The River

The River represents thoughts, and symbolizes the fragility of all things. The River is constant, like life, and always moves on. When alone, and in times of need, a dreamer can take comfort in knowing all existence and non-existence is finite, and fleeting. A river in dreams will provide sustenance, and reprieve, but only for as long as it is observed.

Witches may dance in the river, in the rocks and life below its surface. They are smart and kind, and will share matters of wisdom and magic.

The Gospel of Saint Hart

I was born to a Christian mother

and a Catholic father

In old Spanish halls

Growth in impatient ingress and egress

The habits of young parents

I was promised to God before I

Was allowed to know its meaning.

Some religious souls embody

Spare the rod

Jesus gave blood and so should we

I was inflicted with a task

Woven into my skin and brain

I would survive to tell my tale

My father would kidnap me

Convinced no child of God

Would act the way his did.

My mother would watch, an avatar of abuse

herself

She taught me its meaning also.

Midway upon the journey of my life

I found myself bound in song

For my will to speak had been lost

A dream would call to me

To unsheathe my battered bones

To commune with my pain

and self afflictions.

My own spirit spoke and said unto me

“I bear a mark that can carve a sigil.

Into a new home, I see where we can rest.

There, I can show you

We are truly God, and we can either punish

or absolve our own stains.”.

I broke bread and drank wine that night

I learned that now, I was responsible for

The growth of my own garden

My own mistakes and what I allow

Others to do or say to me.

Glory be to the God in us, and the dreams that set us free.

“Well if we hold presidents accountable for war crimes then Clinton and Obama would be in jail”

Awesome. There’s plenty of stuff those guys need to answer for.

“Well if we expose the Epstein List, that will ALSO affec-“

There is not a single name you could put up there that would make me not want that list made public. You could tell me Mr Rogers was on that list and I would still want it out there. You could tell me my own grandmother was on the list (may she rest in peace) and I would still want the list out there.

I think if there is a name you would rather protect instead of achieving justice then you have some very serious soul searching to do because that world is dying and you are about to be left behind or eaten by it.

It’s SPN’s 20th anniversary today! (Holy hell!) On this momentous occasion, the cast has a message for you. When you have answered our call, reply & share it with your friends!  It’s important! I want to know you’re in. bit.ly/SPN20th

sure he wanted you dead and would have celebrated your death with fervor and lightning. sure, he would have mocked your sexual assault and he would have implied you love playing victim, he would have made any instances of abuse into fragments. sure, he was terrible and horrific to you for the crime of existing - sure! he thought that your personhood was some kind of semantic debate. and yes, oh yes. he did definitely turn others into nazis.

oh yes, of course - if you did die this way - he would have tried to debate your weeping parents, to defame your family and friends. he would have smeared your memory until you were just a conversation topic, not a person.

but now that the motherfucker is dead; you need to be so milquetoast and careful about your words. you need to condemn whoever shot him. you need to give him hour-long speeches about how he's just a person. you need to talk about him with a gentleness and kindness he has never shown you, that he would not ever have shown in your death. the way you talk about this vile white man who has a legacy of radicalism and violent rhetoric - you need to picture him with angel wings. a sad day for the country!

(if it was you - shit. he would have said you were asking for it.)

you need to privately beg god that it is someone from the rightwing, because no matter the identity of the shooter - it's going to be your fault in the end. it is going to get people hurt or killed; which is ironically probably what he would have wanted. and you don't want to rile the rightwing; because this isn't about just political debate anymore. they genuinely and truly seem to want an all-out war.

they are a weapon of god! they have been taught to stand up and say i'm christian when the shooter comes in; this is that moment for them. despite years of telling any minority "don't make victimhood your personality" - they truly believe they are being hunted. their rights infringed upon because, you know, someone on the train has a rainbow wig on. you aren't imagining it - things these days really are more unsafe. and this man fucking helped make it that way.

and you watch as this fucking country - and the actual president - repaint this man as being a fucking saint. that it is implied to be a crime just to speak badly of a man who left behind a legacy of dishonest debate. they mocked george floyd relentlessly; "just questioned the reality" of the sandy hook shooting; ignored the death of melissa hortman entirely.

it's just - it feels like fucking gaslighting. because it doesn't matter how gently and sweetly you condemn the violence - and isn't gun control is literally part of what separates the right and the left - you're still somehow calling for it. and even though he hated you and wanted you dead; you need to show that man some respect. even though he was a fucker that often hurt others and encouraged radicalization - you need to salute this man like he was an actual veteran instead of just, like, really annoying.

that man is not a hero. to have the kind personality where the first assumption at your end is - because of who he was, it was probably someone looking for revenge.

[anistarrose]

oh someone else has probably beaten me to saying this, and/or said it more snappily, but when the police inevitably start pushing a public narrative about an alleged shooter, let's NOT immediately buy into that narrative by assuming that person is in fact guilty, no matter how funny the memes are that imply that that person did it. and also let's not forget that luigi mangione is still in federal custody while the trump administration is seeking the literal death penalty, despite police having been accused by the defense team of planting evidence in his backpack. free luigi and don't do the same shit to any alleged charlie kirk shooter

There are a lot of historically Black colleges and universities going into lockdown over threats to the campuses right now in the wake of Charlie Kirk's death. Some have received direct threats, and others are going into lockdown out of precaution. Please spread this around if you can, and check-in on any Black college students you know.

[anarchistmemedistro]

now why would someone target black people in retaliation for charlie kirk being killed? he was just expressing his political opinions right? totally harmless normal political opinions i’m told. his murder was a shocking act of political violence all these respectable mainstream politicians are saying. so it can’t be like he was a nazi calling for the genocide of black people or something right? where his nazi supporters might then kill black people in retribution for his death? that wouldn’t make sense.

Kabosu did not deserve to have her image turned into cryptocurrency. She did not deserve to have the meme she was known for across the world to become a code word for a fascist coup.

Her name is Kabosu. Not Doge.
