"I don’t think of the abolition of the state as a final destination; I think of it as one step – albeit a crucial step – along the path of combating coercion and domination, a struggle that may never be finally completed." -Roderick Long, @c4ssdotorg.bsky.social c4ss.org/content/51299

"The very existence of borders is one of the founding injustices of this world." - Leif J. c4ss.org/content/52324

Listening to @yourewrongabout.bsky.social on Yoko Ono and it’s said that John and Paul are basically divorced but staying together “for the kids” and my mind immediately pictures Ringo Starr in a onesie looking sad XD (ftr the “ringo songs” are actually my fave)

Hell they’ve been super active in northern Virginia and DC since 2015.

"While ICE is still able to make arrests, the number of people they have so far been able to grab is far lower than what they would have done if the community was slower to organize." - @mutual-a.bsky.social c4ss.org/content/60977

The Chomsky / Foucault debate hits different now we know both those fuckers are pedophiles…

How do people still not understand evolution? Like today I heard some podcasters I like and respect trying to defend evolution against ignorance and still somehow getting it so wrong. I guess we really can’t resist assigning a narrative? Wild.

Posting this book for nonparticular reason.

An administration of posters and livestreamers naturally view power through that literal lens: who controls the cameras supposedly controls everything. But the legal foundations of this shit go back to the SHAC-7, where filming animal abusers was ruled "terrorism." reason.com/2025/12/26/j...

I’ve been sick and thought I’d make sauerkraut soup to help the recovery process. Ended up with this hearty turmeric heavy stew 🤷‍♂️🤤

yes some of it the social dynamics of social media, but also there is a long history of leftists, going all the way back to Adorno at least, making the argument that qualitative reasoning is actually capitalist or even fascist here's robin mackay complaining about this tendency in the 2010s

I missed this story! Trump’s Labor Department admits a lack of immigrants spells catastrophic consequences for the nation’s food supply.

Compare and contrast ICE/CBP conduct in states with and without robust gun cultures.

Hey all, here's zine about how to do Jury Nullification canvassing and outreach. It's easy to just tell people they can acquit as jurors, but our goal should be to effectively reach the right people AND get them successfully selected as jurors. drive.google.com/file/d/1ENK2...

I wonder if all animals are kinda fascinated by fire or if it’s just humans and cats??

Underrated thing that's been flying under the radar: ICE's hiring spree, by necessity since there are so few others willing and able, has been hiring away local cops, which infuriates the departments by causing manpower problems and is, ironically, removing the worst of the worst from their ranks.

Never has there been a starker depiction of this meme than the last 96 hours.

Sometimes living through historic eras is just saying “yooooooo wtf” for the rest of your life. I don’t make the rules.

Older farm guy at work agreed with my prediction for the weather this winter 💪💕

The horrors persist, but so does my tiny herb garden 🪴 Basil, Rosemary, Dill & Chives.

I read a lot of (probably fake) “AITA” stories when I’m unable to sleep but too brain dead to actually focus on anything. Idk how it happened, Facebook just started showing me a bunch and the light, fake gossip is perfect for my half asleep brain. Anyway, no one seems to get the assignment.

Still can’t get over the use of Kiplings “Boots” in 28 Years Later. Like fuck Kiplings colonizer ass, but that was fucken powerful.

Ok, but if ChatGPT is going write articles, don't we need those copy editors that were fired even more so

My coworkers keep getting suddenly concerned bc they can “smell smoke” and I don’t think I can figure out another way to say “yeah that’s because of all the smoke.” Tbf I keep thinking “why is my throat burning, I’m smoking fewer cigs than usual.” And then I remember…

"The increasing prevalence of black & grey market activities, evidenced by the clandestine flow of goods & financial support being smuggled from neighboring countries like Thailand, underscores a burgeoning grassroots economic resistance." - Hein Htet Kyaw c4ss.org/content/60519

Lost power and I’m ngl I love that this happens every couple of months here. I’m having the most relaxed night in a while. Can’t put on my shows. Ate a basic dinner. Broken out of my shitty depressing routines. Just vibing by candle light and feeling no pressure to get anything done post-shift.

Languages are so weird. I’m getting some of my German back by learning Irish XD Because when my brain doesn’t know something in Irish yet, it reaches for “non English way to say this” and the German is just there!

Everything sucks and the world is grinding me down. But the local radio plays a fish report from a general store. Also just got trolled by the “snow forecast” Facebook group with a “lol of course no snow tomorrow” post. What does it say about the climate that I had to check?

Did a camping for the weekend. Met rescued bears. My wife insisted on anime posing next to “bussy” on the falls. She also caught 2 fish to my NONE. 10/10 weekend.

Sorry if I’ve cracked y’all but yes I’m preparing for WWIII by getting my fairy house in order. I do feel slightly safer! (This post is about self care in the form of engaging with hobbies to avoid burnout :PP But also my literal belief in magic which you can pry from cold dead mystical hands :) )

First warm day of the year! Yes I got sunburned. XD

I just finally got to watch Fréwaka! It’s on Shudder now. Holy shit. I have so many thoughts but the only one that feels safe to share right now is: I recognized a lot of Irish phrases and feel good about my progress with the language.

ICE will be ramping up its activity in Philadelphia, Seattle, NYC, Chicago, and Northern Virginia. Stay the fuck out of Philly!!

"We have seen our lives and rights get trampled on time and time again, despite promises from progressives. We need those who consider themselves allies to help us strike at the root. Trans justice requires radical change." - @mchugh-alex.bsky.social c4ss.org/content/51405

Weird fucken day. Saw a huge power hub explode for seemingly no reason ?? On my drive home. Initially braked bc car instincts and then realized actually I better gun it bc I don’t want to be close to a huge electrical fire? Missed my turn. Back roads. Saw a porcupine and almost ran out of gas XD

A lot of systems we take for granted are breaking down. This is not necessarily directly attributable to any particular policy. It’s what I call “the squeeze.” General economic contraction and reduction in the availability of necessary resources makes even the simplest things difficult.

Just drove home thru the wildest storm omg. Y’all ever seen THICK FOG *with* heavy rain?? Constant lightning. All kinds of colors. Looked like daylight. I guess it’s down to cold enough ground level air??

No matter what this Administration tells the American people, the law is very clear: Members of Congress have a legal right to enter any DHS detention facility to conduct oversight without prior notice - something I’ve done twice this year without issue.

Rough week. But I cleaned the house and then took myself out to eat XD Getting beef to do burgers on the fire pit later 🔥

Songs that still slap: youtu.be/PR_AKKuo2xc?...

Okay I guess we’re at kidnapping mayors now…

Uuuh.
