Strega Nona’s spaghetti lunch was a success! Nona loves and appreciate you all, especially those of you who ate her excess spaghetti. She has asked me to let you know that she is available for children’s spaghetti parties as well as small business spaghetti parties.

Strega Nona, a grandmotherly witch. Her smiling face is actually a mask. She wears a maroon sweater, green vest, cream skirt, and white apron. A matching cream veil covered her hair. Her arms are raised as if to say “Come get some spaghetti!”

Strega Nona, a grandmotherly witch, stands with her hands curled into fists, as if she were just beckoning someone to come eat spaghetti.

but my fantasy version of a working class person is a business-owning white guy ex-marine not some black trans girl barrista and ill do anything to maintain my belief about who the real working class is even though it's identical to how the far right defines it

Enticing. Alluring. Haunting.

Giving away zine packets that you made with your friends is an act of both love and resistance. Yes, I love you enough to fold 20 identical pieces of paper into eighths. Yes, I love you enough to learn how to stop kidnappings together!

Even if the bootlickers down the way took the packets, maybe their kids caught a glimpse as it hit the trash can and it’s the first spark of realization

Choosing to believe the four antifascist zine packets I left in the little free library were taken by people who will use them, and not by the family a few blocks from me that have a homemade RIP Charlie sign and Trump flag in their yard. Adding more packets either way.

How is this not just an overpriced furby?

Call me crazy, but I don’t think the representation of how much life force has been forcefully extracted from me each year should then fund the imprisonment of other people.

what will remain of the U.S. public sector is prison guards, ICE violence workers, soldiers and cops.

I just spent several minutes figuring out who the Nazi is and I had also not heard of him. But it seems like the signs were there for anyone willing to see

I am not at all in a place where I could raise animals, but maybe someday

That would be fun! I love sharing my excess plants and fruits/vegs

I wish I was lucky enough to have a neighbor with egg-laying animals. But I do have an egg guy who delivers eggs to the free fridge and I can pick up from there. I’m always trying to give vegetables to my neighbors but they don’t want them?!

Buy Nothing groups will also sometimes do food trains for members. Food trains are a good idea in general

It simultaneously never feels like enough and must be enough!

I took some spare food to an acquaintance tonight and I just wish I could do more, for more people. I’m always trying to think of ways to scale my own impact but I keep coming back to the fact that every one of us needs to make about a hundred tiny changes.

It’s getting real hard for people to afford groceries, food pantries are seeing more use with less resources, and SNAP benefits for Nov have been suspended.

Get in the habit of sharing with your friends and your neighbors. “Accidentally” make extra servings of dinner. Every small act counts

I currently have two guiding principles for every day, something that I use to realign myself when I’m feeling hopeless or helpless. I think “experience small but not harmful adversity” might become the third

sorry but you should not be able to get exactly what you want every time you want it — even if you want is "i want a new show that the algorithm recommends." it is bad for your brain. you should have to experience small but not harmful bits of adversity every now and then.

this is inspired by that guy who is telling everyone going to the video store sucked but: the way we have prioritized convenience above all else is a good idea in theory and has made us all insane

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Notably: every single rally (including in the small towns) was bigger than the surrounding police force available. That kind of image event is VERY IMPORTANT if you're, I dunno, demonstrating social coherence AGAINST a fascist government and it's makeshift gestapo.
