A member of ACT UP said that during the peak years of the AIDS crisis in the 1980s: β€œWe went to funerals and buried our friends in the morning, protested in the afternoon and then fucked danced and partied all night.”

Because the world is on fire, it’s on us to live out loud. We need to do it all.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

I was, I think, the first person to put Get Your War On into print, in Punk Planet eons ago, and it is depressing how it has remained relevant this whole time.

look if someone, somewhere misuses public funds that's proof we no longer need a welfare state. But if a right wing figure uses public funds for corrupt purposes well, he's just entitled, right?

Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible β€œAmerica at 250!” achievement

Libraries are among the few public institutions that represent the kind of world we want to live in. They must be fought for.

If there's one thing wrestling fans really really love it's being told not to chant something. Works out every single time. See also: a decade of WWE fans chanting for CM Punk.

You deserve access to abortion care if you are pregnant and do not want to be. Full stop.

Your reasons are your reasons and they are good enough.

Abortion is healthcare and everyone deserves healthcare access.

Whistle becomes key tool in protests against Trump’s ICE crackdown Protesters have been blowing whistles to alert people to agents’ presence – and that has upset figures on the right

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the TaΓ­nos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

Whistle Up 2: Rise of the Whistle Goblins | dansinker.com

Today the crew of weirdo printers that I call the whistle goblins passed A HALF MILLION whistles printed and shipped. I wrote about how we got there and how you can start printing whistles yourself. dansinker.com/posts/2026-0...

GM: Charisma check.

Mamdani: [rolls natural 20]

GM: that’s a d6 how did you

Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

On a similar note, as Mamdani continues to notch W after W you’re going to start seeing opinion pieces about how this could never work in any city other than New York, etc., etc. Do not engage! It’s just entrenched power bullshit and that’s all! Don’t let them make that a conversation!

I do not think the most significant cultural shifts will come from a World War, Class War, Race War, or whatever other battle people weirdly fantasize about. I think it’ll be an integration of the idea that children are people and not the property of their parents.
