The @dfwsupportcommittee, which is organizing support for the Prairieland defendants, has been issuing regular updates on the progress of the trial, and I highly recommend following their account and subscribing to their email list, if you're at all interested in this.

The latest update (linked below) is about two cooperating witnesses whose testimony seems to have largely backfired on the prosecution: they both said that the events in question were only meant to be a noise demo, that violence was never their plan, and one described the drastic level of coercion that was used to get her to sign a plea statement that someone else wrote.

Additionally, the new update from the DFW Support Committee addresses the antifa "expert" who the prosecution is slated to call to the stand next. In short: he's got no actual expertise and instead only has a long track record of provocative statements (often relating to the alleged threat posed by Muslims generally and "shariah law" in particular) and self-serving appearances on right-wing media outlets.

That's just a summary. I recommend reading the whole thing (it's really not that long).

These updates are really well written overall, and the content should appeal to anyone who is interested in or concerned about the right to assemble, protest, or even speak up at all in the US, as well as anyone who is generally trying to keep up with immigration policy and deepening state repression overall. Over time, whatever happens to these defendants will undoubtedly happen to more and more people around the country. We would all do well to stay informed about this case.

Ok I tried just quoting this from my old profile, but that's not working out so well. So here's a little copy/paste action:

Hey! I'm Sam, and I'm in the US (don't hold that against me). I use they/she pronouns. Would love to make some new internet friends to share ideas and funny memes with!

Aquarius? I don't really buy into astrology as a sure thing, but I certainly can't deny that we're all made of star dust. Besides, it's fun! Is that very Aquarius of me?

Queer! Late-blooming lesbian? Was in a 15-year relationship with a cis-man and identified as bi until mid-2025. But I believe gender and sexuality are fluid!

Parent! I have a 4-year-old, and he's really cool. Trying to raise him to be a decent human being.

Crafts! Typical ADHD person who tries a new hobby every 5 minutes. I like cross stitch, knitting, crocheting, cardmaking, and most recently have started my first loom weaving project. Very into folk art and what has historically been considered "women's hobbies."

Movies! Love watching movies, reading about them, and analyzing everything in them. Was a video producer/editor in a past life.

Horror fan! I am really into horror, but it's not the ONLY kind of media I'm into. Just started reading more horror last year, so send me your horror book recommendations!

Music! I'm mainly a drummer, but I dabble in other instruments as well. Also love listening to all sorts of genres. I have been really into hyper-pop and death metal lately.

Politics! very left. Fuck ICE. Free Palestine. Eat the rich.

Thanks for reading my novel.

Cricket deserved better.
So did every human being arrested and / or murdered by ICE and the DHS.
