Good long read thread 🧵
So, this is a thing that Paulo Freire describes in the first chapter of Pedagogy of the Oppressed: in the initial phases of a revolutionary struggle, the oppressed don't desire liberation, they desire the power to oppress.

Now, the reasons for this are more complicated.
Been saying this for a while now.

People don't wanna get rid of oppression, they want their turn to be the oppressor.

2. French Canadians descendents make up for 3% of the populations of the U.S.. Two of my mom's brothers moved in NH, but they were not the first. She had uncles and aunts in the States as a child who would spend the summer in her ancestral home.

The map shows U.S. towns with francophones in 1897.

1. Remigration: it's in the works.

Americans with French-Canadian names are asking for proof of an ancestor in Rimouski's registry, so they can get a passport.

Just in January, Rimouski's archivist had 150 demands. It's happening everywhere in Québec.

The number of times I've referenced this Muppet bit and people not only think I'm crazy, but don't believe it's a real thing. Don't argue with me about cheesecake related things. Cheesecake is the pie of cakes. Don't at me.

Did You Know: silt striders serve to make the fast travel locations more visible and perform no other function from a game mechanics standpoint?

they don't send you anywhere, the person standing next to them does. you cannot interact with them at all. just a giant building sized vibe, incredible

Worthwhile noting
CAF is on its biggest recruitment drive in 20 years AND there is now a $50k recruiting allowance for many technical positions

I am no fan of military buildups but hey if you need a job you could do worse. Many in my husband's fam serve and they like it.

Here are the cover illustrations I did for the special @illumicrate.bsky.social edition of VENGEFUL by V. E. Schwab!

This is the combined version of the acetate dust jacket (with the characters) and the case cover (with the city). I posted the cover for Vicious on a separate post.

For your own sanity:
It is perfectly okay to dip out and come back to the fight again later. If you need permission, consider this permission. Go recharge and come back ready to jump back in. But not until you really are ready.

But eventually we do need all hands on deck in whatever way you're able
