zzzzzzzz

how to balance the desire to run away into the woods and go off grid and the desire to stay with community and build resilience to fight back

it’s scary out here

My relationship with the internet is shifting massively.

Esp in terms of social media and how I use it............

The “dual state” theory was invented to describe Nazis. The Supreme Court could take us there. Authoritarianism—but make it look like the rule of law.

Under the Third Reich, most Germans generally lived in the law-bound normative state, while Jews and other disfavored people were victims of the arbitrary and violent prerogative state.

The dual state is characterized by the facade of normalcy obscuring the fact of an authoritarian state.

for example, there is a spectrum of fair or unfair things that can happen if you (a cis person) commit a crime and are sent to prison

but i will most likely be placed in a men's prison and raped to death no matter the crime/sentence (V coding) with the alternative being solitary confinement forever

is anyone else absolutely terrified right now and getting more scared by the minute

Saving lives on the frontline in Palestine - help Maha My name is Louisa and I'm raising money for my dear friend Maha and her family in Gaza. Here is her story:

The news is incredibly quiet tonight but people are saying this is the worst night of the genocide.

Just one ask - help a single mom & her kids in Gaza City survive this. Funds are for evacuating the city south. Anything helps.

34/500 USD (50/750 AUD) by Tuesday. Click “change currency.”

Seen out and about in Chicago.

(2/2) what it does instead is put ownership on the individual for avoiding the direct ask. in addition, providing information on covid data thru your org could be encouraged.

random thought i just had that im genuinely curious folks opinion on. for hosting events and such, what do yall think about the term “mask requested” instead of “mask required”? while the major difference is that obviously you can’t bar people from entry who are unmasked, but

the event is free but is a fundraiser for central florida mutual aid’s trans safety fund, so donate if you can!!

Reminder that National Guardsmen also hold down civilian jobs. Who's doing that work while they're off neo-slavecatching?

i feel like every time i just surround myself with ppl i feel a little better temporarily but the second im alone again the existential spirals begin and im just getting so extra stuck rn

anyone feel like sharing their coping mechanisms for dealing with the existential dread of the world right now, specifically techniques for when alone and not able to be around others lol
