Sweeps are violence and it really is that simple. If you live in Portland and have a heart in your body please take the time to testify in person/zoom tomorrow or in writing and ask our city council to reroute money away from sweeps, which do not reduce homelessness. www.portland.gov/council-cler...

Don't forget that your homeless neighbors, the people living in the streets & out of their cars around you that you see every day, are part of your real world community.

Luckily, Sinclair has a helpful database of all their stations, so you can see if they're operating in your area and respond accordingly.

my city has some serious fucking flaws, starting with its frankly disturbing level of whiteness and moving on from there (largely the obvious sequelae of that), but our anarchism streak is not one of them.

All I think about when I hear people say that it’s bad taste to dance on Hulk Hogan’s grave is that Emmett Till’s monument had to be replaced with a 500lb steel bulletproof monument because white people simply won’t stop riddling it with bullets. So now it just has tons of dents. From bullets.

@jortsthecat.bsky.social is 100% correct.
“Hey, you, over there, go on strike!” is NOT leadership, it’s not strategy, it’s not solidarity.
It’s the height of arrogance to think you know better than the workers themselves. Follow their lead. Support them.

I have seen some influencer accounts calling for various types of workers to go on strike, or suggesting a boycott the workers have not asked for.
Don’t do that. Listen to the workers

Antifascist actions you can take *right now*:
-wear a mask (any mask! three layer cloth, n-95, kn-94, hell even surgical is better than nothing), in the grocery store, mass transit, and medical settings, at least.

In 2000, John Waters donated 372 pieces of his art collection to the Baltimore Museum of Art. They named a rotunda after him in their gallery. He requested an all-gender restroom be named for him instead. #BOTD
