@GovDunleavy Remember the Alaskan Constitution? You were sworn to uphold it, weren’t you? And now….burn it if you don’t agree, correct? COVID saved your butt. Too bad

Don’t go limp. They tack on more charges and it doesn’t bother the cops at all. In fact when they all get back together they laugh and tell stories of the ones “who went limp like a kid or cried like a baby or screamed like a tantrum.”

If you are getting arrested, and you want to fuck with cops: don’t go limp go “stoic.”

This means you have one of two emotional displays. No emotion or smiling.

-The entire time you can. stare the cop in the eyes.
-Do not speak, except to invoke your 4th and 5th amendment rights, to demand a lawyer and if you are not in cuffs to inquire if you are detained.
-Do not resist arrest, put your hands behind your back when told to. If you can look a cop straight in the eyes while they cuff you. If not look forward.
-Always head up, looking forward.
-You are presenting the image that you are not afraid, of arrests or them.

Mass arrests at protests are a scare tactic, to cause mass confusion and to break up groups through fear. Cops want the limp bodies, they want the screaming. It tells them they are putting fear in their targets. If their targets are afraid, their targets will “leave on their own” ending the protest.

The stoic who does not fear arrest, does not fear their commands, who they know will just return to the protest as soon as the magistrate bonds them out…cops don’t know how to deal with that. It bothers them. They are used to arrests at protests being messy and loud, silence messes with them.

They know their power is driven by fear. Fear of the items on their belt, fear of the back seat of the cruiser, fear of the court systems. They are trained to utilize that fear.

Show them they cannot make you afraid anymore. They are not trained or prepared for that.

(This is psychological warfare, not legal advice and not insight to how this could affect a case after being arrested.)

men complain about not having support and community or anyone who “cares about their mental health”, but whenever they are required to engage in behavior that builds community (like check on their friends after surgery) they get mad lol.

men were in his replies calling him “gay” for wanting friends who would show up for him.

male loneliness is self-inflicted.

This is a must read. AK prisons had 2 times as many deaths as New York. Former Governor Walker tooks steps to change that. Dunleavy's administration undid that effort.

Then Republicans canceled the hearing."

Pieces of 💩

[Anchorage Daily News @adndotcom]

The U.S. Department of Education this week designated Alaska as “a high-risk grantee” because it said the state failed to fairly distribute COVID-19 relief to school districts. https://t.co/EinGrNSWD3

[Sen. Bill Wielechowski @SenWielechowski]

The US Dept of Education has designated Alaska a "high-risk" grantee for noncompliance with requirements under American Rescue Plan Act. As only state in nation to fail to comply, AK will have to come up w $29 million to schools & is at risk of losing $425 million in fed funds

One of the responses to my tweet about men who abuse their wives by demanding sex while she’s healing from giving birth is that other people’s marriages are none of my business.

This is how rape culture weaponizes privacy.

Update: the @AnchDemocrats said they wouldn’t have endorsed if he wasn’t pro-choice. I asked for receipts and they hid all the comments and blocked me from commenting.

I’m not saying it’s chickenshit behavior and just proves they cant actually justify the endorsement, but…
