The idea that the DOJ is asking for private student data to promote "fairness" in admissions is ludicrous. Instead the info will be weaponized to force our compliance w discriminatory directives from the Trump admin.

Our enormous loss

An ICE agent inside an airport, leaning against a pole and fucking around on his phone. He's next to a window, which looks out at a huge line of people waiting to even get inside the terminal to stand in a security line.

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US.

Kids tear-gassed at a bike ride protest in Oregon.
And before you predictably say “why do you bring a kid to a protest?” — why do you keep defending a brutal police state? What country do you want to live in?
