Feel like discussion on social media sites would be more useful/less openly hostile if every post had a minimum word requirement (say that of a short essay) as opposed to a character limit, if only for the fact that by the time you write all those words you realize its better to not post at all.

There is this hole that one approaches as they struggle to really analyze the world around them for it is, and as they begin to question what it is they might actually desire and contend with contradictions between the two.

"Fairy Dust and Toxic Waste" now on the library for easier access/reading: theanarchistlibrary.org/library/igna...

Wild that the engineer would think attacks on data centers are "incoherent" despite those data centers actively harming anyone living near them (see consequences of constant noise pollution, breathing diesel exhaust, having your energy bill shoot up, water getting rerouted etc).

I've tabled long enough and often enough to know when I'm having an antagonistic conversation with someone who genuinely likes the way the world is. I typically tell those people they're boring and I'm not interested in talking, which rarely goes over smoothly, but is quite enjoyable.

This fawning over a militaristic pursuit (yes, "scientific" pursuits are often militaristic), carried out by military personnel is why "Don't Let them Leave" remains an ever necessary slogan.

an overlooked aspect of this is that Le Guin's parents were professional anthropologists who worked closely with Franz Boer, undoubtedly agents of the last stages of colonialism in the 20th century in North America

As much as I appreciate Parable of the Sower and The Dispossessed, can't help but feel that they're, in part, responsible for the radical defensiveness of space colonisation as a noble (or even necessary) pursuit.

Every other sociopathic tech CEO stoked about the Sam Altman piece so people once again have a singular antagonist on whom to pin the horrors of LLMs, giving all others cover to continue doing whatever fuckshit they desire.

That was the furthest that a human who invaded and occupied Iraq has ever been from Earth.

"Fairy Dust and Toxic Waste" New zine that came about from the desire to have a critique of "AI" to table that goes beyond the surface level environmental impact. Take a look and let me know what you think. Please share anywhere/with anyone who might find it useful: cryptpad.fr/file/#/2/fil...

The more the Earth is made unlivable the more people will engage in space fantasies to avoid dealing with it.

Happy Birthday to Lorenzo Kom’boa Ervin, who is currently raising money for dental work, which you can donate to here. He’s had three bad teeth pulled in the past month. fundrazr.com/campaigns/52...

for no reason whatsoever, currently looking for anarchist & anti-state communist critiques of liberal/leftist populism. plz submit suggestions in the comments!!

W4G showing their ass by claiming anyone who criticises them (or those they support) is a zionist is hopefully giving folks some pause to reflect on Casey's critique of them that came out a while ago and how quickly many were to dismiss it.

Every time I table, at an event or a demo or just in public, the most worthwhile interactions come from sharing my beliefs in earnest, with no intention to recruit or pander, and allowing others to do with those beliefs what they will.

Got into an argument while tabling once about how Armed Joy is much more a critique of work than it is an "everyone needs to buy a gun" essay. Person was frustrated that I was implying Bonanno was a communist. I just stared blankly. Part of why I rarely table AJ now despite it being a favorite.

"When you resist the death machines, no matter how tall the shadows around you and how far from others you feel, you may be alone, but you are also with all of us who resist.

Struggling to fit "No war but the all encompassing, entirely uncompromising, social war against the totality of reproductive mechanisms maintaining (and expanding) every apparatus of capture, dehumanization, and social death, named or otherwise" on a flashy banner.

Putting my zines where my mouth is

Court rooms have only ever been locations of capture, of humiliation, and of violence wielded by the state against those deemed in opposition to the functioning of that state. Ever person marched in front of a judge suffers for it. Every courthouse, like every prison, into the fucking ocean.

Support for the Prairieland homies doesn't stop.

Can’t help but think about how much of that case woulda been a wash if those five fucking rats woulda not cooperated

We have a verdict and we are heartbroken at the results. This is only the beginning. We will continue to fight the remaining charges until every defendant is home.

Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas. "He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger." www.bbc.com/news/article...

There’s been a shocking regression over the last several years about what it means to talk to and cooperate with the state. At one time it seemed like a given that you keep your mouth shut and take the time but there’s now several instances indicating it no longer being the case.

grief as rupture. love as attack.

death by medical neglect in a concentration camp is state murder. emmanuel damas was tortured & killed by the state.

Also if anyone has a zine version of "The Gulf War did not Take Place" I'd appreciate that.

Looking for new (or new to me) zines to table. Drop a link to what you've been reading or returning to that has felt worthwhile in this moment!

Emmanuel Damas, 56, died in ICE custody on Monday. Damas came to the U.S. from Haiti seeking asylum. After six months in ICE custody—the last four at CoreCivic's Florence Correctional Center—he died from complications from a tooth infection. A tooth infection. 1/3 tucson.com/news/local/b...

Share your favorite graphics, banner slogans, flyers, graffiti, etc. Itching for new (to me) confidential shit to table/see around town.

Please share any good "Fuck the Troops" flyers, posters, stickers, etc. Imminently adding to the distro table selection

Slapping up some of my art stickers throughout town.

Im seeing reports in the 80s now. Please stop what you’re doing and take time to sit with these lost of life. These were someone’s babies and love and hope and futures. They had dreams. This is not just a news cycle. We need to feel the grief of these deaths.

Update from Lorenzo- he was able to get his problem teeth pulled. Final push for his fundraiser for implants. fundrazr.com/stories/fN2z...

nurul amin shah alam was murdered by CBP & BPD.

Can anyone help? I'm barely keeping my head above the water and I really need help covering my phone bill which includes regular service and the hot spot service that keeps me connected. I have Cashapp $p3dreezy Venmo @p3dreezy or Zelle (DM for phone #). Any shares are greatly appreciated.

The Prairieland defendants were told by marshals that "if they cry in court they will be removed from the courtroom because it makes the judge angry," Amber Lowrey told me.

No electronics are allowed in the courthouse and no one is allowed to enter or exit the courthouse except on recess, so we are passing written court notes outside as we can and transcribing them. Full notes and synopses can be found at prairielanddefendants.com
