I went to my first ICE watch yesterday and was surprised by how kind and community-centered it felt.

PIRC (@pirc_oregon) runs free ICE watch training in Portland. Once trained, you’ll get text alerts so you can show up when ICE is sighted.

Sometimes just showing up is enough.

Whether it’s Barack Obama, appearing in a tan suit or Donald Trump appearing 1700 times in Jeffrey Epstein‘s emails, both presidents made some highly controversial appearances.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

How Edward Hopper “Storyboarded” His Iconic Painting Nighthawks
How Edward Hopper “Storyboarded” His Iconic Painting Nighthawks
Edward Hopper's Nighthawks (1942) doesn't just evoke a certain stripe of mid-century, after-hours, big-city American loneliness; it has more or less come to stand for the feeling itself.

The ACA made my whole self-employed life possible. For almost ten years, I was able to build a career that actually worked for me AND keep receiving necessary care to address the consequences of childhood medical neglect. And I still deserved better. We all do.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Just got an alert that ICE is showing up today in Park Slope. I have a feeling that their presence is going to grow quickly in retaliation for Mamdani’s win.

Chicagoans have learned a lot. I have to think ppl have put together good resources to post about how to effectively resist them?

I’m just a small-town political scientist, & it’s still relatively early, but it appears that The Actual Democrats did not Need To Do any of the Things or Learn any of the Obvious Lessons that Ezra Douthglesias said they Must Do & Learn.
