Please CHRIST look at the UK; Starmer’s Labour didn’t win the last election; the Conservatives lost it. The thing to do is to *BURN AWAY* Schumer, Jeffries et al through direct action, protests, primaries. You and I are in charge (sorry! but also: congrats!) Catch up with us, Dems, or be retired.

Donate to Help Kieryn Finish Their Associates Degree, organized by Kieryn Darkwater I'm Kieryn Darkwater and you may know me from the Kitchen Table Cult podca… Kieryn Darkwater needs your support for Help Kieryn Finish Their Associates Degree

I need to restart my fundraiser to cover my last class ($1361) bc the class I needed that would have fulfilled two reqs in one wasn't available. I was hoping I'd be able to cover it solo but the nebenkosten fucked me over. I will update the GFM later, but meanwhile: gofundme.com/f/makekieryn...

Do I have any trans followers from Maine who are part of organizing efforts against ICE?

I'm in MA and can travel to report on Maine happenings, but I won't unless I can connect with people on the ground who would know my work and have reason to trust that I won't exploit people or sell them out.

Californians are NOT going to vote for Gavin Newsom. They're telling you now, with YEARS to go before the election. Fair warning. Please support better candidates, there will be many to choose from.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.

And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: β€œNo, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”

Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Cannot stress enough that you can just do stuff. You don't need permission. You can just do stuff because it needs to be done by someone.

I am so exhausted because every morning for the last 9 days I've woken up feeling like I spent the night fighting bears. But I am also so antsy because I just injected 3 months worth of testosterone into my butt.

Inside me are two wolves: one begging for walkies and one desperate for a nap

Self injection #2 done. Really rude that it's impossible to find a non-transphobic endocrinologist taking patients in Berlin rn.

There's something to the way that Starmer finds his backbone when the threat is to Greenland instead of Venezuela. The something is racism.
