Governor Janet Mills of Maine should be a model to every Democratic governor and lawmaker out there, right now. www.maine.gov/governor/mil...

Stop calling the 24 year old coup-ers "teenagers" and "children." You infantilizing these neo-Nazis is not harming them. It is part of white supremacy, you are participating in their ideology when you do this. The other side of the coin is Black child victims of violence get called adults. Stop.

If you or your mutual aid group want to get some of that federal stockpile of COVID tests, you can order them for free. Minimum is 300, unclear what the max is! my local clean air group just did this and they arrived quickly: docs.google.com/document/u/0...

THE RESIST LIST IS HERE. Proud my team just started this @resistlist.bsky.social, which will list actions that happened and that are slated to happen.

Executive orders are not laws. The Center for the Defense of Academic Freedom has started Executive Power Watch, which includes breakdowns of Trump's EOs on education, what they do and don't mean ,and how to resist. More at the link: academicfreedomontheline.substack.com/p/how-should...

Immigrant Justice Now! | 2025 Action and Study Guide Join the Catalyst Project to take action in solidarity with immigrants, with a new study and action guide to support non-migrants to take powerful strategic action in solidarity with migrant and immigrant communities.

This thread is so insightful and so important and if your not disabled or chronically ill, it may be hard to read because it may feel like someone is telling you that you are leaving people out. And maybe sit with that and with the words in this thread because we matter and we need you to know that.

So when it comes to "grow community locally" stuff, here's something non-Disabled folks especially have to figure out how to counter. There is a long-standing pattern where chronically ill people, even those who previously had extensive support networks and community, are abandoned and isolated.

Join us on this Saturday at Weeksville Heritage Center for a panel discussion about the impacts of criminalization AND a tabling event with local organizations that you can connect with to support/get involved. www.eventbrite.com/e/torchlight...

This event will have a recording available after the event if you register for a ticket. There's a free option available for low income folks.

Today! (02.17) Noon-1pm EST! Sign up ⬇️

OK hear me out: animal crossing gets a library where you can actually download e-books

Wherever possible please buy your books directly from authors and/or publishers. Even ebooks (then Amazon can't delete them either). We make a better cut and you get the same thing or better, plus Bezos and ilk don't get richer. Win win win.

If you are in Alabama or any of the other states participating in this disgusting lawsuit to remove section 504, please contact your state AG. Removal would open the door for discrimination against individuals with any disability needing accommodations in education. dredf.org/protect-504/

JUST IN: Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences. Farmers have a right to protest, and the police respect it. Other people, it seems, not so much. The real #TwoTierPolicing www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

DREDF has a clear explainer and also clear action steps you can take.

this looks great!

Yes. “People are doing things. You will meet them when YOU start doing things.” Lots of information and resources in this one. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

I know there's been years of disinfo downplaying the flu in order to dismiss COVID as a threat, but both things cause serious illness and are best avoided. This flu wave is no joke. It's a good idea to get this season's flu vaccine (it's not too late), and wear a well-fitting mask like an N95.

UK disability charity Scope have put together an urgent letter to the government warning them against cutting disability benefits. Sign here: campaigns.scope.org.uk/page/165720/...
