Today there is a multitude of public gatherings around Portland, along with the rest of the USA, to decry "NO KINGS" on this day that Trump has coopted the military's questionable anniversary to be a giant parade for his birthday.

All in the wake of weeks of skewing-totalitarian actions from federal departments, most notably ICE agents violating people's rights and subsequent violations of the rule of law to deploy the military to quell protests associated with that.

But I'm a dirty, filthy, job-stealing, woman-claiming, green-carded immigrant non-citizen.  So my rights are in doubt, and I have a [waves arms about] well-documented history of speaking out against cheeto hitler.  So I'm going to stay here, catch up on some sleep, and keep my head down - physically.

And also poke my citizenship application, so that I can theoretically in the future be out and about threatening to punch nazis.
