Anyway shout out to 2025 for being the worst year of the decade so far. The competition was stiff, but by golly, you've done it.

My most woke opinions would get my account nuked. Some softer ones:
No Borders. No Prisons. No States. Abolish the Family. Popping your abuser is a liberatory act. I personally should be allowed to hit every unmasked person w/n 20ft of me w/ a paintball with no consequences as a Covid precaution.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

💔 Alice Wong’s last words: “Don’t let the bastards grind you down.”
We can never thank Alice enough for fighting all the good fights and especially all the hard fights. We all learned so much from your brilliance, your courage, and your indefatigable leadership. We will never forget you.

if you go to any protest action you should be wearing a mask and clothing that does not reveal your figure as the feds are filming you in 4K so they can run you through their data databases.
this coincidentally is why you don’t sign up to RSVP for an event under fascism

an agent on the roof of the broadview ice facility is filming the crowd of protesters below with a dslr.
a protester joking asked, “does it shoot 4k?” and the agent nodded his head yes.

I am working very hard to let “what if my body is like this for life?” be a generative question rather than the thought terminating one it’s been for me up until now.

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.

Let's talk about weird art.
Weird art, gross art, sexual art, violent art, all has its place and belongs. And you really need to stop acting like the existence of uncomfortable themes equals harm. That kind of censorship, which IS what that is, only serves to silence and abuse people.

Is there a top shortage or have you internalized the idea that being the receptive partner makes you inherently incapable of harm and lets you off the hook for developing communication skills or basic care and regard for the other party

How do we live like the world is ending? Balance four contradictory ideas:
Act like we’re about to die.
Act like we might not die right away.
Act like we might have a chance to stop this.
Act like everything will be okay.

I regularly think about how Emma Goldman, after endless decades of struggle and deportation, got the chance for a brief few years to live in an anarchist society
Happy birthday Emma! After her 66th birthday, Emma Goldman left France for the Spanish revolution. Even in the last decade of her life she travelled to the front lines to meet Durruti & to witness the people in arms. She was also the official representative of the CNT-FAI and generalitat in London!
Happy birthday, Emma Goldman! On this day in 1869, the Lithuanian Jewish anarchist-feminist writer, philosopher and agitator was born. 🏴
