An important thing to remember about the gravy basket, is that when you're feeling most alone, there's some loud, obnoxious pirate directly behind you scooping water out with a tapas plate. An OFMD mutual aid bluesky for those who want to feel a little less at sea.

Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

We still have to pay our mortgage and HOA dues on top of rent and utilities, at least til the house is completed and can be sold, which should be about June or July.

My husband and I lost our home in a house fire a little over two months ago. We're still trying to recover, and we have to rent an apartment while still paying our mortgage while our house gets rebuilt which could take two years.

Hate doing this because I know everyone is struggling but on top of my washing machine leaking, I get home from the funeral to find my front door won't lock properly so now I need to call someone out to deal with that. I don't have an emergency repairs fund to cover everything

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.
