54, leftist democrat of Gen X, academic, edtech nerd, and relapsing TTRPG fan. Throw in movies from most eras of film and the occasional 80s hairband guitar ballad. Mix thoroughly and pour over ice because most days everything hurts. Abolish ICE! Impeach!

Bread and circuses, but without the bread, is the stage of Roman decline we are currently experiencing. Ruled by a mix of Caligula and Commodus. Vanity and vileness. We can only hope it ends while there’s still something left.

You don’t get to preach at people and shame them for not doing the thing they can’t safely do because of what their job is and their need to fucking survive. You want a general strike, then build a strike fund. Create legal funds to protect marginalized workers that will definitely be hurt.

What you don’t do is preach from safety and cheap seats with no skin in the game. You don’t shame people who are forced to work paycheck to paycheck begging for more shifts just so they can pay bills. You don’t order, you fucking lead. So get the fuck out of the way. Hypocrite.

1) what strike fund are you setting up and contributing to for those who will lose wages during your strike? 2) what jobs will you create to employ those fired because they didn’t show up for their shift? Not doing either of these? Then sit down and shut up.

In our history we’ve had Cabinets with people who were bad at their jobs, but good people who meant well. We’ve had people who were good at their jobs, but bad people. But we’ve not had one like Trump’s filled with people who are both garbage humans and terrible at their jobs.

Tribunals and spectacle of everyone involved with ICE, not just “agents” and leadership, but every single contractor CEO that participated in any way. Also, public trials, loss of citizenship, forfeiture of all assets, and deportation to countries used by ICE for the vile POS in the Epstein files.

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

If they are truly "only after dangerous criminals" ICE should not be able to lay a hand on ANYONE unless they have a warrant for that person. Random abductions of US citizens should be punishable. ICE should be held accountable for bodily injury, damage to property and loss of life. ICE OUT NOW!

Open letter to our Senators: Gentlemen, Ladies, we don't really care about ICE not getting even more funding. We don't care about more "training" and more rules they won't follow. We want ICE de-funded. Dismantled. Gone. Driven out of our cities.

I am calling on every US senator with a conscience and any sense of decency to vote NO on the appropriations bill funding ICE. These thugs and gangsters need to be removed from our cities and our streets. They must be held to account before whatever is left of that agency sees a penny of our $.

It is time to become ungovernable. They won’t stop until we are all quiet or in a body bag. I do not intend to be quiet. I do not intend to clutch my pearls. Our collective footsteps must be heard. An impenetrable wall of more people than they can stop must muster.

When this is over, and the kidnapped/detained have been freed, the monsters must pay a high price for what they have done. Examples must be set so that this will never happen again. This means making their supporters feel shunned, ostracized, outcast, and unwelcome. They are not America; we are.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

The time for protest is waning rapidly. The regime ignores and rejects the peoples’ call for the government to address their grievances. It is now the final few deep gasping breaths before the final act to restore the republic. They will not be quiet. They will not be pleasant. But necessary.

We are in the worst timeline ever. Humanity is beyond hope at this point. It is time for the elder gods to awaken and devour us all. Perhaps Cthulhu will be quick if we offer a FIFA peace prize? Barring that, where is the final destination log truck when you need it?!

ICEstapo detained 81 people in Charlotte, NC yesterday. The internet is littered with videos of them using excessive force and ignoring legal documentation provided by the detainees. Here’s my advice for ICEstapo: Take a night off. Go to the movies. Watch “Nuremberg”. Your time is coming.

I’m too young to have lived through WWII, but the photos of what the French, Belgians, and Dutch did to the collaborators and fascists that survived the war should be a roadmap of what happens to the supporters and collaborators of this regime.

When this horrible nightmare is over, every single ICE agent and member of this administration needs to spend some time in alligator Alcatraz. They built it so it’s the perfect place to stick them while they await prisoner deportation to a country they’ve never been to, like El Salvador.

Donald thinks we don’t want to see every pedophile arrested and imprisoned. He thinks we care whether or not they are a Republican or a Democrat. He thinks that will save him. WE DON’T CARE, PRESIDENT PEDOPHILE!!!
