I should do a proper #introduction. I’m Deb. I’m a pretty average person. I’ve loved photography my entire life. I’m self taught, and I do the best I can in photography and in life. Sometimes my best is really good and sometimes it’s not and I’m learning to be OK with that. #photography #selfcare
For my own #mentalhealth I’m going to step away for a lil bit before there comes a time I cannot. #calmbeforethestorm

If you are new to living under fascism, here is your reminder. The First Amendment does not exist under authoritarian rule. Fascism survives by crushing dissent, silencing critics, and punishing speech. It always starts with you.

I was once pulled over driving to work. I hadn’t done anything. But this cop pulled me over and was, I cannot stress enough, FURIOUS. Shouting at me to not grab my phone, to not even LOOK at it, to look at HIM.

He just needed to yell and seethe at a woman.

In Renee Good’s killing, ICE’s misogyny isn’t a side note—it’s the point
The words of the man who shot Renee Good speak to the Trump administration's fixation on masculinity.

Santa Ana, CA - 1/9/26

Officers did not immediately call paramedics & instead pressed his face into a pool of blood. They mocked him, saying 'you’re going to lose your eye.'

Doctors found a piece of metal 7mm from his carotid artery, couldn't be removed because they feared it could kill him.

Today, Washington honors the transgender lives we have lost to hate-crimes and violence. Our state continues to work to be a place where every trans person can live safely and without fear. @governorferguson.bsky.social
