A cishet white male comptroller and mayoral candidate for the largest city in the country. Truly no individual is safe. Individuals can’t stop ICE…. but large crowds can. Many large crowds have chased them away.

Think I may be getting to a place where I can craft a world and G/DM something a little more long-form again. Life really does change when you focus on your healing.

Toomaj, the famous Iranian rapper and freedom fighter who has been one of the biggest targets of the Islamic regime, has posted this statement. Toomaj has been out of prison for the past few years and has sacrificed a great deal fighting for freedom.

Well, that didn't last long. DHS told staff it was reversing guidance issued last week that agents were not to conduct immigration raids at farms, hotels and restaurants. Shadow President Stephen Miller wins again. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

First day of my second sober journey (alcohol). Had a hard time this last month and realized it was time. I don’t think I’ll have any symptoms because I wasn’t using hardcore but it’s the temptation I’ll need strength for. Send it my way. Thank you 🤍
