Give a man a fish and someone with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about people getting free handouts. Teach a man to fish? Yeah, that person with a thousand fishes is going to bitch about that too.

It doesn’t make more aggressive forms of protest and resistance less effective. It makes them more effective. It can raise public tolerance for protest, introduces new people to acts of resistance, and lay the groundwork for larger networks of solidarity.

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

I have written and deleted a lot of posts but I keep thinking about how the brutal assassination of Minnesota State senator Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark, and their beloved dog Gilbert in June did not prompt this same level of calls for empathy, sympathy, and flags at half-mast.

Wildflower had a large layoff today, I don't know exactly how many but it's a good chunk of the studio. I am one of those that lost their jobs today. I'm gonna take a few days to settle and then I'll be looking for something new. I'd appreciate any leads you might here about!

Look, you can say a lot about Hogan's legacy: he was racist, he was terrible to his colleagues, he put himself above other people, he firmly believed in the supremacy of white people, he was a bad wrestler, his life was a net negative for society.

That's it. That's the post.

an underappreciated skill in game design is "lying to players." games only exist in a player's mind!! you can change the nature of the game without changing its core logic by just telling players that the logic is something different!!

Hi hey hello — if you’ve publicly stated you’re going to a protest, delete it.

Don’t post where you’ll be.
Don’t sign up for things.

Just go.
Don’t say a damn thing.

ESPECIALLY if you’re planning on doing anything tomorrow — please keep yourself safe.

David Graeber said this in 2012 about protests in New York City.

Though this is increasingly what is happening this week in Los Angeles.

This passed 215-214. We're going to lose our healthcare because 3 senior Dems have died this year. We lost Roe because Ginsburg didn't retire. We lost the election because Joe ran for reelection.

Our country is being destroyed because geriatric Dems can't retire and let go of power.
The Republican-passed “big beautiful bill” takes away health insurance coverage from ALL transgender people, regardless of age.
