theory: system of a down has aged incredibly well because all of their lyrics read exactly like posts you would read on the tl

exhibit 1: my cock is much bigger than yours. my cock can walk right through the door.
exhibit 2: revolution, the only solution, the armed response of an entire nation. we've taken all your shit, now it's time for restitution

It's worth learning about the arc of American right-wing survivalism and disaster/civil war fantasies just to see how much of it is trying to engineer scenarios that justify patriarchy and the nuclear family.

holy shit.
Alondra Cano, ward 9 city council representative, an hour ago, word for word:
"The former third precinct can never again have a police presence. We need a community process to decide the future of this site."

White queer people have white privilege that protects them from a lot of the violence that black and indigenous folks face from police, and the poster of that thread acknowledges this. But I think it's worth saying that if white queer people think they can ignore police brutality because it doesn't affect them, they're wrong. We all stand to benefit by standing in solidarity. We are guests in this fight, but it's important to us, too.

H U X??? THE GUY WHO ALWAYS LOOKS LIKE HE'S WATCHING SOMEONE NOT USE A COASTER???? YOU THINK GINGER SPACE FASCIST BOY IS GONNA TOP YOU???

Enough spreading around the same black pain videos over and over again, and enough making acab shitposts instead of actually doing something.

here are some places that could use some extra attention/funds

(Let me know if any other ones need attention or if there are any non-legit ones)

Y'all know black people didn't come up with the label "black" right? Blackness was assigned to sub-Saharan Africans to justify the colonialism and chattel slavery and brutal, genocidal violence Europeans were about to enact. This is your fault lmao

The DC mayor had "Black Lives Matter" painted onto 16th St behind the White House this morning. Street signs are also switched out ones that say "Black Lives Matter."

Although performative, this is gonna piss off a lot of gov officials, politicians, tourists, and trumpers.

the 3rd amendment prevents soldiers from quartering in your home but not you from quartering in a soldiers home. it is your constitutional right to cuck those troops.

@poamsa nah, reality is that the language of "cancelling" people comes from women of color trying to hold people accountable, then white people misused it into meaninglessness like so many other bits of appropriated slang

I started doing this a few months before the pandemic and it's a great first step to not ignoring homeless people

nuclear take: maybe the fact that nobody uses cash anymore is just a convenient excuse to not give money to the homeless when they ask. It's true that pretty much everyone just pays by card, but does that override moral duty? is it so hard to go to the bank and ask the teller for a roll of toonies to give out when asked?

Nothing is changed or won in days or weeks. You have to recharge. You have to sustain yourself. It's imperative to the movement

holy shit two cops got hit by lightning in DC. i'm calling it. God is on our side

LA Pride is working with the LAPD. Fuck every single one of those traitors.
