- Reposted by .chantal//RYANAs someone who has a close family member dealing with ALS, seeing this sort of tech is especially touching for me. Anything that makes the lives of the people inflicted with this nightmare better is truly important, meaningful, cherished work.

- Reposted by .chantal//RYANEvery extra hour that ICE spends facing off with activists is an hour they can't spend kidnapping other people. Every extra minute ICE has to spend contingency planning around activists and neighbors, every extra officer ICE has to put on a kidnap squad, is a drain on their efficiency.
