Cover image for Trollbreath Magazine, Issue 7, March of 2026. The original artwork is by Aimee Cozza. It depicts an astronaut floating in a blue and white sky, their back arched almost painfully. Spilling out of the back of their helmet is a spreading pool of darkness filled with planets and stars.

The unspoken rules for protest in the US have been, for decades, that if you have a big tame sign-holding march, it's safe to bring your kids.

If you're not perceived as threatening their power, they'll leave you alone.

Which means they perceive their unpopularity as a threat to their power

Bring a tent into the house. If you lose heat, set up in an interior room so you can trap the body heat in there. A blanket or pillow fort can do in a pinch.

I tried to drink a regular soda there, tasted the fake sugar. Got rid of it and gave up on soda for the trip. I would rather go without than have that. I’m better off without soda anyway.

It’s been said before, but I somehow thought full dystopia would not involve a day job, rent, and cleaning my floors. The banality of societal collapse feels quite disempowering. Keep fighting folks, even when it’s an add-on to your already busy day.
