Direct quote from the front desk at a Burbank hotel: “if ICE was staying here, I wouldn’t be able to divulge that… but I can confidently tell you they are not and you should keep up the good work because it’s a topic of conversation at every hotel in the city right now, so keep the pressure on.”

I did my best to compile as many protest safety notes as possible into a one page foldout zine! Coincidentally…it seems the file has breached containment…like it’s available for anyone to print or hand out 👀⚖️ toonyart.com/s/PSZine.pdf

Here's something I post from time to time. My answer to a reader who asked me: what could journalists do NOW to break with some of their more corrosive habits.

Also, as someone who worked in smartphone testings... GET A FARAWAY SHIELD BAG. Don't just turn off your phone (or worst airplane mode), isolate it. They are not cheap but it's an effective way to truly isolate your device

Idk man but when the administration that tried to reject humanitarian aid for Los Angeles when it was burning tries to justify their illegal military occupation by saying they aren’t going to let LA burn it kinda sounds like bullshit

and frankly, with absolutely no reflection on Sen. Padilla specifically, if we were less deferent and more willing to arrest politicians who HAVE committed crimes, we wouldn't be in this mess. So yes, note that this is brazen. But first say he didn't commit a crime and is not suspected of a crime.

As the government is putting up photos and rewards for protesters that they want to go after, remember that the person who called in the tip about Luigi never got paid.

Do folks remember that essay from 10 years ago by a man whose father died from a tree falling on him at an Airbnb property? It really shaped how I feel about Airbnb and other apps that just don’t take quality standards seriously.

I enjoy how Americans will post an image of a man bravely standing in front of a tank at Tiananmen every year to commemorate the wickedness of violence against protestors and then see a protester get trampled by a cop on horseback on CNN in LA and say “well what did he do wrong to deserve that?”

I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving. There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later. They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

It’s that fucking airplane meme and I’m sorry but it’s a massive blind spot among a certain kind of person on the left. You only remember the protests that “won”. It’s common for protestors to eat shit and lose both short and long term.
