@iris we still use protonmail, the automatic encryption between proton addresses is useful for us as many anti-fascists already use it.

If proton gets worse, we'll probably go back to using our riseup address and encrypt the emails the old fashioned way.

Simultaneously Trump is forcing migrants into a concentration camp in Cuba and forcing Palestinians out of their homes in Gaza.

Both of these acts violate Constitutional and International Law.

The government censoring scientists is horrific.

But what is even more horrific is that many non-government scientists and institutions are self-censoring themselves because they are scared of the government and losing funding.

Authoritarianism wins when we comply in advance!

Today is the first day of Black History Month here in the US. Right as we're watching our government begin the erasure of minorities out of existence.

These attempts won't work as long as we commit to standing up for each other and lifting up marginalized voices.

I find myself thinking about Porco Rosso this morning. It's both my favorite Ghibli and antifascist movie, because it illustrates the incredible power of a simple "no."

Porco doesn't respect fascists at any level. He doesn't respect their law or power or culture.

And they can't stand it.

A reminder that you should stop using period tracker apps. Keep that stuff to yourself. Track it on paper.

Stock up on birth control & emergency contraception if you can. Having mifepristone on hand would be good too.

Even if you don’t need it, you will be in a position to help someone who does.

If you need to travel out of State for healthcare, make arrangements offline.

If you can assist someone who needs to travel out of State, do so discretely.

If you’ve had an abortion, don’t disclose to anyone unless you absolutely have to.

At least one State (Indiana) wants to make abortion records public. They want to track what women are doing with their bodies and we must resist as much as we can.
