CW: natural disasters, flooding This is where I used to work in Brazil & I owe a lot of my political education and radicalization to Black and Indigenous activists I met during my time there If you have anything to spare, even few dollars can go a long way ❤️ (link below)

caveat to this = beware of false friends bc I learned the hard way that "propina" does NOT mean the same thing in Brazilian Portuguese as it does in Spanish 💀

Speaking Spanish gives you the ability to understand most portuguese and sometimes italian but not knowing how to speak it

100% - Financial distress can be a major contributor to suicidality that's too often downplayed or overlooked in mainstream conversations on suicide imo and in the US, a hospitalization can result in medical bills and/or loss of pay that just further contributes to the problem
Interpretive🍉Dan@StanChipsOct 14
The uncomfortable truth is our society is profoundly unconducive for suicide prevention. Bills still pile up. The odds of having ppl with the bandwidth/emotional intelligence to help you is a diceroll. Professionals have waitlists. Every facet of society is stacked against you.

CW: suicide / suicidality like yes sometimes people are suicidal for mental health reasons and sometimes those mental health experiences are directly tied to people's material conditions

This suicide prevention month I’m resharing one of my favorite articles on being passively suicidal. Really reframed my experience and gave me more ability to talk about it. If this is you, you’re not alone: theoutline.com/post/7267/liv…

I am not always very attached to being alive

Chronic, passive suicidal ideation is like living in the ocean. Let’s start talking about how to tread water.

And when one of the workers (who witnessed the negligence first hand) was willing to testify about it— ICE jumped in and deported the worker before he could go on the record. Abolish ICE.

Seven years ago today, the Hard Rock Hotel construction site collapsed in New Orleans, claiming the lives of three workers: Anthony Magrette, Quinnyon Wimberly and Jose Ponce Arreola. Today, we remember their lives and honor their memory.

Philando Castile was shot in front of his 4 year old daughter. What ICE did was abhorrent—however it is not new. I think that’s important to name.

Hey so ICE shooting a car with a 5 year old child in it is exactly what the IDF does to Palestinian families

Give directly to Palestinians. Large international charities are part of the repressive, restrictive order that supports & enables genocide by deciding who is worthy of life and access to resources. This is genocidal supremacy culture masquerading as generosity:

A U.S. charity in Gaza is worried that teachers at its schools might stray from a curriculum it says promotes peace and tolerance, so it plans to record classroom conversations and use artificial intelligence to flag speech deemed “hateful” or “inciting.” apnews.com/article/gaza-chil…

I threw together an explainer on what is happening with Olmstead rights (and what those are, for people unfamiliar). 19thnews.org/2026/10/disabil…

The federal government is backing away from a decades-old disability rights promise

Lois Curtis and Elaine Wilson won a victory that gave people with disabilities the freedom to choose where they live. That legacy is now under threat.
