#Stand With Immigrants

Also, a lot of what he's trying to do, and asking Federal employees to do, is flatly illegal anyway. He won't pay any price for breaking the law- but you might if you obey.

hey psstt if you're a government worker, know a government worker, etc in the US- make sure you know when to NOT comply.

if the Tyrant in Chief is already threatening to slash your office staff in half AND wants you to commit acts of transphobia. Just...don't.

Process that application, approve that loan. these tiny acts of rebellion are going to be what keeps us alive in these times.

don't make it easy for them. don't comply.

ATTENTION: ICE Raids.

The only thing I'd question is the assumption that the sheriff won't actually be charged. There's no legally valid charge, sure- but its pretty clear that as far as the current regime is concerned, the law is whatever they say it is- and SCOTUS gave Der Fuhrer immunity.

Read this article. Then vote accordingly.

The United States was founded on open borders.

First they went after public health.

Then they went after trans care.

Now they are going after basic medical services.

The city has received national attention since Monday when it was maliciously distorted by false rumors that Haitian immigrants are eating their neighbors' pets.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Two separate hospitals in Springfield, Ohio were placed under a brief lockdown Saturday morning after receiving bomb threats.

Security members at Kettering Health Springfield were notified of a bomb threat at approximately 6:50 a.m. and locked down the facility. Officers with the Springfield Police Department were then called in to search the premises with the security team.

Have been seeing some discussion again about tamlin being a good High Lord or not and I just have to remind everyone of one of the best little facts from acotar I never really seen mentioned.

Acotar, Chapter 25 Page 221

She [Alis] simply said, "Summer Solstice. The main celebration used to be at the Summer Court, but... Things are different. So now we have one here, too. You're going."

"so now we have one here too..." Because of amarantha and Tamlin being just a good person he allowed anyfae from any court to come to spring. And because no one could really go back to their courts for their respective solstice celebrations, Tamlin made sure Spring Celebrated all of them

I just think that's such a cool fucking thing. That Tamlin cared for the people coming to spring for safety, and he made changes to help everyone feel comfortable and at home. He cares about the people who live in Spring, he cares so damn much :(((

I don’t mean to rain on anyone’s parade but there’s something terribly disheartening hearing about gender markers on American citizen passports getting rushed out the night before the swearing-in, when the only thing I’ve gotten since election results were announced is double the wait time on my green card. Just very telling of who is An American worthy of prioritizing and who is an outsider

[aspiringbelle]

That man is a hero. He is fighting for the ideals America was founded on.

Do you have anything you've been thinking on but just haven't made a post about it yet? Also I'm really enjoying your fic!

I have a few things but it's likely mostly headcanons that I consider somewhat disconnected from my analysis.

Curly's parents had him old, only child, died shortly after he graduated and got the pony express position. It was the last big thing they saw him do which is a reason he stayed for so long.

Doesn't admit how much their death affected him

Jimmy has a largish family. One of the cases of too many kids to keep tract of, parent never really noticed any of them nor their behaviors

Anya lived in a lot of houses growing up, regular supportive family that just struggled to support themselves.

Became a nurse largely to avoid their financial struggles but mostly because she felt too many people weren't being cared for and advocated for in the world properly

Swansea likes high top sneakers most. Likes how snug they fit and how they shield his ankles at work

Curly has a bit of a caffeine problem since he can’t sleep. Can occasionally be found wandering the ship at “night” when he had some too late or just couldn’t sleep.

Daisuke knows a little about a lot of things. Starts conversations with “did you know” a lot but please don’t ask him deeper questions

Curly has known Jimmy longer but has worked with Anya and Swansea longer, met them during his middle years, met Jimmy shortly before college.

Swansea rents a house, Daisuke’s family lives in a big nice apartment, Curly has a condo, Anya live in a small one bedroom apartment and Jimmy has a studio.

Curly's home is very disconcerting. It's too normal to a like uncanny degree.

Anya is ambidextrous but prefers her left.

Anya and Curly are both not native English speakers so occasionally they forget words and bond over the mutual mocking they get from the rest of the crew. Daisuke knows some Japanese but is still learning, never picked it up as a kid

Only Swansea and Daisuke know how to drive, Earth in my mind is very post capitalist so only older people and like the extremely wealthy can afford cars.

It's also like walkable just due to how many businesses are in your face. Probably strict living vs shopping districts

I have more but the way that I headcanon about them is like too long.

“ICE Watch in Alamance County, 2017. Our dispatch team sent a trained volunteer to check out reports of a suspicious vehicle with tinted windows. Normally, they end up having a friendly conversation with someone visiting a friend. Instead, the volunteer started broadcasting live to Facebook, and our dispatcher shared the feed with people in the neighborhood. #defendandrecruit

Normalmente, terminan teniendo una conversación amistosa con alguien que está visitando a una amistad.

Who the fuck were Lila's family? Her backstory in season 2 was that her parents are brits, but in this timeline she just has like 3 or 4 random american aunties and uncles and it's never explained? We're just expected to accept that she has this gaggle of family who are ready to babysit her plot device children.

And why are her and Allison the only one's who get other family members? it doesn't make sense and it feels like we were so cheated out of seeing the Hargreeves sruggle to fit in with whatever nuclear family dynamic this new timeline dumped them in

[hairtusk]

not sure there has ever been a worse time to be a woman or girl in the uk. random stabbing attacks, crimes on trains increased by 50% in the last few years, 50 women murdered by men since the start of the year ... and absolutely no urgency whatsoever. it's terrifying.

They laugh at our tears and see us as weak. They believe themselves the heroes. They think they’re brave.

We rebuke them.

We rebuke them for our tears are born from love, and they’re braver than the laughter of their hate.

We love our LGBTQIA+ family and will fight to protect their rights. We will continue to shout Black Lives Matter for we love and will protect our black brothers, sisters, and people. We love and will protect both legal and illegal immigrants for we know they’re people just like us, and are the true workers who built this nation. We love and will protect the Trans community, adults and children alike. We love women and we will fight for their rights to their own bodies, and we will protect them from the evil of men.

For our tears are brave. We know what’s coming. We will be the wall the Trump administration wants to build and we will protect our family and friends. And we will do so with our fists held high.

We will have tears in our eyes, yes. Our kindness holds no shelter for the weakness of hate.

For our tears are brave.
