Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.
A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with 
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands

Don't be left behind

Last call on this one! Mike and Erika are who I'd want helping me figure out my next move. They also won't blow smoke up your ass. Already laid off? Money tight? There's a code hiding in the event description.

Your city's plate readers already clocked your car on the way to the gym and work today. Might as well give them something new to look at before you head out to daycare pickup. Antiflock Action stickers are up now. There's shirts, buttons, and a wall flag too!

ANTIFLOCK ACTION Flair Sticker | Toe by Three
ANTIFLOCK ACTION on Flair Sticker – A spectre is haunting your neighborhood. Flock Safety sold your city council on the idea that a camera reading every license plate that drives by is a totally normal thing to bolt to a pole. It's not. So here's a shirt about it. The old Antifascist Action flags got swapped out for a couple of Flock cameras. Black one out front, red one in back.

Last night I got to tell Mike Watt, to his face, that the Minutemen and the Clash gave me my blueprint for how to live. Then I thanked him. He gave me a D. Boon sticker that says "punk is whatever we made it to be." 🥰

Hello! Earlier this week we launched our HOW TO VOTE/CÓMO VOTAR zine. (howtovote.tips) I really hope you use it to make some zines. I’m also happy to answer and questions you might have. And… I would really love to see some photos of the zines once you’ve made them. Also, fuck Ed Sheeran.

The zine is free to download and we encourage you to make as many as you want and spread them around to everyone you know. Leave copies on the bus, cafés, park benches, school, your breakroom, Ed Sheeran’s trailer, hand them to neighbors, etc. Each zine is in English and (flip it!) Spanish.

A neobank I used to use had this great feature: open their app while you're taking a phone call and an undismissible banner would take over the upper third. "We're not calling you. If someone says they're from [neobank], hang up." Honestly, every other bank should copy it.
