Queer, wlw, she/her, a fic writer, and I used to make fan music. I'm still here but I'm spending a lot more time on mastodon these days and you should look up #monsterdon if you come over, it's fun :D

You want to call your House rep now and tell them Trump needs to be impeached immediately for defying a Supreme Court order (re: Kilmar Abrego Garcia), which functionally voids our constitution and means no one in America has rights anymore.

I am not exaggerating.

As of now, anybody can be disappeared, no due process, no recourse. Trump is openly disregarding a Supreme Court order and says he’ll send US citizens to El Salvador.

This is not a drill.

Call your House rep and tell them they must impeach. Tell them if they cannot bring themselves to impeach, they must resign. A more open and shut case to impeach is not possible. Trump and his administration are saying openly, in public, that anybody can be kidnapped by ICE, even in error, and disappeared permanently.

Call your senators, too, and tell them to support impeachment (it goes to them once it passes a majority House vote).

"Hello, my name is _______ and I am a constituent from _______. My address is ________.

I am reaching out today to urge Representative ______ to call for the impeachment of President Trump due to his refusal to comply with the Supreme Court's April 10th decision regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was unlawfully deported and has been charged with no crime. As Justice Sotomayor stated, this inaction implies the government's ability to 'deport and incarcerate any person, including U.S. citizens, without legal consequence, so long as it does so before a court can intervene.' This precedent is unconstitutional, highly illegal, and grounds for impeachment. Every individual, regardless of immigration status, must be guaranteed a right to due process.

Representative _____, I urge you to stand on the right side of history today by calling for President Trump's impeachment. This administration can not be allowed to continue unilaterally defying the checks and balances that are intrinsic to our government."

You can also find your representative and senators and their phone numbers on https://5calls.org/

Please don't be afraid of calling. Your job would just be to be a data point, not to sound perfect. Here's some info on why calling is effective.

Very proud to be Chris Van Hollen's constituent. He's standing on business and demanding a meeting with Bukele. If the meeting doesn't happen he's going to El Salvador himself.

Bring Kilmar home.

We used to be same-town neighbors so this hits really close to home. His wife says their special-needs son (5 years old) buries himself in Kilmar's clothing for comfort and, especially as a parent myself, that broke me

I wish the world wasn't on fire so I could properly enjoy people arguing about fraudulent dire wolves.

I can't say this hasn't gotten me wondering what genes they could flip on for a corgi.

Okay, new idea...

I'm developing a gene editing tool called STUMPR.

straight people are so fascinating even when they aren't actively trying to be homophobic. I had a class a few years ago where one assignment was to summarize some eighth century arabic poetry about going out for drinks with the lads before indulging in some gay sex and like half the class came in and said "I'm sorry idk what was happening in this one, they mention having sex with a servant but they also say the servant's a man? where'd the woman come from? I'm so confused." and a few days ago in a shakespeare class I made a comment about how cleopatra and octavius caesar are kind of parallel characters in possessively bartering for mark antony's attention and one of my classmates responded as though I'd been talking about octavia and not caesar, despite the fact that I said "caesar" and "him" multiple times while describing the actions he specifically took. fully incapable of comprehending of anything that's even a little bit gay.

There are so many theories about Columbo’s wife not being real (she’s a complete fabrication, she’s secretly his boyfriend, he’s actually talking about a very opinionated cat, etc) and I love all of them but tbh he really gives off major “out of touch but super supportive straight man with a trans wife” vibes.

His wife was one of his guy friends for a while and when she finally came out to him he was like “Oh, wouldja look at that! This is VERY convenient. See, I’ve never been into guys myself. Nothing against fellas who like that, just not my cup of tea. So I’ve been trying to figure out for ages why I want to ask you out on a date. Confusin the heck out of me. Again, nothing against it, just never something I’ve been into before. I was having a whole identity crisis over it, Yknow. But I guess that clears all that up! Whaddaya say to dinner?”

I only got one good shot in Shoreline (Washington State) because my phone battery was dying on me after being overwhelmed with the turnout in Bothell (Washington State) being too large to photograph together and also overloading the cell towers.

The crowd is about the same on both sides of the street and also down (State Highway) 104/205th NE. Count was solidly over 1000 people.

Bothell turnout was similarly sized That's not something I've ever seen in Bothell, before. Somebody who lived there told me that their normal biggest event is 4th of July and this was bigger.

Here are some Bothell panoramas but I couldn't photograph it all, it was too big and went too many places

It won't mean anything to most of you but the crowd went all the way to the old trestle bridge past downtown to the east, and there were people on that bridge, too.

Said bridge (it filled up more later):

If the crowd size estimate is right somewhere between 2 and 2.5% of the entire population of the town turned out, and that's pretty dang good. And also reasonable because the national turnout was well over 5 million and that's a similar number.

This is for all y’all who don’t understand how terrifying these suckers are.
