I just realized why high-functioning #ADHD folks make such great PMs & entrepreneurs. We spend years building systems to overcome our own executive dysfunction: frameworks, principles, data etc. Imagine climbing with boulders strapped to your waist — mastering technique is your only hope. [1/2]

Happy Obama Appreciation Day

If you’re undocumented, don’t march tomorrow. Stay home. Let the rest of us get this one. Solidarity ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼

You just stand up for people who are more in danger than you. You just do it. It could be a self-interest thing, that you realize that someday you will be the one in danger. But it’s even more important to do it if that’s never true. You just do it because humans are worth standing up for.

Cop kneeling on a woman's neck while other cops use bikes to shield him from cameras. Philadelphia, PA 6/10/25 #ICEprotests #ACAB

Why accountability matters: “Civilians have impersonated ICE agents while committing robbery (Pennsylvania), kidnappings (Florida, South Carolina), sexual assault (North Carolina) and other forms of public intimidation (Washington state, California). Opinion”

Without downloading anything, where are you mentally?

Ugh. Adulting day.

ICE is abducting US citizens out in the open to provoke a response. They're doing this on purpose to escalate and then play the victim when people protest.

Insane scenes in Downtown Los Angeles as the cops open fire indiscriminately on people milling about. The cops shattered a business’s windows while firing on a live-streaming journalist. Keep this in mind when people talk about the protesters causing property destruction. 🎥 : AXN News on YouTube

"Would you [do horrible thing] or [work for literal supervillain] for [vast amount of money]?" Buddy I get upset if I select the mean dialogue option in a video game okay? I'm built different. In the internal space meant for greed and a desire for power, there is only a tummy ache and some ADHD

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

I look forward to Stephen Miller being tried for his crimes against humanity--along with Tom Homan and Kristi Noem--and receiving the most severe penalties allowed by law.

It's been really demoralizng how much the press mindlessly repeats the lie that the National Guard was sent to quell violence. It was sent to start violence. People know this, so just say it.

Oh #Fetterman, GFY you disappointing sack of shit.

Austin TX continued to use excessive force against their civilians into the night.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — National Guard troops are now protecting ICE agents as they make arrests in LA.

I’m “I took Tylenol because I went to Costco“ years old.

ICE targets immigrants. RFK Jr targets the disabled, elderly & vulnerable. The whole regime targets marginalized people, those living in poverty and LGBTQ+ individuals. They’re targeting everyone who they’ve deemed “less than”. Everyone is expendable under fascism. It comes for all eventually.

The Trump Regime is trying to keep the news cycle from going back to Epstein, his big beautiful failed budget, exploding debt, humiliating trade negotiations in Japan/China, the dying economy, SignalGate and Gaza. The longer we fill the space with LA the happier they are.

Seems like a bunch of the ICE masked goons around LA are staying at Marriott properties. Just sent Marriott an email letting them know that as a Latina, I will not stay at any of their properties while they have ICE there. It’s a safety issue for me. Poor employees.

I know one thing. If I were a young blonde, white woman, and a police officer shot me ON CAMERA, my settlement would be large enough to have its own itemized line on LA's yearly budget.

stop letting people consume you. they didn't call? go to sleep. they didn't message you? put your phone down and have a better day. they left you on read? delete the conversation. they didn't make an effort? match their energy. never let your happiness depend on anyone

At no point in this entire article of 16 paragraphs does ABC mention that another cop killed this cop by shooting her in the back. Nor does it mention the name of the cop who killed this cop. Nor does it mention that the civilians involved never fired at them. ABC might as well be state media.

I told my wife about the accommodations national guardsmen are getting in LA and she said it’s like the Fyre Festival of troop deployments

The situation in DTLA to which 700 Marines have been deployed is a couple dozen interfaith clergypersons leading a small crowd in prayer.

LAPD when they think nobody is watching

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

If you are out walking in large vocal groups today, don’t forget to leave your phone at home, wear plain clothing with all logos and tats covered, comfortable shoes, and PPE for eyes and lungs. Also, fuck ICE, and acab.

Goldman: Both of the issues Marjorie Taylor Greene raised—were widely publicized and thoroughly debated in committee and on the House floor. If you’re publicly admitting that you didn’t know what you were voting on and now regret it—you’re not competent or qualified to serve in Congress.

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

Abolish ICE and abolish the police

Of course the LA Times makes it look like a full on riot instead of showing that the mostly peaceful protesters were literally and constantly assaulted by ICE agents. The majority of fires that were started weren’t by the public but by ICE firing into the crowds and canisters starting fires. 🧵

At the ICE raid and subsequent community resistance in Paramount, California this morning, this skater kid ate dozens of munitions from Border Patrol agents, walked away slowly and flipped them off.

At a cafe listening to live music with my emotional support knitting. 🖤

Utter bullshit.

When the worst person you know gets bitten by a snake, you don’t try to befriend the snake. You observe said biting from a considerable distance and enjoy the schadenfreude.
