Anchorage police officers will soon be able to automatically scan license plates and scour a network of public and private cameras throughout the city. www.adn.com/alaska-news/...

Rest in power, Assata Shakur. "A wall is just a wall and nothing more at all. It can be broken down. I believe in living I believe in birth I believe in the sweat of love and in the fire of truth. And i believe that a lost ship steered by tired, seasick sailors, can still be guided home to port."

Rest in power, Assata Shakur.

“It is our duty to fight for our freedom. It is our duty to win. We must love each other and support each other. We have nothing to lose but our chains.” Assata Shakur

Zines as First-Aid Beyond zines helping to “heal” folks from liberalism and assist them on the path toward anarchic well-being, zines are “first-aid” in a deeper sense. They’re often just the “medicine” needed to cope with a world that’s sick. @cindymilstein IG kolektiva.social/@cbmilstein/...

Wait, we have funders? Is my check in the mail or something?

No words. I believed in Ryan. We moved to Oklahoma because he promised that my awful sons Enigmus Rex and Pance would be given handguns in kindergarten and then not be given any instruction on how to use them safely. I bought a shitty gray house in Tulsa because he promised they wouldn't be woke.

Yep, this is exactly what I'd have expected. Great article from Ken.

WAKE THE FUCK UP BABE THEY'VE MANAGED TO SLOW THE PROGRESS OF HUNTINGTON'S BY 75%

My friend who was arrested for being queer in public in WV had his consultation with a lawyer and now has an idea of court and legal costs and needs to raise a bit more money. He's facing a year in prison for essentially "cop didn't like the look of him." www.gofundme.com/f/5d3hr-help...

I'm a big Movement Memos fan & at the end of each episode, @mskellymhayes.bsky.social reminds us, "Our best defense against cynicism is to do good and to remember that the good we do matters."

Reading You Weren't Meant to Be Human by @ajwhiteauthor.bsky.social & this bit made me laugh.

Solidarity signs are popping up in restaurants across Los Angeles. They're a simple but powerful way to say we know our rights and we've got each other's backs. To download your own solidarity sign and for more free Know Your Rights resources, head to ilrc.me/protect

My Customer Service Alter Ego was out in force today. I don't know who she is but she is fantastic with people so it's definitely *not* me. I need to give her name or something.

Spent the afternoon at the Egan Ctr volunteering at Project Homeless Connect w/ Anc Coalition to End Homelessness. This was a massive lift from everyone involved & everyone I've talked to says the # of folks who've come thru to connect w/ resources is unprecedented. #alaskasky

So? Are we stuck with the dipshits or are they getting beamed up?

Trump hyped a huge autism announcement for months then followed through today with a press conference where his brain leaked out of his ears for an hour while he couldn't pronounce "acetaminophen" and yelled "DON'T TAKE ASPIRIN" over and over. Congratulations, America.

Eat. Sleep. Exercise. Nurture the relationships that sustain you. Protect your health. Find joy. Don't mistake any of these for the resistance itself. Joy isn't resistance, neither is rest. But you need to be whole to resist for a lifetime.

What the fuck is happening anymore?

nice

You can spend today seeking a way to support and uplift the many marginalized groups that Kirk demonized and harmed.

Re-sharing this important episode with @miawong.bsky.social and @bishonentype.bsky.social about how billionaires like Elon Musk and far-Right trolls are pushing disinformation in an effort to manufacture a narrative around "trans terrorism." www.iheart.com/podcast/105-...

Forever reading books & wondering if it's speculative fiction or prophecy.

The Mutual Aid Network of Anchorage has put out an urgent call for funds. Let's help a neighbor stay housed! @anchoragemutualaid.bsky.social #alaskasky

ezra klein once again demonstrating that cis men are extremely eager to propose "solutions" to authoritarianism where everyone except them is subject to authoritarianism and they get to be the authorities

I don’t know how to talk to people in my mentions saying weird shit like this. I spent the evening dodging pepper balls fired by ICE and coughing on gas, bro. The police are well aware of the situation and probably jealous of the thugs who were attacking us.

Here is my fun new article about him suing the New York Times for a lot of money and the judge saying pls get the fuck outta my face with this shit and come back when you can act like you got some sense ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Please read about the terrible impact(s) of tear gas which is a weapon of WAR: issuu.com/projectnia/d...

Immediate blocks for anyone I see on here posting BE PEACEFUL while people are hit with tear gas and shot with rubber bullets.

You can condemn the heinous act of violence that killed Charlie Kirk without celebrating who he was. People are capable of holding two thoughts at the same time.

What we're seeing in the "don't sign up for protests" discourse is what Paulo Freire described as the convert's failure to trust the knowledge of the oppressed. As the convert tries to stand in solidarity with the oppressed, they refuse to let go of a world where they were the authority by default.

I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

People legit yelled at me for 24 hours when I said it's extremely dumb to RSVP to a protest. Why hand your name over to a group organizing a protest/rally? Do you *want* to have to talk to the FBI? Treat anyone encouraging you to RSVP to a protest as a fed. End of.

Pay attention to the media organisations who will report on Trump declaring antifa - which does not exist - as a terrorist organisation without explicitly saying what antifa stands for every time. They’d have to report that Trump is effectively declaring anti-fascism as an enemy ideology.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Proud to have contributed to this piece. It’s an antidote to the nonstop whitewashing by liberal punditry.

Heads up, Anchorage! The Mutual Aid Network of Anchorage is organizing a free market on Saturday September 28. Time & location TBD so save the date! If you have items for the market or a skill you'd like to share, reach out to MANA via their website: wearemana.org @anchoragemutualaid.bsky.social
