I'm not trying to change the world. I'm trying to hospice communities of people through decline and collapse. Sometimes, that means fighting fascists so we can die as individuals and a species, literally and metaphorically, with as much dignity and equanimity as possible.
Years of being a Satanist have taught me that if people want to call you something as a negative, leaning into it is one of the most powerful things you can do. Want to call my "diabolical" for how I live my life as a queer anarchist? Ok. Now I'm a Satanic priestess who devil-pills others.
Fascists introducing legislation to brandish anti-fascists as terrorists.

We are entering some very dangerous territory.

“We shed as we pick up, like travelers who must carry everything in their arms, and what we let fall will be picked up by those left behind. The procession is very long and life is very short. We die on the march. But there is nothing outside the march so nothing can be lost to it.”

This entire thread is exactly it:
There's a part of learning, which generative AI completely turns into dogshit, which is *doing something you could not have done before*

Whether it's drawing, playing an instrument, solving a physics problem, organizing an essay, you find yourself doing easily what previously you found overwhelming

If you were to gain no product at all, no legacy, no praise and you just received the moment of making and being alive, is that enough? If you knew that this was the last thing you ever made, ever sketched, if this was your last dance, would you be content?

It makes me sad that A Big Bold Beautiful Journey bombed. Kogonada did the impossible & made a Miyazaki movie in the human realm. I know My Irishman, whom I thought of when Colin Farrell was on screen despite mine being a metal philosopher-poet from Limerick, would hate it. I absolutely loved it.

I want to say this to so many people, including my mother, whom I'm no contact with. I almost, almost would break no contact just so she could hear this. Almost.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

As someone who survived the 2021 Texas power crisis due to Winter Storm Uri (& is now basically a climate/collapse refugee in the upper Midwest), I think this is utter madness. The collapse acceleration this will probably cause is incalculable.

Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics"

guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

This hit me like a brick because same, albeit I'll be locked up for different reasons.
also every time I've seen anything cool for the last year there's a tiny doomer part of my brain that's like "this may be the last time you see this before you're locked away for your gender identity or some shit" so joke's on them, I'm thinking about national political news too

IIRC this started when the account tweeted out furry fetish art/meme that someone had edited to include IWW themes. They got a tonne of pushback. Instead of deleting and pretending it never happened they saterted actively courting freelancers, tailors.
After all, every worker is a fellow worker.
