ok folks - the outfuckingrageous Stop Cop CIty RICO indictment includes a primer on anarchism and...wow.
Collectivism, solidarity, making zines, mutual aid - all part of a RICO criminal enterprise apparently
preparing to be assaulted by the police. Writing letters to friends who were assaulted by police? RICO criminal enterprise apparently. Somebody get their favorite MLK on the phone.
Dont trust the media and want to speak to people directly? RICO criminal enterprise apparently.
I read the whole thing, it's absolutely insane. ama.
I'm not posting sections with people's names, but at one point the indictment just goes on documenting what appear to be, like, venmo transactions back and forth. "X sent Y 40 dollars. Y sent X 30 dollars. This was in furtherance of a criminal conspiracy."
WILD!
"Anarchists often shorten the term "social solidarity" to "solidarity," and it is frequently woven into speeches, statements, and writings. In addition to "solidarity," anarchists often weave the term "mutual aid" and "collective" into their jargon and writings."
Unhinged.
Saying the word solidarity is an anarchist term is such a reach you can touch the surface of the fucking sun.
the US catholic bishops website has an entire page about solidarity.
Solidarity? That's anarchist. Sending money? Printing a zine? That's anarchist.
*kramer voice* why don't you just tell me what isn't an anarchist criminal enterprise?

i've spent 3 months at home with a happy baby, so the bar to keep my attention is high. Best of luck.
if I didn't respond to your "pick your brain" text these last 3 months, no hard feelings. My firewall was pretty intense. If you would have texted about baby pics I would have responded!
It looks like @RepMarciaFudge is chosen as the new @HUDgov Secretary. Very interesting choice by the Biden-Harris team. We don't know much about what Rep. Fudge thinks on housing, but we think her other positions like support for M4A and Green New Deal are good signs!
HUD right now needs someone who is a fighter. Our early ask to @RepMarciaFudge will be to support a homesguarantee (homesguarantee.com) and start rebuilding the agency to meet that need. She has many committed directly impacted peoples to help her if she chooses.
.@RepMarciaFudge will have her work cut out for her, perhaps more than any @HUDgov secretary in history as we're still on the front end of the biggest housing crisis we've ever seen. We're hopeful she'll roll up her sleeves and get to work, and we're ready to push!
just watched a michigan court throw out a ridiculous trump suit. Here was the face trump's lawyer made when the judge announced she was tossing the whole thing
the only problems with trump's suit, according to the judge, is that it was based on hearsay, brought the wrong party to court, couldn't give names of any of the ppl or locations they said broke the law and the relief sought is unavailable because the counting is over.
Hey Yall -
Last year around this time I had a bit of a breakdown. This year is even more stressful, so I'm taking some precautions to try and prevent that from happening again. I want to share some of those things here at the very least to encourage others to prep
I am by NO means a therapist or an expert. I'm just a dude with depression and anxiety. So I'm not giving you a list of things to do, but more a list of shit that I'm doing. You should make your own list.
1) I'm increasing my therapy visits. Usually do every other week but I'm moving to weekly. Honestly, at the moment that may feel like overkill, but it's good to have that in practice before things go wrong.
