Sorry to interrupt your scrolling, but may Gaza enter Ramadan peacefully. Ameen.

Language is powerful, it’s a window for others and yourself on your perceptions of the world, the value you attribute to it and people. It a reflection of how you interact and treat others. So yes, it matters. Words are never just words.

Warn everyone. Give your family, friends, and neighbors a heads up. If you SEE or suspect someone could be ICE, warn the surrounding area. Yell “La Migra”. Anything to help people get away. Thinking about all the families that will be ripped apart because of this monster…

grow a fucking spine, tiktok

the only good Tiktok ever made

Because drs have historically divested from palliative care, which is time consuming and less lucrative than performing fancy surgeries or other forms of acute-focused care. Western medicine actively discrimates against disability, because disability is seen as medical failure.

TikTok helped millions of disabled people learn about their conditions, learn how to navigate medical care and billing bullshit, and find beauty in disability culture. It also was a source of income for many. This is an enormous loss, especially for those who are homebound. 1/3

Now that I've slept on it, let's discuss the TikTok ban. The message popping up on everyone's app is propaganda, plain and simple. And having propaganda involved in something as precarious at the creator economy is very, very dangerous.

psst… I heard your person wants a locket made with their favorite flowers for valentine’s day

The ICE raids are set to begin. Having an escape plan/safety plan/bug out plan will be extremely important. The news will not provide it. We are on our own. Here is a thread on what to do and what's ahead. Please share, while we still can. And yes, it has happened here.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I inform you the people of Gaza are reporting a peaceful and quiet night.

More important than ever!!

the american descent into fascism really needs to be studied germany lost a world war, was humiliated, defanged and cut up by the treaty of versailles, and suffered an economic collapse to lead NSDAP to power what's the worst thing that happened to the US? trans people?

well that blatant display of fascism is the last damn straw for me. the account will remain up for posterity, but I'm going to try my best to redirect my doomscrolling elsewhere and deleting the app from my phone. You can find me on 🦋 under the same name.
