Free Turtle Island, stop associating with the concept of the US. Stay you live on “Occupied ____ peoples land” or Occupied Turtle Island.

A lot of climate erosion is made possible by labeling land defenders as terrorists and deeply criminalizing activity to preserve the earth. Everyday ppl are robbed of their imagination. we have to stop being like “this is terrible” and start sabotaging.

kind of obsessed with 2025 pride merch...I'm calling it cowardcore.
abercrombie and fitch 'pride mid rise jorts' which are literally just jorts with a rainbow tag inside the pant.abercrombie & fitch 'pride long sleeved striped button up shirt' that is...a green and white striped shirt. hello am I going crazy.beige terrycloth shorts from target. nothing about them indicates pride except that they are listed as such on the website.levi's 'pride icon' skirt which is literally just a short dark denim skirt. nothing to indicate 'pride' except that there is one image of a male model wearing it which technically you could do with any item of clothing but go off I guess

What are the steps to Unionize/Collectivize your work, living and creative lives? There is no mass action without a network of collectives working in tandem.

With a negative -$2.00 in my acct, no direct action affinity group, and no nation sized army, the calls for help at gaza really making me feel useless. sure i can do art builds and creative interventions but the shit livestreamed- what more images do people need??

Death to the colonial era of punishing the African diaspora for being steadfast in freeing themselves. From Haiti, to Oakland, to New Orleans. Bring on the revolutionary Free Black Republic. The land wants this just as much as she wants to return to her first stewards.

Sinners is a 5/10 for me. So many amazing storytelling elements that were fumbled by script. It was too digitally enhanced/ CGI and likely AI use. It left me craving the story as a 2D animation or like a warm 1990s film quality. I dont need live action if it feels plastic. 😵‍💫

With Lent now over, and Christians able to resume their vices, churches throughout the country are now pivoting from a Target fast into a full-on boycott of the retailer. “Forty days is not the end, it’s the benchmark."

Target Boycott Extended Indefinitely
Church leaders started the boycott for Lent — but now, they say, there’s no end in sight.

I also think how often adults kill their inner Teen in favor of being able to handle being exploited by capitalism. The mentally clearest era of understanding of the bullshit of the adult world should NEVER leave your spirit. Such a lost for you and Youth today.

Authoritarianism has its roots in dominate Parenting. People are chumps bc their parents instilled cowardliness in them. If you had a shitty Father that you did everything to please-you as an adult is likely to fall over and take it from the State today.

As a wetland lover, “Drain the Swamp” is bad phrase for talking about eradicating yt supremacy. Actually draining the swamp is a violent and a labor historically done by kidnapped enslaved Africans. The swamps are not “wrong” for being flooded- forced terraforming for the settler class is.

I’m coming up on a year of not finding supportive work since I graduated. I would already left the Bay if It wasn’t for my partnership.The fact yall keep promoting southern Queers to move here is misinformed. I would seriously move back tomorrow but cannot handle being heartbroken either.

More than 2 million oil and gas wells sit unplugged in the U.S., many leaking contaminants into waterways, farmland and neighborhoods. Time and time again, oil companies have walked away — leaving taxpayers to pay for cleanup. Here’s how. (Published Dec. 2024)

Oil executive Tom Ragsdale walked away from his old wells, making the pollution left behind the state of New Mexico’s problem. His tactics, however, are ubiquitous in the industry.

Why is there no popular online platform for Art? We had deviantArt, then Tumblr. I have a tumblr now now but friends arent returning. Now IG is crap but everyone is still on it and artists are tied if we wanna be seen.

Plastics are the largest waste of Oil and Gas. We live in a reality that an aggressive force is used on the planet, just to make the bag for your bread. Plastics is also oil and gas back up plan- we currently cannot eat without contributing to this issue.

Whats wild about Oil worshippers is that the fact companies WASTE the product all the time. Refinery flares burning LNG is commonplace to keep the prices from falling. Crickets are left to rot all throughout the Southwest. If we used all the oil we produce, it’d be dirt cheap.

It feels like 3D forms, Photography, Performance and/or Video are the primary categories of art it feels Art Residences and funding really care about in the 2020s. Drawing and Painting is limited to the taste of the Jurors.

Pikachu played an important role in the Chilean uprising of 2019. “Tia Pikachu” became an icon of the protests in Plaza Dignidad and ultimately won a seat in the constitutional convention. Now Pikachu can be seen in the streets of Turkey, resisting the despotic regime of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.

We keep being mad at the master, but not the overseerer. Overseerers are in our grocery stores, public spaces, everyday lives. The one that actually enforce, the ones that love their fucking wage and class more than human rights. Its the Joe Schmo that we can actually fight

We are still in the pandemic, right now. The phrase you are looking for to describe 2020 is "early in the ongoing pandemic". The phrase you are looking for to describe 2021 is "earlier in the ongoing pandemic".

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.
