jk I'm all about that bread @danishcookies@computerfairi.es

Throwback to when this white lady gave me free money in the grocery store because she saw me buying frozen food and soda.

I took the money lol but...

Bitch I'm not buying this shit cuz I'm poor I'm buying this shit cuz I'm lazy.

all these news stories that keep coming up about the government shutdown fail to show that the shutdown disproportionately affects *working class people* who rely on government aid

you know what kind of aid can't be shut down at the whim of the ruling class? community mutual aid

replace your government today!

basically: help someone who you're not expected to help

- read some books on capitalism, colonialism, history of your area, ideally with someone else
- volunteer at a shelter for houseless people. especially if you have the privilege, consider bullying anyone in an administrative role that's acting like people in the shelter aren't human beings
- that friend of yours that's really struggling to get by? bring them dinner the night they work late
- go to a training on opiate overdose response, get some narcan and learn how to use it

"hi io, I want to try this mutual aid stuff but don't know how"

- find a local chapter of food not bombs, or start one
- join a solidarity union (IWW is good in us/can) and take on some tasks
- talk to people while you're waiting for the bus
- (techies) find or start a repair cafe
- (spiritual people) find a church doing good community work and help, as long as they aren't proselytizing at the same time
- babysit for your radical friends with kids so your friends can do stuff

If the Paris Commune is so great, why isn't there a Paris Commune part tw-

Whenever I think mine has gotten over herself, she finds new ways to confound me. New levels of bitchiness.

pretty interesting that i get no boosts and faves because my "takes are bad" "nobody likes me" and i "need to log off." so much for the tolerant left

Well, @bryn ? How DO we become forest dryads?

Aha, Facebook has now closed another gate to those who don't have an account. Previously the pop-up that suggested to log-in or create an account gave the option to click on a "not now" button and continue browsing pages etc. It is no longer there...

2019 is gonna be the year we:
- write better image captions!
- use clearer content warnings!
- speak more positively about ourselves!
- call each other out gently on small mistakes!
- bring down two or more national governments!
- get better at setting, insisting on and respecting boundaries!

good vibes only this year ✨

damn young justice was really held back by cartoon network. they're upping how graphic the violence is on dc universe in a good way

pretty interesting that we've just come to accept that swatting is a thing. like its just normal that cops are fucking brainless instruments of doom that will blindly maim or kill anything you put in front of them

i would, elect pac man for president, but the fucking basterd would never be elected. he would eat the entire supreme court, and they would float around as eye balls until they return back to their chambers and reform as judges.

government propaganda on film and tv: SWAT teams are the most elite police units. they have trained for years to be able to strike with surgical precision

reality: woops we shot this random guy who got accidentally swatted a good 15 times in the chest because we gave him ten different contradictory things to do with his arms. we also shot his fucking dog lmao that was just for funsies
