vesna (mrsronweasley) on AO3. Unless we have mutual friends or I can clearly see you’re in fandom, I will most likely block you. It’s not personal. This is just why I’m here.

In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

Not a shitpost: #NoKings is feel-good performative activism for comfortable mostly upper and upper middle class white folks and that’s good, actually. Millions of people in the streets protesting a fascist regime is good. It is good for the normie baseline to be massive displays of public dissent.

I have had the most Michelle Duggar-looking elderly rural Montanans be completely normal to me about being trans, “why are people being so goddamn weird about it” is an underrated winning message

guy who brought the trans flag we iwo jima’d described himself as “yeah i was pretty neutral about trans people, think i still am honestly, but these people are being so goddamn weird about it that i gotta get off the fence”

just lost 20 minutes of real time and 20 years off my life when we could NOT find the car key. I finally remembered that there is a big windowsill hidden behind the drawn curtain but oh my GOD

folks can complain about the effectiveness of scheduled orderly mass protest but to think about it another way its the closest thing we have to the opening scene of A Muppet Christmas Carol where all the muppets sing "there goes Mr. Dipshit, there goes Mr. Ass" to Scrooge and it clearly bothered him

One of the most TRUE signs I have ever seen at a march. Write this down and act upon it, friends.

#NoKings #Manhattan

Hand drawn sign reads ACTION ABSORBS ANXIETY

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”?

anyway that’s why these events are important

the best thing I could hear from my wife: “tomorrow morning, I just need you to stay out of my way while I pack us” oh no do I have to 👀

(violently hate packing at the end of a trip)
