I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

One of the key ways you refuse to comply with fascism is by becoming even louder and more fearless in supporting vulnerable people. You SHOW that you are unwilling to throw the "undesirables" under the bus if only for self-preservation because under fascism you will also become undesirable one day.

This is very, very specifically about “if you’re capable of having a straight appearing relationship and having babies for the state, you better goddamn do so.”

Also let’s remember Brenda Howard and her surviving partner who has been such a champion for her legacy en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brenda_...

Let’s take the future into our own hands by becoming wilder and more ungovernable, including in our spiritual practices.
If it’s not anti-authoritarian, then it’s not witchcraft!!

the mRNA vaccines are an absolute miracle of science that saved millions of lives and we're going to throw the entire technology out because they could not vaccinate society against putting the worst and most ignorant people alive in charge of our medical system

There's some queer people I find supremely annoying and whose personalities do not mesh with mine. I'm still gonna protect them. Our numbers are already so small. We can't be losing our ranks because someone wasn't fun at a party so we left them behind.

Call me a radical but I think all people are capable of art and introspection. I think we all have the capacity to make meaningful, engaging, and empathic work.

Bottom line:
This isn’t budget policy, it’s a power grab. It strips judges of their ability to enforce the law and gives government officials a green light to ignore court orders. It’s authoritarian by design and it’s buried in the fine print.

award winning movies get made on iPhones, hit books get written by people with day jobs and self published, huge pop songs get recorded in basements and uploaded by the artist themselves.
my point is you don’t need special permission or equipment to be creative

make whatever you want and do it now✨

Did you know the “weekend” and working only 8 hours per day used to be considered a radical, liberal idea?

139 years ago today, in Bay View, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, 7 workers (including a 13 yo) lost their lives to advance this revolutionary idea.

It all makes more sense when you realize DOGE was never about saving Americans money. It was about gaining access to your data and building a weaponized political machine to use against the public.

Elon Musk’s staffers are trying to push into the National Gallery of Art. They recently met with the museum’s director and legal team, to question its legal status and explore ways to assert influence. One of the nation’s most respected art institutions is now in their crosshairs.

I truly cannot overstate how low the bar of entry is here. Pick up anything that can make a mark on anything else and join in on mankind’s ancient tradition of communicating through art
people using genAI because they "didn't go to art school, it's too late to learn" : I didn't go to art school, I went back to drawing at 27 and now, 7 years later, drawing is my job cause I worked my ass off learning & practising

Are the people telling you to post your activism and civil disobedience going to pay your bail? Pay your rent or mortgage and groceries whilst you're incarcerated awaiting trial? Going to get you your job back if you're fired?

No?

Then be smart about it. Don't post illegal shit online.

For all the folks in US: There is another big protest planned for this weekend on the 19th. Don’t write down you’re gonna go, just show up. We need to make ourselves heard. This shit isn’t normal and we need to defend our neighbors

If you can make it, please do. Don’t worry if you can’t

As someone who has survived a lot, one thing I have learned is that things are always changing.

Octavia Butler was on the money in that way:

"All that you touch
You Change.
All that you Change
Changes you.
The only lasting truth
Is Change.
God
Is Change."

As long as there is change there is hope
18. What gives you hope for the future?
