worse, an even smaller cell, no more than seven by nine feet, coated in filth, reeking of neglect, and utterly devoid of natural light or ventilation.
In that suffocating shoebox, there is no room to walk, no hint of the sun, no trace of humanity. The silence is crushing.
The air feels stale. The walls themselves seem to close in. I keep asking myself: will this barbaric confinement ever end? Is this legal under our Constitution, or have I simply been erased from the protections of due process?
Most haunting of all, will I survive it? With no access to my family, no calls, no emails, and with letters that may never leave this building, I live in total darkness, cut off from the world I once fought to serve.
Let me be blunt: I find Warden Kelly's so-called "protection" not only unpalatable, but cruel and unjustifiable. My time here has opened my eyes to a truth far too many ignore: America desperately needs prison reform.
