I'm fucking proud of my little bro in Minneapolis. He's getting connected with people in his neighborhood, he's 3D printing whistles to hand out, he's volunteering to do shifts protecting potential ICE targets, he's sharing information about what's happening in his city.
This is what I mean when I say "when the opportunity comes to be of use, take it." The opportunity will come. Prepare yourself, connect with others, & be ready. And if you're called up, actually fucking get out there & try.
@artemis And, until then, contact your legislators daily and keep the pressure on. Let them know you want them to represent YOU!

That's a bro worth taking pride in.
Credit to your momma. I am sure it's not an accident she raised two kids right.

It's a two-sided thing: you should use your abilities (and your *privilege*) to help. You should be willing to take personal risks for the sake of others.
But we all have different abilities & we are all are in different circumstances.
For instance, if you've got kids at home or elderly or disabled folks who depend on you, your risk calculus is significantly different than mine.
Basically, don't be a fucking coward & shirk your responsibility to others, but that looks different for all of us.
You have valuable work to do. You have contributions to make.
Sometimes that's being on the streets right in the face of the Feds.
Sometimes that's taking care of the people you have responsibilities towards.
Sometimes that's fucking surviving for another day.
You are here. You are part of this. We need you, we appreciate you, we love you. You are not useless. You are not alone.

If you are not keeping awake & aware & looking for how you can help resist, you need to start.
If you are awake & aware but feel unsure of what you should be doing: that's great! You are on the path. Keep learning from others, keep looking for opportunity. Evaluate your strengths & look for ways to use them. Share good info.
You will learn, you will grow, you will help.

You are right. It's not a mistake. We learned from her to care about truth & stand up for it & for others. She's a real one. -
I'm not saying there isn't work you can be doing now. There is. There is plenty of work to be done.
But if you feel guilty because you aren't "on the front lines," your chance will come. It's tyranny, you will be given reason & opportunity. Build up your community, care for your people, & do what you can to support other communities in the ways that you can.
@artemis thank you for this for a bunch of reasons I have stepped back from Frontline work
One of them is disability and I feel like even that isn't a very good excuse right now to do nothing
But reading through this thread reminded me of The stuff in the back of my head that I tend to ignore, that I rarely open my mouth to another person outside of my apartment without spreading some sort of anti-fascist message, I'm always looking for and trying to find ways to build community and be supportive I'm not saying this as a bragging thing I'm just saying not getting out on the streets for me right now is making me feel bad and your thread help me feel better by reminding me of the other stuff

I know you're not bragging, but I'm fucking proud of you too. You are in the resistance! -

If she just had one, it could be a fluke. Two though, that's credit to her for sure.
Tell her she's seen. Mommas don't hear that enough.

@artemis thanks for sharing all of this! It shows that people can do *something*. And he's putting himself in potential danger to protect other people. He should be proud.
Tell him random people on the Internet are proud of him!

I am passing on your words of encouragement to my bro & asking him to share that encouragement with others.
If you want to let the people on the ground in Minneapolis know that you see them, you are proud of them, & you support them, it would probably help them to know that the word is getting out even when it's not on the news & that people fucking CARE about what's happening.
I'll pass on your encouragement (without identifying information like usernames).

@artemis oh absolutely. Tell him on behalf of myself, my son and my son's teacher, who was kidnapped after working at the college for over twenty years, we're eternally grateful. Tell him there's a lot of us out here trying to get the images and videos they're taking in front of more eyeballs, and that there really are people in the heartland who are behind them and not the fascists.

@artemis I'm proud of every person standing up in Minnesota. Hearing and seeing what they are doing isn't just helping their community, it's helping the country. It's heroic and is showing the rest of us what we must do and be prepared to do when dealing with the fascists.

@artemis what you (all of you) are doing is most definitely making a difference. this administration expected people to approve of what they're doing, or at least stay out of it, and the resistance is proving them deeply wrong. thank you, thank you, thank you, I'm sorry you have to do this, I'm sorry the boot is on your neck, thank you so much for pushing back.

purtroppo non emulata dalla seconda fase, iniziata negli anni 80

Alejandro Jodorowsky L’amore adulto
L’amore adulto non si cerca.
Non c’è.
Non lo compri.
Non si conquista.
L’amore adulto cresce e si espande tra due cuori presenti e disponibili.
Ecco un evento magico.
Due persone disponibili
non si trovano per necessità.
Non vengono a coprire nessun posto vacante.
Non sostituiscono nessuno.
Non prendono il posto di qualcuno che c’era prima.
Due anime disponibili si guardano con rispetto e si dicono:
“Tu con te e poi con me. Io con me e poi con te.”

@Em0nM4stodon I don't know whether it's the best but my favorite such setup is a System76 Merkaat with Linux Mint Cinnamon:

These days I would probably go with a Tuxedo device though.
