hi all, the minnesota freedom fund (which afaict is getting a lot of the donation traffic) has recommended also donating to reclaim the block (t.co/RfymLGhVc2) and black visions collective (t.co/7L4oV1LKtz), both of them local mutual aid organizations

if you're in the same boat as me (i.e. getting a paycheck from a tech job today) consider whether you've got the resources to keep giving, including if you've already made a donation

here's the tweet where they request this btw: twitter.com/MNFreedomFund/stat

reminder from your local pacifist: “violence against inanimate objects” is a fake idea perpetuated by white supremacist patriarchy to cast aspersions on activists and protesters

there is not a pane of glass on this planet more important than your civil rights

If your non-violent protest didn't face violent attempts by police to disperse it and it then wasn't characterised as a violent mob by the media, were you even making a difference?

I don't really have a solution because I believe in violent revolution but the reality is they will take your actions out on us.

i wonder how different the world would be if c had had a package manager from the beginning

one cool thing the bourgeoisie does not want you to know 

political violence is sometimes morally justified and tactically good actually

White people cause majority of the destruction during protests against injustice when black lives are taken. White people smash windows. White people set fires. And some of those agitators are cops.

When the cops retaliate (and they will) black lives will be at risk because white people don't know how to protest without putting black lives at risk.

And obviously some agitators are cops inciting violence to make their later retaliation justified.

this MLK day, consider actually giving Letter from a Birmingham Jail a read. It's not long, and MLK criminally gets mostly digested through trite soundbites and quotrs. His thoughts deserve to be read and understood in full.

Physicist: I'm currently trying to figure out if parallel universes are real.
Philosopher: they are. Now I'm currently trying to figure out if chairs are real.

tell a 5yo that there’s more than enough empty houses for every homeless person and they’ll come up with a workable solution almost immediately

pandemic • mask information and resources thread 

I've found a lot of information about masks, why you should wear one, and how to make them.

It's all worth sharing, so I'm making a thread of it here to keep track of things.

So you're saying that a country whose leader lives in a place called the "white house" has a problem with white supremacy?

I forgot how many times Aang gets in trouble and then starts hamboning
