If there are mutual aid groups in your area, highly recommend finding out specific ways you can help. I shop every other week for a free fridge in my area, I love helping my neighbors in a tangible way.

MA groups always need funds, so consider supporting them with recurring donations too.
something from minnesota that i would like people to learn, that i don’t think is hitting people yet:

helping MN is good. people need it. but people in your community need mutual aid too. care. resources. food. outside of times of crisis.

and you can help.

So I realize that stopping fascism is #1 on the menu, but we must push HARD for Medicare for All.

Our taxes should be for the health and common welfare of the people. Prevention is the best cure.

We don't need another billion dollar bomber. We need billion dollar healthcare.

We need to reclaim the term "welfare." It's one of many words that the US right has poisoned, but truly, it's necessary.

In Dr. Valerie Wilson, we trust.

TLDR: The job losses among Black women in 2025 were mostly driven by federal layoffs and buyouts. While there were gains in some private industries, Black women saw net job losses in 6 out of the 12 MAJOR private sector industries.

ICE raids are traumatizing public school communities across the U.S., leaving some children stranded without caregivers after school and turning abductions by immigration agents into shocks that ripple through entire classrooms and campuses.

You deserve access to abortion care if you are pregnant and do not want to be. Full stop.

Your reasons are your reasons and they are good enough.

Abortion is healthcare and everyone deserves healthcare access.
You don’t need a traumatic or tragic story to deserve abortion care.

Trans ideology or gender ideology are not a real thing.

These are transphobic and homophobic dog whistles.

If you see anyone using these phrases. Confront them, especially if you’re cis gendered and straight.

Being trans is not a problem. It’s not a mental illness, nor is it something to be ashamed of.

Transphobia is real, it gets people killed. The hateful rhetoric coming from Canadians is absolutely abhorrent, Canadians have a problem with homophobia, transphobia and racism that yall do

Super Bowl viewers Sunday speculated that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos appeared in the halftime show. In fact, he has been in hiding with his family.

Columbia will never be free of this stain.
When Texas lawmakers tried to visit 33-year-old “political prisoner” Leqaa Kordia at an ICE facility, she’d already lost 50 pounds and was running a high fever.

By Friday, she was hospitalized. But her family still has not been able to locate her.
