Also artistic efforts begun and maintained outside of the government will both strengthen communities and be resistant to the current defunding tactics.

I don't really care whether anarchism is effective on a large scale, I just think that an ethic of radical generosity, and a constant dedication towards increasing personal autonomy will always be necessary for a just society

To be clear I say this an anarchist don't ever think I'm anywhere near the right

Remember to check in on your Democrat friends today, needless to say this is a pretty rough anniversary for them 😞

I don't like playing Minecraft with keep inventory on because the experience of loss is inextricable from the human experience and I get bored with my video games if they don't inspire at least a little existential dread

Stop *reviewing* Ethel Cains music, just sit in the vat of emotions and experience her fucking essence

If anything can be learned from Nosferatu it's that real estate is the business of evil incarnate and getting mixed up in the purchase of land can only end in tragedy
