Have you felt censored? Have you shyed away from online discourse because no one had your same opinion? Have strong opinions on censorship in general?
Well, even if you haven't, I composed a 7-12 minute survey on social media self/corporate censorship. Would be grateful if you take it! =]
I think it goes without saying that I want every ICE agent to take a hot spatula up the ass but wanting isn't enough so here are some things I've been delighting in that you can too
1) Show up to raids and protests. Mask up, turn off your location, record everything, etc. etc. If you're white, use your privilege to be the front of the line and do the talking. Pro tip: don't call them fascists—they don't care and even take pride in it. Call them gay or whatever hits their toxic masculine owie spot. And keep an eye on your local ICE watch for new movement.
2) Make noise. Lots of it, especially at night around their hotels. It only takes a few people with a car horn or musical instruments, but of course, the more the merrier. Bagpipe players, this is your time to shine. ICE is roving from place to place day after day, so a few nights of no sleep will quickly get to them.
3) Skip police, call the tow companies. ICE has a tendency to park in places they're not supposed to, and contrary to what The Sofa Slut says, they are not immune and tow companies are more than happy to take their vehicles.
4) Flood hotels and businesses. Hilton is a major culprit, but so are local ones. Keep calling reception, including at night. Be nice to the staff, but demand that they stop serving ICE. Hotels have already refused to rent because of this.
5) Ice ICE. If you live in a cold place like me, get a battery-powered kettle and pour hot water on the cars, especially onto the windshields and into the wiper wells. Get a snowblower and garden hose and douse them and their vehicles, especially when it's parked without them around. Pack snow in the tailpipe. Lead them into the snowdrifts and ice patches—you know the terrain, they don't. They're basically trying to invade Russia in the winter.
6) Ridicule strips power. In their minds, our anger is irrational and only justifies their presence. Mock them, laugh at them, meme the hell out of them. Let them know they are the laughingstock of this and every other country.
7) Refuse them service. "We're all booked." "We're closing." "We have the right to refuse service to anyone." Whether you are a hotel concierge, cashier at McDonald's, or anything else. Don't help them, don't take their money. If your boss doesn't give you a choice, be absolutely incompetent at your job to slow them down. The kitchen is now backed up and takes an hour for salads.
8 – and most important) Look out for your neighbors. Warn people if you see ICE activity. Don't answer your doors. Don't give up information about yourself or others. In fact, as far as you're concerned, you've never seen an immigrant in your life. Other than maybe the house that belongs to the local legislator you hate. Also, donate to local efforts and families being impacted, offer grocery deliveries, safe rides, distributing information, etc.—practical things that keep the community running and sustains momentum.

Halbarry Week 2025 Ch5: My Heart Races For You, But I'll Try To Keep It Quiet (Private Moment + Fake Marriage) by @ceeloilights
Barry always tries to come through for his best friend, even if that means placing himself in a nerve-wracking situation. A couple's game show.
the consequences of my actions (i could get used to this) by @astro-mario
He ends up having to restrain Hal's hands over his head with one hand, other hand fumbling with the injection, finally letting his hands down when he stopped thrashing. Now no longer in horrid, bone wrenching pain, Hal finds it in himself to ask the real, hard-hitting questions. "What'll it take for you to let me pin your hands up like that?"

Seven And A Half Candles Still Makes A מְנוֹרָה, Right? by @kirkshouseplant
“Does anyone have any final questions?” Batman asked from the head of the table, as another Justice League meeting came to a close. “Concerns?”
“Uh yeah, Spooky, I do.” Green Lantern chimed in from the other end of the table, with the raising of his right hand. He was never going to hear the end of this. “Is anyone here Jewish and single?”
“I don’t think that’s appropriate-” Batman tried.
“I am one of those things,” Superman said kindly, “But, I’m happily married.” Before smilingly slightly in Batman's direction. A gesture that Hal would have questioned just a bit more if he hadn't already felt so flustered.
“I’m both those things!” Barry exclaimed from the far end of the table, “What do you need me for?”
Yes Barry, I know that. Hal thought to himself. He was hoping that someone else would have answered. As not only was Barry his best friend, but his mother had known the speedster for years because of that fact. Which would only make the whole affair much more complicated.
This Love’s Possessing Me (But I Don’t Mind At All) Ch6: There Was Only One Bed (Or Was There?) by @layspotatochipabs
“Flash. Stay behind for a second.” Bruce’s cowl sat at the base of his neck, his finger beckoning as Barry made his way to him. Hal had volunteered himself and the speedster for the undercover mission, where they had to pose as a couple, so Barry assumed Bruce wanted to communicate some more details about their plans. “This is your chance,” Bruce hissed, his voice low in Barry’s ear. “Don’t fuck it up.” “Bruce—” “No,” Bruce cut Barry’s attempt to interject, his tone firm. “You will confess by the end of this mission. We’re all tired of this little back and forth you and Hal seem to have. Am I clear?”

In astronomy, Parallax is the apparent shift in position of a nearby celestial object relative to distant background objects which is caused by a change in the observer's point of view.
Also known as, Hal and Barry will end up finding each other in every universe.

This Love’s Possessing Me (But I Don’t Mind At All) Ch5: Seven Minutes by @layspotatochipabs
Seven minutes. They say the brain is still active for seven minutes after death. Your mind replays your entire life from birth to death like a condensed movie, summarizing everything you ever accomplished. Hal had seen it once when he’d died in another lifetime, but this time, it was different. All of Hal’s memories were of his most recent years with Barry.

Love Me Like There’s No Tomorrow — Composed and Produced by Hal Jordan and Barry Allen. Ch3: Day 4 — “I won’t let you get lost in your speed. Don’t let me get lost in the stars.” by @jordan-allen-corps
”Barry’s fucking what—“
”I said he’s lost in the Speed Force — do you need me to say it in Spanish?” Guy’s holoform snaps, nose flaring before he promptly spits out; “Barry está perdido en la Fuerza de la Velocidad—“
”I heard you the first damn time,” Hal snaps back with clashing teeth, heart jackrabbiting into his throat, voicebox and probably every single part of him that has a heartbeat. He’s miles away from Earth, in some backwater part of Nok with Munk and Kyle because apparently they’ve been having issues with some foreign lifeforms degrading the water supply, and Barry’s fucking lost in the Speed Force and Why on God’s green Earth is Guy telling him instead of a speedster? “From the start, Guy.”
(Or, Barry’s alone in the Speed Force, and Hal is called in as cavalry. There’s also a promise made, one in their endless list of them.)
This Love’s Possessing Me (But I Don’t Mind At All) Chapter 4: Don't You Want Me Like I Want You, Baby? by @layspotatochipabs
“Barry.” Hal frowned, his hand finding the speedster’s, their fingers intertwining affectionately. “Barry. I won’t let you get lost in your speed. Don’t let me get lost in the stars,” he whispered, his voice desperate as he pressed an emotion-filled kiss against the back of Barry’s hand.
Hal Jordan believed in soulmates. Barry Allen didn’t. At least, not anymore. “It’s probably just platonic, Barry.” Why did he ever think they could be anything more than friends?

La entrevista a Parallax by @hiso03
—Pediste que viniera—réplica y Hal sonríe, muestra dientes afilados y amarrilos y Booster supone que Parallax dejó más secuelas en Hal de las que tenían registradas en los informes.
—Eres el único que no se asusta tan fácilmente con esto—explica tirando de las cadenas como si fuera un ademán—. Bruce parece odiarme, Clark me mira con compasión y Oliver parece no reconocer el rostro del hombre al que intentó asesinar, pero tú… Tú sólo ves a alguien miserable.
—Al menos sabes que te ves mal.
///
"You asked me to come," he retorts, and Hal smiles, showing sharp, jagged teeth, and Booster guesses Parallax left more scars on Hal than the reports had recorded.
"You're the only one who doesn't get scared easily by this," he explains, tugging at the chains as if it were a gesture. "Bruce seems to hate me, Clark looks at me with compassion, and Oliver doesn't seem to recognize the face of the man he tried to kill, but you... You just see someone miserable."
"At least you know you look bad."

this youth is crazy (yeh jawaani hai deewani) by @astro-mario
Hal ditches Barry on a train platform after a whirlwind romance during a hiking trip. It's not like they'll have to meet again years later at Kyle and Wally's wedding.
Ready, Set, Don’t Go by @jordan-allen-corps
Not even the League could have this piss poor attempt at an invasion, because not even two minutes after Barry and Bruce slink after J’onn onto the ship, there’s a sharp gust of wind behind Hal, an abrupt stop, the light pittering of a very familiar energetic foot and — Hal breathes in, closes his eyes and thinks, hysterically, For fucks sake.
”Wally,” Hal begins very carefully, constructing a dome around them as more robots rush at them, clawing and scraping and trying to blast their ways through the barrier. “Do not tell me you and the other Teen Titans are on scene right now.”
”Uh, not all of us? Garth is a little late.”
Very slowly, dragging his feet, Hal turns around to see Wally in full Kid Flash costume, wild curls wind-swept, a half-anxious, shit-eating grin that Hal has seen one too many times on Iris’ face.

Barry melted a little at the sight of Hal’s happiness, a small giggle escaping his throat. Diana must’ve also caught the soft expression on Barry’s face because she shot him another pointed look, her aptly shaped eyebrow arched high. Her eyes flitted between him and Hal again, as if trying to imply something Barry couldn’t quite interpret. “Maybe they should get married,” Diana stage-whispered to Clark.

Love Me Like There’s No Tomorrow — Composed and Produced by Hal Jordan and Barry Allen. Ch2 by @jordan-allen-corps
Red bags hang under Barry’s eyes, heavy as this morning. He offers a smile before he reaches for Hal’s mug and lifts it closer, a silent plea. “Tell me about it,” He asks, soft. “Your nightmare, it helps to talk.”
Hal returns with a half-broken smile, lips cracked dry, licking them. “Your shrink tell you that?” ”You did, Hal.”
“Oh,” Is what Hal responds with, a singular vowel, Barry shaking his head in response, teeth a little white and perfect. “I—“ Hal thins his mouth out, dropping his hands to curl his frost bitten fingers around the searing mug, steam warming up his ears. Old phantom memories have been ringing in his ears for years, wailing and whining and begging, and he doesn't think about them as much as he should — and yet. Yet.
Guy calls him repressed. John says he’s trying to protect himself. Kyle gave him a Father’s Day card and said that he’s already broken the cycle.
(Or, Hal has a nightmare on his first night back and it leads to some thoughts, and a returned item of grief.)
This Love’s Possessing Me (But I Don’t Mind At All) Ch2 by @layspotatochipabs
Carol had convinced Hal to sign up for a speed-dating event at one of the local bars. “You should go,” she’d suggested—more like told—her eyebrows wriggling with a playful tease. “It’ll be fun.” It’ll be fun. Maybe Carol was right. Oh, she was definitely right.
