not sure there's a more embarrassing profession than ICE agent. Oh, you dress like a soldier to abduct sous chefs and throw flashbangs at protesters? Get a real job you loser

Greetings! A large immigration operation and subsequent protest in Paramount, CA has led to a large amount of gas and “less lethal” munitions. Situation ongoing. Will update as I can.

Oh my god I have amazing news… good.store/products/soc... Not only does the money not end up with billionaires, it is currently building a hospital in Sierra Leone.

I had 7.5 use-it-or-lose-it hours so I'm taking Monday off and now I'm facing a 3-day weekend and I feel like a GENIUS!

NEW: ICE has quietly rescinded a policy requiring agents to ensure courthouse raids don't clash with state and local laws. WIRED detected the missing language in a superseding memo posted to ICE's website this week. by me and @dmehro.bsky.social:

meant to start this on Monday but I didn’t have enough material, celebratory tiktok pride thread go go go

Teenage daughter: I'm going for a walk. Me: Tell the truth. 🧐 TD: ... TD: 😒 TD: ... TD: 🙄 TD: ... TD: 😏 I'm going outside to play Pikmin Blooms.

The 5th-graders are at camp, so I let the 4th-graders sit in the last 2 rows of the bus and it's like I'm a powerful genie who made all their dreams come true 😍😆

I received Notification of Reasonable Assurance that I will have a job in the fall, so that's good.

Only queer books this month! Starting with:

The Black Alumni Association of Dartmouth's email was suspended by the college after they shared this message of concern over the treatment of student protesters. As a result, they asked us to share their message widely. dartmouth.imodules.com/controls/ema...

One of my jobs in my house is leftover-eater. I now hate meal planning/prep, so I'm happy to eat whatever's leftover in the fridge if it means it's readily available. I'm eating a bowl of leftover brown rice, BBQed chicken, and corn for lunch. 🤷 I used to make fancy meals and then I had kids.

if you represent or work for a hospital who gets investigated by the FBI, i want to talk to you. my signal is in my bio.

Celebrating the first day of Pride on the school bus repping queer icons Marceline the Vampire Queen and Princess Bubblegum. #AdventureTime

"The hallways...were absolutely lined with ICE agents. And immigrants were scared to leave, even though their cases were still open. What happened was that ICE agents then stormed into the courtroom, kicked out the attorneys, and detained everyone in the courtroom over the judge's objections."

One of my absolute favs!

If you haven't read this yet, today is your lucky day! Genuinely jealous of all the people about to read it for the first time 🥰

I'm in a knitting slump.😕 I can't find a next knit that interests me. And since I'm autistic and knitting is my stim, I'm feeling(?) disregulated.

The most subtle look from MY Pride line is this black shirt with a motif of small pink triangles. Everything else is a lot more explicit. And buying from me means queer money stays in queer pockets. Target doesn't deserve it. (rosalarian.com/shop)

Don't forget, it's Murderbot Night.

My elementary run yesterday afternoon was a lot. The kinders had just returned from their first ever field trip to the children's museum and the 5th-graders just had sex ed. Bus vibes were bonkers! Fingers crossed for a chill day today. #SchoolBus

Scoop: Texas police used Flock's license plate cameras to search *nationwide* for a woman who had a self-managed abortion. Claim it was "about her safety" www.404media.co/a-texas-cop-...

THE POTENCY OF UNGOVERNABLE IMPULSES comes out JUNE 10, which is however many days from now, in any case NOT MANY! It's getting fantastic reviews and is longer than the first two Mossa and Pleiti books, pre-order now!

Some of my sparkly girls on my elementary run have been *activated* by this. #SchoolBud

Had a guy fully lean out and flip me off when I put on my reds this morning. Guess he thought I'd wait until he'd passed even tho I'd had my ambers on for at least 200' before I stopped. I'm just trying to safely load 6 yr old Penelope, GARY SORRY YOU WERE INCONVENIENCED FOR 15 SECS #SchoolBus

BOOOOOOOO! 👎👎 "...this isn't any different from a Jan 6 situation" are you fucking kidding me?? If you live in NZ please follow this person around and hiss whenever they talk

It's just graft on graft. Graft all the way down. Just when you think you've reached the bottom, what do you find? More graft!

I just did this and it was very soothing.

I'm home sick with Coxsackie virus. I'm feeling terrible and very sorry for myself. 😞 Working on a Scourie slouch hat (by Woolly Wormhead). I find knitting these sideways hats very soothing. Need to build up my supply of hats, mitts, and cowls for the next school year. 🧶
