#Protest please

[rae-gar-targaryen]

ICE is in Los Angeles conducting raids and arresting families and children on their way to their court dates and raiding workplaces. Trump has called the National Guard in to stop protestors and is spreading a false narrative about violence, raiding, etc. to distract from the fact that ICE is abducting children in a SANCTUARY CITY.

Do not look away, do not be silent. If you or a loved one is detained by ICE, stay silent except to ask for your lawyer. Keep your documents on you. Call legal aid foundations who are standing by.

If you are NOT in LA and want to help, you can contact rapid response networks and ask how to help or donate. Donate to ACLU, the Mexican American Legal Defense Fund (MALDEF), or the Immigrant Defense Project.

Here are some slides with good tips to share and a list of SoCal rapid response networks:

DO NOT LOOK AWAY!

And as a not so gentle reminder, if you voted for Trump or his ilk you can unkindly get the fuck off my page. You're not welcome here.

HEY

so if you know someone who went to the LA protests today no you don't actually! All of those people have no identity. You've never been to a protest, you've never seen someone at one, and you certainly have never known the names or faces of any individuals associated with the protests.

HEY GUYS

Who wants to help ruin Trump's birthday?

Yup you heard that right. On June 14, Trump's birthday and also flag day, Trump is planning on having a pretty big military parade to be all like "I'm such a powerful king" and in response there's going to be HUNDREDS if not THOUSANDS of protests against his regime telling him to sit his ass back down.

The link below has more information and a map of currently planned protests. There's options in every single state. Even if you can't go, share this information, and consider reaching out to organizers of local protests to see if they need any logistical help. Chances are, they'll appreciate it.

Don't lose focus! Yes, the university campus protests are excellent, but remember WHY and WHAT they are protesting.

This is my baby Mohammed, one year and two months old. He was born in the midst of a horrific war. His parents fear for him and are trying to provide him with all the necessary resistance to life. So, donate via the link in our bio, or retweet or like this post.🫂🫂👇🏻🔗

Hot take: but these so-called peaceful pro Palestine protesters FAFO. These protesters were not peaceful. Following and harassing Jews on the streets is not peaceful protesting. Yelling slurs and genocidal slogans at Jews is not peaceful protesting. Beating the shit out of Jews is not peaceful protesting. Keeping Jews from entering campus buildings (and breaking into campus buildings to beat Jews up) is not peaceful protesting. Destroying Jewish shops/businesses is not peaceful protesting. Sadly the list goes on and on… these people fucked up and are hopefully facing the consequences of their actions.

Hey guys I shouldn’t be afraid to walk to work, or to my apartment, or to the store but I am. I don’t wear my kippah out on the streets (the last time I did- I was almost purposely ran over by an SUV. ) Every time I’m in the kosher section of the store I have to watch my back and make sure the food packaging hasn’t been contaminated or damaged. I dread going to certain parts of the city where the antisemitism is bad. I live and work right next to IU Indy. I have to keep a close eye on any protests that happens there or in other parts of the city- cuz these protesters will harass you and yell slurs and genocidal slogans at you. I literally had a group chant out INTIFADA at me while I was at work…The shit that I’ve dealt with (may not be as extreme as what’s happening up in NYC area) is still fucked up and no one should be dealing with it. Hell I have to be super careful at work cause some of my coworkers are openly pro Palestine (to the point where a few openly blamed Israel and Zionist Jews for all of this). And what’s sad- I can only rant and vent out my frustrations on here…

I hate when people (usually men on reddit) are like “if you met arthur back then he would murder you for breathing in his existence!” Oh would he? When? Before or after he’s finished doodling bunnies and flowers?

[noahnecromancy]

donate to families in palestine and gaza. if you can’t protest, donate. if you can’t donate, post about it. reblog posts with donation sites. do the daily clicks for gaza. doing nothing is supporting genocide.

One of the main reasons why I’m voting for Kamala Harris is because sometime within the next couple of years there will be two open seats in the Supreme Court.

Let’s not forget one of the judges that Trump appointed in his first term OVERTURNED ROE V WADE. And the old fucker BRAGS about it:

If he gets back into office, I’m sure we can all anticipate AILEEN CANNON being one of those Supreme Court justices. And if you all don’t know who she is, she threw out the case where Trump STOLE CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE:

In a nutshell, if Trump gets into office, he will appoint two younger Supreme Court justices younger than Clarence Thomas, meaning the Supreme Court will be locked HARD RIGHT for AT LEAST 30 years.

By then, that means our potential children and grandchildren (if you even want to have kids) will have LESS RIGHTS THAN US.

Do you really want that?

That’s why I feel with Kamala Harris being President, we can BALANCE OUT the courts!

Please Vote Blue.

Thank You 🙏

Self-reminders today:

Resting is an important part of creating and doing.

There is more to resting than just sleeping.

Resting means letting yourself be idle of body and idle of mind.

Resting replenishes mental and physical strengths.

There is nothing virtuous about resisting rest.

There is nothing virtuous about working without rest.

Idleness and rest are not wrong or lazy.

Allowing yourself to rest enhances your creativity and allows you to do better work.

There is nothing about resting that should make you feel guilty.

You need rest.
