We can stop reading the NYT and WaPo any time and support independent journalism instead.

It will be easy to fall into a pattern of dunking & reacting in these times. Performing disapproval can be a consuming pastime & it is not enough. Refuse to abandon vulnerable people. Build a rebellious culture of care. If you need help, @prisonculture.bsky.social and I wrote a book to assist you.

ICE is planning immigration raids starting Tuesday. Please amplify.

The Eaton fires destroyed a youth care facility my friend worked at. They had no time to pack, and everything is lost. Please help support them if you can. These children and teen were ALREADY vulnerable before the fires. www.gofundme.com/f/provide-ai...

If a whale bit my leg, I would simply pursue him relentlessly until my obsessive hatred became my undoing

Thanks I’m doing fine aside from this scented trash bag that’s trying to poison me
