i’m seeing a lot of messaging (in art and otherwise) that Minnesota/Minneapolis isn’t afraid of ICE, and i feel obligated to clarify: we are afraid.

our city is under occupation by federal agents who are shooting citizens in the streets. we are fucking terrified. we’re scared that we’ll witness or experience violence every time we leave our homes. we’re scared that we won’t witness something we could’ve prevented. we’re scared that proceeding with our daily responsibilities is allowing our neighbors to be brutalized. we’re scared that our fear is only giving the federal occupation more power and then we feel guilty for not fearlessly fighting it. we have things we want to do in the upcoming weeks, months, and years that we are scared a federal gun will take away.

we don’t want to be looked to as paragons of revolution, we just want to live in our city.

what do you mean elon musk did a nazi salute on live tv at the united states presidential inauguration twice and is now erasing the evidence off the internet by replacing the footage with the crowd cheering instead?

would be a shame if people reblogged this, wouldn’t it?

banned books you need to read

with everything going on in the world, it's so important to stay educated. a lot of these books are banned because there are parallels to dystopia and today. these books are just some that i have read, and i'm working on reading more banned books, so drop your recs below!

1984 by George Orwell

The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

The Giver by Lois Lowry

The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls

Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson

The Color Purple by Alice Walker

Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury

You're the Only One I've Told by Meera Shah

**note: by the term, "banned books", it means that these books are frequently challenged, usually by conservative groups, and as a result, these books have been banned in some schools and libraries across the US. so these do NOT mean they are banned everywhere.

BUT the trump administration is aiming to ban A LOT books across the US, and most of the books on here are on their list.**

I just read that Donald Trump and his circus took down a website called reproductiverights.gov

This was a website to help women learn about their reproductive rights in the US and to find health care.

This is absolutely disgusting so I’ll share in this post some resources in case you need them:

I feel like my life went from a complete stand still to going 300 when the speed limit is 20. I graduated this last December, so 2024, I'm getting married in 13 days and I just put an offer in on a house. Life is crazy

I’m seeing a bunch of posts that make me think most USAmericans don’t know about The No Surprises Act.

It was passed in 2021 (thank you Biden) and essentially states that if you don’t have insurance or your insurance doesn’t cover a service you need (or want) you are entitled to a Good Faith Estimate of the cost of care. (If your insurance does cover the service, you should be able to estimate the cost of care based on your deductible and co-pay.)

As a healthcare provider who does not accept any insurance, I am very careful to not violate The No Surprises Act. Why? Because for every penny more than $400 that the Good Faith Estimate was “off” (or if it wasn’t provided), you are entitled to a refund for that amount.

Y’all. Ask for a Good Faith Estimate. Get it in writing. Compare it to what you are paying. If you are not provided an estimate or if it’s wrong by more than $400, demand a refund.

[sandersstudies]

Fine, I’ll be the one to ask.

IF YOU LIVE IN THE US, PLEASE READ THIS

Posting this from the bird app since I hope it can help people.

People have been contacting the White House directly to demand a recount, especially since there has been evidence that not every ballot has been counted and will be thrown away if it hasn't been cured.

The link to contact the White House is here!

Contact Us | The White House

Contact the President, Vice President, get help with a Federal Agency, or request a Presidential Greeting.

The following screenshot comes from here!

If you need help writing something, check under the cut! I've provided a prewritten response from one of the replies!

"I am a concerned citizen, and I need you to hear me. I urge you to recount the ballots from this election and investigate election interference. Bomb threats have been called into multiple polling locations, causing some to close early. Domestic terrorists have burned ballot boxes. An unprecedented number of ballots have been rejected and require curing. There have been reports of polling officers allowing voter intimidation in and outside of polling places across the country and an estimated 20 million mail in ballots are unaccounted for. In addition, many people have reported that ballots were not counted for suspicious reasons such as signature invalidation which is information that vote counters do not have access to. These events have occurred in swing states such as Pennsylvania, Nevada, and Georgia, for instance."

Feel free to add and change what you want, this is just a base for you to work off of.
