If at this point you feel there is nothing you can say or do to convince other people to take this virus seriously, know that by speaking of it, know that by taking precautions, you are reminding others the virus is still here as are those fighting it, and that is not nothing.

After living in Cook County for 15 years, I was called for jury duty on May Day which I know is supposedly coincidental but definitely felt very intentional on the part of the State’s Attorney. 🙃

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that amidst the erasure of Long COVID there’s a flooding of ads from hims, providing mail order ED & hair loss meds. ED symptoms can be an early sign of vascular, circulatory, or autonomic dysfunction yet it’s so stigmatized ppl won’t admit they experience it.

#OtD 21 Apr 1980 striking miners in Sabuk, South Korea, seized weapons and dynamite and took control of the town while demanding a 40% pay increase. They won after 3 days, but the dictatorship later reneged on its promise not to victimise participants stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9340...

People’s rights to be treated as whole humans, with dignity and care and comfort and respect should not be dependent on their ability to work, produce, or align with the ableist demands of society. This is what the vision of Disability Justice offers us.

this is not new. this is not okay. this is getting exponentially worse. this has always been bad. DHS / ICE / CPB aren’t broken systems; they’re operating as intended, with a widening scope of violence. the best time to oppose them was anytime in the past 24 years. the second best time is now.

Some good news, since we could surely use it: I just learned that a former (!!) inside pen pal through UU Prison Ministry of Illinois is now free, after his sentence was commuted and he was granted parole. Every person freed from the confines of prison is a victory towards abolition.

The UK simply does not get enough attention and hate for its roles in both spreading rampant global transphobia and ethnically cleansing Palestine.

There’s a direct line from so-called “liberal” media (CST is now owned by the local NPR affiliate) irresponsibly equating pro-Palestinian & anti-Zionist words with antisemitism and the current government’s arrests & kidnappings of pro-Palestinian student organizers.

Even the Financial Times admits that Trump is building a police state. This should give everyone a new perspective on the oh-so-controversial movement to abolish the police. That movement was our best hope of countering the forces via which autocrats like Trump will impose fascism. It still is.

A reminder on this #TaxDay that the rapid expansion of the charity sector into the nonprofit industrial complex is directly related to both the govt’s efforts to impose income taxes on the people and some of those people’s increasingly institutionalized refusal to pay them.

That there are so few mechanisms for existing systems to remove electeds from power should tell us how much permission to enact state violence is deeply embedded in the laws and history of the US. Harm that is so deeply rooted needs solutions that are as committed to locating & removing the source.

I know you aren't going to want to hear this but the reason the system can deport Mahmoud Khalil and send Kilmar Abrego Garcia to El Salvador is that for years we've been executing factually innocent people like Marcellus Williams and sending legally innocent people to places like Riker's Island.

if we're defining a constitutional crisis as a breakdown in the rule of law or the erosion of constitutional protections, then we’ve been in one for a long time (see: US prisons.) what we’re seeing now is just that breakdown becoming more visible to people who were never directly targeted before

anyone who is acting like the US and el salvadore simply accidently deported the wrong people and can’t find them is lying because they don’t want to admit they rather like that fascistic deporting of political enemies into death camps is essentially legal now
