i dont use the term DEI because it is bullshit. It’s a cover. We are seeing MASS FIRINGS of Black people and POC to propel us back to the Jim Crow apartheid era of this country.

Abortion = healthcare. Period.

Illinois handled 25% of ALL out-of-state abortions last year. That’s 35,000+ people crossing state lines just to get care. The Chicago Abortion Fund fielded 16,000+ calls and no one was turned away. That's holding the line.

The thing about chronic illness/painnis that I know ive been in this kind of pain or worse before but this is still the worst pain and I’m terrified it will never end because obviously even when it does end it doesn’t because I am in that terrible pain again it doesn’t really end. It pauses.

Malcolm’s Razor: when the discourse around a Black creator’s creation makes no sense and/or is contradictory, it’s not complicated. IT’S SYSTEMIC RACISM.

Killing of millions of brown and Black people, millions of disabled people, is the goal. At its heart this administration perceives all of these lives as not worth saving, not worth living.

Today at least two judges were arrested for acts that are not criminally illegal and a two year old U.S. citizen was kidnapped and shipped to Honduras by ICE, who called it a "deportation." Are we great again yet?

By the way this isn't an obscure act; it was the one used to justify the incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII, the one never overturned by the Supreme Court or US District Court, even when Fred Korematsu's case was appealed in the 1980s.
