We stopped doing overpass demos for a time because it was cold and then we decided "Fuck it, we've got mittens." Today me and 14-ish neighbors braved the 20° F weather and hung our NO KINGS banner from and waved at traffic for two hours.

Every 18-wheeler this time (except for one) honked and waved at us. All but one. That's different from October.

I went home via the library where I printed out some "How to report ICE" zines. Get zines here

Checking in from team "Fuck it, we've got mittens."

In solidarity with our cold-weather comrades in Minnesota and elsewhere, we held an anti-ICE rally in our tiny downtown in 17° weather for the evening commute. Folks were mostly supportive except for a few jerk men who yelled things (not a thing you get at overpass protests). The great thing about mittens is you can just give them the finger the whole time and it doesn't have to be a whole thing. Do what you can. #ICEout
