Orange background: When A Home Is Not A Home My child is a home that keeps changing shape. When they were seven, watching the news, Seeing Brown children in cages, my child turned to me and asked if men in uniform would come take them away, take their grandma away, to somewhere they don't know and know no one, even though nothing wrong was done. I remember all the times my parents held me while they trembled with a fear they told me about but that I didn't comprehend - I was already lost to the music from the radio, books in the library, the bright boxes in the toy aisle in this America, where I was not born but was all I knew. My mom asked me what I wanted and I said I just want A safe place to raise my child and she laughed and said in Vietnamese: No place is safe. (When you become a parent everyone drives too fast Got too many guns Doesn't speak enough languages) When I am away from my child even if the distance is not as great as an ocean, or visa, or a horizon of iron bars, I feel a pain that I have no words for, β’ and words are all l have. I used to think my child changed shape because all life is trouble, but really, they change because they need to house what is inside them. I hope no one ever takes that from them, no matter what they do. This world is bigger than any one of us. Why do we keep making home smaller for one another? Born in a war, I am made of what I know and what I can't know but that weighs me down, all of it moving with me from place to place, across borders made of law, of nature, of fear, of race, of money. How many times in this life Will we stand who knows where Wondering who Will take us from home? Poetry Service Announcement - Bao Phi
Wide aerial view of people standing in a park, gathered in the shape of a Monarca butterfly. Some are holding orange cards and some black. Above that several people holding black cards, they say Love
Went to hang with the hippies of Powderhorn. Super cool human mosaic, holding cards to aerial shot .
The orange card has a beautiful poem from Bao Phi
Third pic is what it looked like from above
meanwhile, war rages on at home.
90% of evictions in MN are for nonpayment of rent. I did a sample a week ago and found the avg nonpayment eviction in Hennepin County would take $5,122 to stop. Studies (before the high inflation of the past few years) suggest stopping an eviction saves $6,832 in public costs. It just makes sense
Now is an amazing time to subscribe to this labeler

A beautiful homemade flan
One of the moms of the families Iβve been delivering groceries to asked today if Iβd be willing to accept something from her. And she came back with this beautiful flan sheβd made to say thank you for helping us. I am crying. People are too kind. This is whom our government is forcing into hiding.
Hereβs the thing: a President openly contemptuous of Congress & willing, unilaterally, to recklessly and illegally commit the US to wars of aggression is an existential threat to the Republic, *regardless* of whether he can ultimately explain his acts to Congress.
The demand must be impeachment.

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

Today is a great day to donate to the ALCU of Kansas! www.aclukansas.org
Behold: a mood
As someone who has seen Mallrats more times than I care to admit, this is a fascinating profile that has a couple twists along the way. Crazy how even mentioning the word "Scientology" to a former Scientologist provokes a Pavlovian response of hostility and near-immediate legal action.
We who are working our asses off to keep our neighbors housed and fed are making amazing things happen with mutual aid, but we shouldnβt have to be left to be doing this on our own!
Got my first "stop writing about ICE in your newsletter" email, which argued that we need to focus on food and not politics. Folks: THEY ARE INTERMINGLED. You can't declare war on the beating heart of the hospitality community without changing the food culture!!
prosecute every single ICE agent
And to be clear, everyone was very aware that this was illegal, but Trump officials and DOGE didi it anyway. Multiple IRS acting commissioners were removed when they raised concerns. Pretty much the entire C-suite resigned. From last year: donmoynihan.substack.com/p/this-tax-d...
wild that a fake industry with no purpose is destroying a number of real industries that people like and use
If you have the means, please donate to the Trans Continental Pipeline right now. They are a Colorado based org that helps trans people relocate and they are overwhelmed with requests. Colorado borders Kansas, and TCP has the infrastructure to help get people out.

These are the kinds of stories that need to get to the people who think ICE is simply being too aggressive right now, but is generally fine
As of tonight, licenses of trans people across Kansas are being invalidated en masse, enabling the overnight criminalization of an entire group of people for going about our lives. Itβs often said you never know when youβre living through history, so let me assure you: thatβs whatβs happening now.
Living in Minnesota is exhausting right now, because weβre being punished for somehow being both compassionate and successful.
I donβt even know if people who donβt live here can understand any of this.
The fact that thereβs a secret network of doulas going around Minneapolis to help with home births for parents afraid of ICE should be front-page news.
These children, born in secrecy, are American citizens.
Operation Metro Surge has successfully dismantled the US Attorney's Office in Minnesota. But it was worth it, because think of all the people they murdered, bus stops they raided, as well as children and grandmas they locked up.
The athletic reports that team USA GM bill guerin was who invited kash patel into the locker room
I think it's bad that the man, who is also the GM of the Minnesota Wild, would invite the FBI Director, who is actively part of the the federal governments coverup of two murders of Minnesotans, into the locker room to party.
With protesters calling for an eviction moratorium at Minneapolis City Hall this morning (to quote the banners): βWe fought ICE to keep our neighbors hereβ; βnow weβre fighting to keep βem in their homes.β
