Trump announced that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem will be stepping down at the end of the month!

Nature break for your feed

I’m crocheting an army of cats 😂

Trans people are not a threat to anyone, but Kansas Republicans are….

I bought a vending machine and a tiny bookshelf for my tiny crochet animals. Because I’m an adult with money and no supervision.

Dark days deserve some color and joy. I crocheted some tiny friends to share. Or throw at people.

They silence the arts because they silence creativity. They want simple compliance. And in the arts we’re taught to think for ourselves and to notice everything.

Yes, we need ALL the Epstein files.

I was there. They were indiscriminately firing multiple canisters into a huge peaceful crowd. Fucking cowards

Unmarked car, no lights or police insignia. Masked armed men leap out. Victim not in the act of committing any crime. This is not how a serious federal law enforcement agency acts in a free society.

How is this not supposed to be a “right wing paramilitary force loyal to the regime”?

IL friends: I’m leaning toward Juliana Stratton for Durbin’s seat. Have I missed anything about her that might change my mind?

Playing with watercolors, trying to create some joy.

Another ICE shooting, another round of Republican buts and prayers

Non-masked MN National Guard are out handing out hot chocolate, coffee and donuts to protesters. One simple act has de-escalated the situation and helped gain the trust of people. See the difference between professional soldiers and the pretend tough guys in CBP and ICE?

I woke up to snow, so I’ll add another layer to my clothes. There’s a local gathering for Alex Pretti, and when I feel the cold I’ll remind myself that he’ll never see the snow again. Because he stood up for what is right.

As an American I welcome your boycotting. We need that message to be loud and clear.

Danger kitty

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city.

If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

Every march or protest should include signs with the date so the media can’t easily reuse old footage to lie to the public. 👏🏼

Remember when everyone was terrified TikTok would allow China to spy on Americans? Well, it looks like people were right to be worried, only they were afraid of the wrong country:

Can't believe I have to say this but climate change is responsible for extreme cold snaps.

Benadryl?

I have no words for this:

“The goalkeeper told me I’m an illegal immigrant even though I was born in America, and he said Trump was gonna get me and send me back.”

How is destroying the spirit of our children making this country great?

Who will repair their trauma when this is over?

Sickening.
