30 for 30: Protest Songs Day 4. Coal War Joshua James, 2008
If we don't walk free with hand in heart, it's time
If we cannot see all we destroy, we're blind

30 for 30: Protest Songs Day 3. Green Day, American Idiot, 2004
Well, maybe I'm the faggot, America
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda
Now everybody, do the propaganda
And sing along to the age of paranoia

This evening about a dozen neighbors and my family were at a vigil on a corner in our neighborhood. We were there, holding signs, in front of the local Veterans Memorial, in support of those who were too frightened to be seen. Probably 90-95% of the cars honked in support, raised thumbs and peace signs, and even just yelled HONK HONK HONK when their horns wouldn't work. Bus drivers, tow truck drivers, delivery drivers. People in low riders and luxury cars. We even got a discreet nod from the local LAPD cruiser.
The point is that sometimes, when you feel like everything you have to give is less than a drop in a bucket, you can still give someone the ability to honk a horn in support, knowing that this is all we have the power to do today, but at least we know we are all here.
We are trans teens and military vets. We are naturalized citizens. We are gay and straight, black, white, brown, and everything in between, native born Angelenos and transplants. We are community, and that is our superpower.
The biggest hat tip to my neighbor John E., who keeps the vigil even if it's just him shouting on a street corner. #chingalamigra #noice #highlandpark

MAGA in-laws sent us a thank-you card for our Father's Day gift.
The card is from the US Holocaust Museum. The back of the card says, "The watercolor featured on this note card was painted by Jacob Barosin while he was in hiding in France during the Holocaust."
Last Wednesday, I was glad to see so many #NoICE protesters wearing respirators.
As for me, my #fibromyalgia / #LongCOVID has made it such that I'm still recovering from that protest.
Comrades, keep yourselves and your communities healthy and mask up. It's awfully convenient for the fascists when we become disabled by #COVID.
They're basically cargo culting whatever gives them the momentary appearance of legitimacy and abandoning it in the next.
Their words don't MEAN anything. Literally gibberish. It's your pareidolia that makes you think there's a pattern, but on actual analysis, there is no substance there.
Just, "me me me fuck you got mine."
People who choose that path are unfit to govern a society of people, plural.
It's only gonna get messier until we jam on the brakes.
A cop impersonator just assassinated elected officials, and ICE thinks it's okay to run around without uniforms or badges, waving rifles?
Their fellow cops ought to be throwing ICE under the bus right now, because it has two consequences for a rational person:
a) an non-uniformed person can never be treated as a legitimate law enforcement officer (c.f. impersonation/political assassination) because that's a fatal risk,
b) a uniformed person might be an imposter, also fatal.
Officers who cover their faces could be charged with a misdemeanor under California proposal

@randahl Oh, Trump regime politics are significantly effective. They're accomplishing exactly what they're designed to accomplish.
Had such a Pawsome #NoKings Day in #Chicagoland. Added a bit diversity with my hood, harness and boots. Made some new friends including some cis doggos.
The best part was how I helped three people with mobility challenges so T/they could join the demonstration: my slavebear, my Handler, and Their Domme. It was particularly profound when I felt Sir’s cramping legs gradually calmed down as I massaged them. Very fulfilling as a service animal! #pupplay #ponyplay #lgbtq+ #NoICE
