It pisses me the fuck off that yoga is actually ancient and really good for you. Part of me still feels like it was invented to extract wealth from white socal moms.

three FOUR anarchy accounts, that all post nothing but antifa memes, followed me in less than 24 hours. And like, idc, but nothing has ever given me stronger "waving to the FBI agent surveilling me" vibes. four antifa-bot accounts? you want me so bad it's embarrassing.

Making Tide Pools

Maryanne likes the sound and feel of moving water, warm, fresh water especially. It helps her be at ease.

But here's the thing though: on the day my mother died, I heard something funny and I laughed. It was a day of horror, made more horrible by the squalidness of her death, but I heard something funny. Nothing waits its turn: horror, sadness, joy, fear, pride. It all comes loudly tumbling over each other like puppies crowding through a pet door. There's no right time for any of it. It just happens.
I will never get over how weird it feels to have tragic and emotional chapters of your life where you just also still go to work, and the grocery store, and see funny videos online all while feeling such paralyzing fear and heartache
life just goes on no matter what

Why do we say that capitalism must be “dismantled”?
You’ll hear phrases like “Smash the state!” “Eat the rich!” and “Smash capitalism!”
And, yes, of course, but… :)
However relevant those sayings are, our work must be careful, highly organized and above all planned.
Because capitalism and all of its associated systems are not discrete, abstracted entities we can attack independently.
It is a structure, like a complicated machine with many thousands of working parts…
And right now it is connected to absolutely everything.
If we do this… [picks up huge hammer and smashes the machine]
Then a lot of vulnerable people will die.
The machine was built and improved and redesigned and patched over the course of generations. It is very good at its intended purpose, which is ultimately to generate profit.
Every human being alive today relies on the byproducts of the machine to survive, without exception.
The machine’s engineers want it to keep working like it does. In fact, they want to optimise it.
That will kill all remaining life on Earth.
So, we must destroy the machine, quickly and carefully
We must examine its deadly programs and mechanics and replace them with alternatives we built together.
The engineers don’t want us tampering with the machine.
However, we make it run…
So we can make it STOP. Together.
How will YOU help us to safely dismantle the machine?

Boarding The Street Car
“The bell of the trolley finally tolled to announce its arrival and Joe steeled himself for the worst part: the stampede of moving feet. There was no sure-fire way to board a streetcar without getting stomped to death.”
Based on @fireflywritesgt ch15 of taolaw: In the Warmth of the Window

G/t Idea: sanctuary for critically endangered tols/smols.
Like take for example that line from the Ghibli Arietty film about how the Clocks may be the last of their kind. What if that was true?
What if humans realized that tinies existed, but there's only a few hundred of them left at all? In an effort to protect them from dying out entirely, scientists put up nature reserves for them, devoid of any predators and heavily observed 24/7, to monitor the species and garantee its survival.
What if the tinies didn't even know that? They know about the fence and that rarely, giants walk through their territory, but they know to hide from them. The elders tell of a time when they had been captured by the giants, but through their cleverness and wit, they managed to escape into this safe valley. Some however, are cynical. They claim that this place they call home is no safe haven but instead a prison!
The same can also be true for giants. Their safe space would probably be an entire valley, with huge, fortified walls all around it. Signs on the outside read "Giant sanctuary - entry prohibited" and a lot of other warnings. The scientists would have to be very careful not to be spotted - not that giants are ultraviolent brutes, but one must be careful with creatures several times ones own size.
And it is important for the humans to not let the giants/tinies know about the sanctuary, since they want to preserve the species' culture and behaviour with as little human meddling as possible.
But what would happen if a giant would ever spot a human? If a tiny revealed the secret behind their safe haven? What would their reaction be? Tell all their family members? Try to escape? Despair? Maybe even befriend their keepers?
But what about the humans? Do they maybe have different goals other than species preservation? What's the opinion of the public of funding such projects? Are there documentaries about them?
