i know someone who is not a student but was detained by CBP and deported over canary mission while on a layover. do not play around!

Not sure if most people realize that there are no release dates at CECOT. All detentions are indefinite

This could happen to countless of my students at any time.

No clear definition of what “supporting Hamas” means

No opportunity to question or appeal the charge

No communication of what other speech could, it in the future, be defined as justifying similar secret police seizures.

"No single incident prompted the investigation into Mount Vernon’s approximately 160-officer force. But the illegal strip search in 2020 of two women, one age 65 and the other 75, were emblematic of the department’s shortcomings, said the report, which was released Thursday."

❤️ love seeing young trans dudes just chillin

i think we do not have enough ways of managing this kind of violent memory and grief so it’s repackaged to be less horrific. my school absolutely failed to convert how awful the nazis were and kinda just tucked it into WW2 lessons

Still from footage of Palestine solidarity protests in Jordan above a photo of President Biden at a news conference in Israel with the words “Protesters are ready to throw shoes at another US President for supporting alleged war crimes” — the words are in reference to Iraqi journalist Muntadhar al-Zaidi throwing his shoes at President Bush in a press conference in Baghdad back in 2008

Looking at this email notification about my student loan payment like

I wrote up all my thoughts about the Gaza attack on my blog:

i booked a trip with my housemate to brazil because benin was gonna be there for work which would make the trip super cheap but now benin isn’t going to be there and i’m just gonna show up with a credit card and a prayer 😭 so bad with money 💅

A Dying Postcolonialism By Esmat Elhalaby Perhaps it’s apt that a dying political ideology seeks redemption in a dead discipline. As the Israeli government and public become ever more vocal and defensive about their…

the beautiful brooklyn boy was texting me last night and told me that he’d come visit me in london but he’s not eligible for a passport. as MIA famously said “borders, what’s up with that”

when i got into casual sex with gay men, i recognized i needed to get on prep and i made a point to learn more anal hygiene. this education shouldn’t be so one sided lol

cis men love hitting it raw and fantasizing about breeding on grindr until you bring up birth control lmaooo i’m sick tired of their fragility and fear of the body for its natural capacities. like is that not why you have these fetishes, just be an adult 🤷‍♀️

it’s astounding to realize how little organized opposition utah has to this. the main lgbtq groups provide cover and defend the people doing this right after their statement claiming to oppose this shit

summer dress, linen short sleeve button up and cute shorts/trousers, nice cotton tank top

desperately wish i lived somewhere with easy access to a variety of squashes and peppers. getting on a train is not happening in this weather

The uni has already devalued the degree and the marks by refusing to pay people fairly and turning education into a business. Whatever you do, don’t feel bad or responsible for their decisions

cat being sleepy

kareem is the reason i’m always late to work

need recommendations to read, prefer novels but open to a lot, including academic texts. just want something engaging and not too difficult to get into :)

okay, i fucked him during my lunch break and he just doesn’t speak much english. he was hung and brazilian and told me what i should do when i visit brazil next month. beautiful

men are so fucking funny

also just a weird thing to ask. like take off your clothes and say less. we didn’t pick each other for personality

this guy i hooked up with asked me where i’m from and when i said utah he started joking about mormonism and asked if i’m out to my family so i asked if he grew up religious and was like "i’m muslim” so i asked if he’s out lmaooo. like why did he think he could joke with me and not take it too?

downloaded grindr and realized there’s lots of gay people in london. has any one ever realized this

anyone else holding space for both love and grief in their life right now?

having a bad time grieving and just remembering everything from two years ago (literally today lol body keeps the score of whatever 🫠) but grateful for all my little faggots and friends for being there and being here. it’s a violent anniversary but also an anniversary of people supporting me

how long does it take to complete all the surgeries? where can you find photos of people’s results when considering which method and surgeon?

i dont have money but benin is going to brazil for work and i am gonna get a new credit card to pay for a flight so i can also go to brazil lol. i just love the beach and don’t think you should need money to spend money
