The sabotage manual going around has the right idea, which is fuck these shitheads up.

But there have been a lot of changes in technology since then. Get creative, there weren't even personal computers in the 40's. We need a modern playbook. (But ffs, don't publish it online. Pass a copy person to person, ppl you trust.) Don't telegraph your punch.

Also, remember that you're being surveilled. Ppl in the 40's wouldn't have put up with the level of shit we've been eased into.

It is tiring how many irl conversations about ai do not mention the energy and water situation. All of them, in my experience. I am committed to bringing it up in every single conversation.

Part of white power is the ability to look at each other and pretend that we can't do anything to improve conditions.

Wp thought we could mock our way out of centuries of murderous culture. But no, we are going to have to do this the hard way, by admitting how willing we are to be compliant. (Find it in yourself. That's a way out of this mess.)

Hey everyone, I am a broken record right now.

But you're seeing the murderous intent, right?

Starve these fuckers.

Do not buy shit unless you can't do without it. Find local artisans and food sellers and give them your money. Drive less. Carpool. Mutual aid.

We probably won't be able to make a big dent. But we will be able to look at each other and know we hate these assholes and are figuring out how to throw sand in their gears.

We have power. Act like it.

Hi friends, are there any translation apps that aren't a privacy nightmare?

Spanish is my current need.

I honestly believe that a chunk of the anti-trans hate is a way for fascist christians to project the fear and rage of the experience of living in communities that do not address rampant sexual abuse and rape.

It isn't acceptable, I am not making an excuse. I wish those bastards would take some responsibility for themselves.

I grew up in one of those communities and I have seen the abuse firsthand. The patriarchal hierarchy is an important part of how the abuse happens because women and children are lower status, so they don't get to have bodily autonomy.

I am certain this has already been discussed. Just. Ffs. I'm having some feelings.

I was wrong, they don't have housing assistance. Both of them are section 8 eligible.

Does anyone have a guide for getting a Section 8 voucher? I did a web search but it is turning up nothing helpful.

Hey, I have an ex family member living in Ventura county, they're in low income housing and they're an IHSS caregiver.

But they're flat broke and I can't find any mutual aid groups to direct them to online. Does anyone have suggestions?

Ppl are talking about sabotage by slowing work down. And tech companies are normalizing layoffs for performance at the same time they're hiring new workers.

What if the chance for sabotage is a small window where we should be shutting shit down right now?

Right now.

Hello fellow ppl who struggle with making food that you can stand. Do you have easy things to make that are tasty and perhaps with denser nutrients than a bag of potato chips? Because we need a little help over here.

We make breakfast for dinner possibly too much because Some of us are tired of that. Also not too many steps. We make rice bowls a fair amount too. But... nothing sounds good.

Anyway, if nothing else thank you for reading this and I hope your day is being kind to you.

Oh, lactose intolerance or we'd be making lasagna and cream soups and eating so much soft cheese and fruit.

Bobby Bradford lost his home and all his instruments in the Altadena fire. He and his wife got out safely but lost all their possessions. Here's a go fund me for them, organized by a collaborator.

I've heard (seen examples, believe) that in the US, municipal emergency planning doesn't encompass the needs of differently abled people.

Does anyone know who is working on this? Are there visible mutual aid groups working on this? Are there first responder teams working on this?

Is there a location somewhere in the world that is competent at this?

Questions in memory of Anthony and Justin Mitchell.

Okay why are we sympathizing with insurers though?

Be mad that governments haven't taken responsibility for climate change. Whatever. But shareholder profit shouldn't come into the picture.

Fascists have overrun the Huntington Beach city council. They have undermined the 1996 human rights policy that was put in place in response to skinhead violence.

A library book ban was voted in. A group of people have petitioned to put a repeal on the next ballot and they are holding weekly protest/educational events at the Main Street library.
