People living under fascism didn’t survive by giving up joy—they protected it.

They held onto the things fascism tried to erase: art, friendship, jokes, rituals, language, memory.

Not as escapism but as resistance. As proof they were still human.

Joy isn’t frivolous under fascism. It’s strategic.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.

We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

I bet it’s okay to eat a little bit of lava

To an asshole, all virtue is "virtue signaling."

The microplastics in my blood are telling me not to go to work today

Saw the aftermath of a five car pileup at a four way stop a few weeks ago. Still don't understand how that is possible.

With all of the rain lately comes lots of opportunities for time lapse photography. Check out my YouTube page!

Go home Chick Fil-A app . . . you're drunk.

Photo I took of the 2023 Annular Eclipse from Las Vegas using a point and shoot Canon camera, a tripod, and a pair of paper eclipse viewing glasses.
