“I remember when I first realized I never had to have children. It was like walking out of a narrow alley into a wide open field. I never have to get married. I never have to date anyone. I don’t even have to care about sex. These realizations were like gifts that I gave myself.” ― Maia Kobabe, Gender Queer: A Memoir (Affiliate link)
Happy late mid Autumn festival! This year it fell on my dad's birthday, so I was more focused on that. This is a busy month for us!

Just a general word of advice but any operational security measure you take as a protester and organizer including encrypted messaging services should not be seen as foolproof but as a potential point of failure.
Meaning, try not to say anything on Signal you wouldn't want read out loud by a judge or live by a federal agent who has intercepted your messages with Israeli spy technology.
You're trying to put up barriers to obfuscate to the state and fascists any protest or organizing activity. Having access to your contacts is a major hole that allows the state to surveil and harass your associates but if that's most of what they can attain from your messages, then that's all they can exploit your information for. Make it as difficult for them to profile you and the movement even in the case of potential security breaches as possible.
Presume even with rigorous and thorough operational security habits that you're being watched anyways because you often won't even know if you were actually being surveilled..
This is not to promote paranoia and inaction but safety in the face of risk. Don't leave behind evidence, digital or otherwise, and don't create unnecessary evidence the state could later use.
We're in a new era of repression and surveillance. Be smart, stay safe, stay dangerous friends.
“The Militarization of the Police Department – Deadly Farce,” an original painting by Richard Williams from “The 20 Dumbest People, Events, and Things of 2014″ in Mad magazine #531, published by DC Comics, February 2015.
Here’s the original, for comparison. And here’s a bit more about the artist and why he created the piece above for MAD Magazine.
Richard Williams on Norman Rockwell:
“For most people, he was the painter of ‘America,’” he added. “But even he said his vision was what he wanted ‘America’ to be. It was a mythical ‘America,’ a place where all people were decent, honest and full of good will. His work was full of gentle humor that made you feel a little better; even if you knew it wasn’t really true… you just wished it was. My parody of Rockwell’s painting simply says, ‘That myth is dead.’”
I think it’s relevant to add that even Norman Rockwell chose to leave his cushy job at the Saturday Evening Post because he wanted to make artwork that was more radical. The Post had rules that wouldn’t allow him to do artwork depicting black people as anything other than servants. The job paid really well and that was a huge reason he continued on. But he wanted change that and so he moved to Look magazine.
A lot of people know about the very first piece he did when he left the post which was the The Problem We All Live With which depicts Ruby Bridges walking to school under federal protection.
But I don’t think enough people know about Murder in Mississippi which depicts three real civil rights activists who were murdered by the Ku Klux Klan and sherriffs. The magazine ran the sketch instead of the finished piece because they felt it had a more striking statement to accompany the article. Norman Rockwell would finish that version after publication which is here
Rockwell’s legacy is sanitized because he decided to maintain his job at the Post for so long despite his frustrations with not being able to express himself. The civil rights movement was just his final straw to change what he could with the little time he had left. Look magazine received a lot of hate for Rockwell painting these as well.
Another favorite piece of mine is The Right to Know which depicts an integrated populace questioning their government. In 1968, the year of Vietnam and the year the Fair Housing Act only just got signed in months prior:
But I think it’s important to include the caption Rockwell originally wrote for the piece as well. I think it represents how a 74 year old Rockwell felt about the America he believed in and the people in it:
We are the governed, but we govern too. Assume our love of country, for it is only the simplest of self-love. Worry little about our strength, for we have our history to show for it. And because we are strong, there are others who have hope. But watch us more closely from now on, for those of us who stand here mean to watch those we put in the seats of power. And listen to us, you who lead, for we are listening harder for the truth that you have not always offered us. Your voice must be ours, and ours speaks of cities that are not safe, and of wars we do not want, of poor in a land of plenty, and of a world that will not take the shape our arms would give it. We are not fierce, and the truth will not frighten us. Trust us, for we have given you our trust. We are the governed, remember, but we govern too.

She is quoted, "The thing is, the first seven years of your life, your experiences, it shapes who you are as a person, and then Gaza children are not allowed to be children. Right now, kids in Gaza are growing up afraid of the sky because when they look at the sky, there's either bomb, leaflets killing you to evacuate and even when there is clouds, you look at them and you can't differentiate, are these clouds or are these smoke from a bombing?"]
Let's fucking go! You can find material online that talks about the tactics used by police. These same materials will often talk about things to avoid doing so they don't lose their grip on the crowd. Study that material, learn those things they need to avoid doing and figure out how to trigger it. Be smart, don't forget about your comrades, and prioritize the safety of yourself and others.
September 22, 2025 - Italian motorists react to getting stuck in traffic due to the national strike and Palestine solidarity blockades which shut down the country. [video]
"This isn't going to make me support your cause" - Someone who already hates you and your cause
"Today we like it" - Based Italian lady
They’re letting ambulances through, though, right? Legit question.
yes, legit answer.
Leftist blockades literally always discuss this beforehand and have the plans in place to move aside for actual emergency vehicles (ie not cops).
Emergency vehicles can normally still use the shoulders, but if annoyed motorists have stupidly blocked the shoulders by trying to go around other blocked traffic, the blocked traffic will split for them and when the emergency vehicles reach the blockade it will be opened up quickly for the emergency vehicles to move through without delay, similarly to emergencies during a traffic jam.

speaking of halloween- if you don’t know what the fuck this is, i am begging you to educate yourself<3
happy october ! please rise for the anthem
Fun fact: This music video was released in July 1997. They had no obligation to make this in any way Halloween themed. The song probably isn’t on many Halloween playlists. But the Backstreet Boys wanted to do it this way, and had to fight the record label about it.
Oh, so this video clip is what they were referring to when they sung I want it that way?
This was the best scene in the whole series
Scenes like this are great, because they go into religious horror without making the entire faith evil. Having a demon plainly state that the bishop is an arsehole and deserves hell is always a good plot, especially when the demon IS correct.
a demon telling you god is not real or god doesent care about humanity is easy to shrug off as demons lieing
but a demon telling you god is real, god is good and god hates your guts quite literally puts the fear of god in you, especially when your about to find out if hes right in about 20 seconds
(From Netflix’s Castlevania, which is excellent.)
I love this show and this scene but also it just makes me think of this
If the government shuts down, who will funnel our taxes to military contractors? Who will subsidize the billionaires? Who will tap our phones, raid our communities, deport our neighbors?
Unfortunately, the shutdown won't stop those activities of the state.
The real problem is that the shutdown doesn't go far enough. Make the shutdown comprehensive and permanent!

"As anarchists, we’ve got a hunch that people can get along just fine without a government. We’re convinced that everything the government does is either harmful and should be abolished outright (borders, prisons, armies, surveillance) or can be done better by groups of people working together freely (social welfare, preserving wilderness, coordinating production and distribution, collective self-defense)."
