i know there’s a lot going on but ICE are now one step closer to literally creating gas chambers. they are spraying a chemical called HDQ neutral roughly 100 times a day, every 15 minutes at the adelanto detention center (one of the biggest in the country). people are getting rashes, headaches, their insides are bleeding, etc. the guards are wearing gloves and masks but the detainees have NOTHING. and here’s a quick reminder - america inspired the nazis to create gas chambers when they gassed latino people during the 1917 bath riots. 

here’s a petition to sign. it’s close to it’s goal. if there’s anything else we can do to help i’ll update this post.

in the wake of yet another black person being murdered by police, here’s a list of relevant fundraisers and organizations that could use your support right now. 

this is specifically a call to action for fellow white people. if you’re white and you’re in any way able to, donate.

George Floyd’s memorial fund

Minnesota Freedom Fund: “We value a society that values its people, their freedom and recognizes their contribution to the greater good. A society that does not condition pretrial freedom on class or identity, that has ended mass incarceration, and that invests in restorative and transformative justice.”

Black Visions Collective, an org that strives to “shape a political home for Black people across Minnesota. We aim to center our work in healing and transformative justice principles, intentionally develop our organizations core DNA to ensure sustainability, and develop Minnesota’s emerging Black leadership to lead powerful campaigns.”

Reclaim the Block, which “organizes Minneapolis community and city council members to move money from the police department into other areas of the city’s budget that truly promote community health and safety. We believe health, safety and resiliency exist without police of any kind. We organize around policies that strengthen community-led safety initiatives and reduce reliance on police departments.”

A SWORD-WIELDING grandmother is teaching self-defence to young girls – at the grand old age of 73. Nicknamed ‘Sword Granny’, Meenakshi Raghavan from southern India has been practicing martial arts for 66 years. The grandmother began learning the martial art Kalaripayattu at the age of seven, when her father took her to a local fighter. And since 2009 Meenakshi has held classes in Vatakara where she teaches her 150 pupils how to defend themselves against attackers.

Anime Rec List: Slice of Life

“Slice of Life” is a genre of anime that typically focuses on the everyday lives and struggles of characters in a (typically) contemporary setting rather than any large, overarching plot. Here are my recommendations!

“It is not beautiful. There is not a call echoing in the ears of men who lust. You think, maybe, there ought to be a warning- but no one talks about ugly things. Deep down, you learn about nightmares, about breathing, about air rising to the surface. All the stories must have come from dreaming about rising to the surface, from thinking about the softness of the sunlight and how it- they- would never know it.”
