Trump wants to rename Lake Ontario: "Lake America." Somehow this is perfect: Instead of schoolkids learning the Great Lakes' names via the acronym HOMES, they can now use SHAME.

GENERAL STRIKE! (new song, 2 minutes) From my perspective, that’s what this country/system has needed for way too long; but now, before it’s too late… youtu.be/r22jubi_l9A #ProtestSongs #SingerSongwriter #MusicSky #GeneralStrike

National Geographic headline yesterday: "The average attention span has shrunk to roughly 40 seconds." I'm waiting for Trump to boast about having slashed his own 10-second attention span by 1500%.

This war is illegal, immoral, and could be disastrous on a level that’s even hard to comprehend. It’s a copy of the Iraq War with even more combustible conditions. If Trump pushes us into this war we must engage in mass collective action to stop it. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/no-war-avo...

From 'The Great Dictator': it hurts to realize how far this stirring 4-minute speech is from our reality... 85 years later. (Context: Chaplin as Jewish-ghetto barber as Hitleresque dictator, turning fascist conquest on its head; music from other film added to clip.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=w8Hd...

confession: i started out with kill it, kill it! when i saw a spider. then i evolved to: take it outside. and this morning: how did you get here little guy? and my motto now:

mercy after nikki giovanni:
she asks me to kill the spider.
instead, i get the most
peaceful weapons i can find.
i take a cup and a napkin.
i catch the spider, put it outside
and allow it to walk away.
if i'm ever caught in the wrong place

at the wrong time, just being alive
and not bothering anyone,
i hope i'm greeted
with the same kind
of mercy.

It’s time to start wrapping our heads around the real possibility that collective action and even a general strike are required. Musk is working fast to solidify control, do as much damage as possible, and party “opposition” is not up to the fight. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/collective...

Collective Action is the Way Out

Like it or not, the fight is here. And it's time to start fighting.
