That rage you feel is sacred. Honor it.
We’re in the fight of our lives and honestly we have been for some time now.
Don’t allow yourself to go numb. Don’t look away. None of this shit is normal.

Heartbreak doesn’t convey the devastation of what happened to Alex Jeffrey Pretti today. His own government killed him in cold blood.
The Senate cannot pass the DHS funding bill to allow these disgusting actions to continue.

We want to set the record so he is remembered for what he did. Alex put his body between a woman and imminent danger (murderous thugs(ICE)), and he lost his life.

His name was Alex Jeffrey Pretti. He was a 37 years old licensed nurse. He was executed in the street by ICE thugs while attempting to help a woman who had been thrown to the ground.
May he memory by a blessing 💔

I am so full of rage, disgust and heartache. This man was executed at point blank range. The evidence in the videos is much stronger than their fascist lies. What will it take for Americans to admit our own government will kill us and lie about it?
ICE out of Minnesota NOW.

I’m quoted in this piece in the @bostonglobe.com which addresses Brown’s recent capitulation to the administration- an extremely disappointing betrayal of its non-cisgender community and opponents of Israel’s war in Gaza. Not the principles I associate with my alma mater.
Students, alumni alarmed at part of Brown’s deal with Trump that adopts the administration’s definitions for gender - The Boston Globe
Brown's concessions are all the more notable on a campus where nearly 40 percent of Brown students do not identify as straight.

Stop using AI.

AI is built on STOLEN images and text.
That’s right: by using it, you’re stealing from your friends. There is NOT ethical generative AI.

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite
