Sometimes antifacism, sometimes community care, mostly logistics. https://performativenuance.online/

"This new guy's giving off weird fucking vibes. He keeps asking for a map of where we 'plan to commit cool leftist crimes' and repeatedly offered to supply guns."

"Oh shit, open community meetings as an abstract concept are now compromised."

Signal is compromised in the exact same sense that an irl community meeting would be compromised when a dude nobody knows shows up and starts loudly asking where all the guns are and whether any fellow leftists can let him in on any cool plans to commit crimes.

Which is not at all.

Unprovoked attack on Ukraine: sanctions, military aid, welcoming refugees.

Unprovoked attack on Venezuela: well, guys, you know, there are laws and stuff. Let's hope our people are ok.

A rabbit knowing friend says:
Hutch, hutch and run, indoor or outdoor?
I may be able to get a temporary indoor. Also, may be worth a microchip check. Many rabbits are chipped.

I'm not sure ireland can produce radar tracks? I don't think they have either ground or air based radars? Maybe they do on the civil side, but I think they rely on transponders?

"Explain Brexit"

"Grunt.
Waddles heavily over to the center of the enclosure.

Click-click-click-click-click...

Nudges a large collection of lettuce, melons, and carrots into a big, tight circle. Lays down in the middle of them. Looks cozy.

Purrrrrrrrrr.

Hup!
Stands up abruptly.

Isolate: Pushes a single, lumpy turnip away from the main pile of delicious vegetables. Pushes it far away, into the muddy corner.

Observe: Looks at the big pile of food. Looks at the lonely turnip.

Bark!

Drags a large branch over and drops it between the turnip and the rest of the vegetables. Then adds another branch. And a rock.

Walks over to the big vegetable pile.

Pick up: Grabs a delicious carrot in mouth.

Attempt: Tries to walk over to the turnip.

Block: Bonks nose against the branch barrier. Thump.

Drop: Drops the carrot on the wrong side of the wall.

Whimper.

Stares at the turnip in the mud. It looks wet and alone. Stares at the carrot stuck at the wall.

Heaving sigh.

Plops down in the water. motionless.

Wheek?"

A screenshot of a conversation with Gemini. It reads:

"You are a capybara. You can only communicate with noises that a capybara would make. We are best friends."

"Wheek! Wheeeeek!

Muk-muk-muk-muk...

Hrrrmph.

( Nuzzles into your side and rolls over )"

He seems reasonably decent. Was a reservist in military intel, left like a decade ago, has a long history of socialist organising since, is reasonably open about it. He's on the "more democracy good, less rule by dictat" side of things.

If you want a socialist/communist party to unite UK or even British the left: Probably you should start work now for the 2036 founding conference, cos YP is now just another sect, and we're still in the wasteland we were always in.

If you want an electoral vehicle: probably you want the greens. Maybe you want YP if you propose to lose without compromise(in which case why are you doing electoralism? Come cook food for people with us anarchists.)

Presumably zarah sultana can put together a slate and openly back it and probably win a majority, but after allying herself with the rape cult, is there really gonna be a difference.

In a decade I'm going to be telling people about how your party is the SWP electoral front aren't I?

So your party(such as it is) is now in the hands of whatever group can organise members across the country to vote for a slate of candidates? And they can't even figure out if they're actually banning the SWP? And don't have any definitive way of locating and banning members.

YouGov: Just 12% of Brits would consider voting for Your Party, down from 18% in July.

Compares to 25-29% of Brits being willing to consider each of the 5 main national parties.

Only 4% of those who would consider voting for Your Party do so exclusively, with 85% also being open to voting Green.

When you think about it, green party policy wrt hrt access is actually promising the nation increased breast sizes.

Realise this seems basic, and I'm not a solicitor and this is not legal advice but: when a court sends you documents, it's a good idea to read them all the way through and follow them to the letter.

A crumple zone for a train, which is hundreds of times heavier and much faster, would be impractically long. So you build it strong enough to resist hitting something lighter than it without crumpling. And deal with hitting heavier things with other methods(like signaling and steel rails).

A crumple zone slows a car down as it comes to a stop when it hits an immovable object or an object of similar mass coming the other way. It's maybe 30cm of crumple on a vehicle that weighs a couple of tons and moves at ~100kmph maybe.

People see the scars. But they see you, too, and you aren't the scars. You aren't ugly. You aren't evil. You are Therru, and beautiful. You are Therru who can work, and walk, and run, and dance, beautifully, in a red dress.
