Stuff and Things

This affliction has driven me to the sweet field.

[shunderdome]

My new longterm goal is to read every piece of literature that was the basis for an episode of Wishbone.

The guide is as follows. 

Strike Through: I have read this and remember it well.

Italics: I have read this but do not feel like I remember it well enough answer the interrogative, “What’s the story, Wishbone?” 

Bold: I have read this since beginning this ill-advised endeavor.

April, 1932 The diary of Anaïs Nin [Volume One: 1931-1934]

[shunderdome]

Éirinn go Brách.

Saoirse don Phalaistín.

Cosaint do dhídeanaithe.

Bia don ocrach.

Ceartas do gach duine.

Inis an frírinne don chumhachtach, as Gaeilge, as Béarla, i ngach teanga.

Ireland Forever.

Freedom for Palestine.

Protection for refugees.

Food for the hungry.

Justice for all people.

Speak truth to power, in Irish, in English, in every language.

Anuraidh, i mbliana, agus i gcónaí.

Last year, this year, and always.

[shunderdome]

Cosúil le gach bliain, Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh má tá cúram oraibh faoi chearta inimirceach.

Mura bhfuil croí agaibh do dhídeanaithe, d’inimircigh, agus do na daoine ocracha, níl mé ag iarraidh sibh a fheiceáil amuigh anseo inniu ag ceiliúradh.

Like every year, Happy St Patrick’s Day if you care about immigrant rights.

If you don’t have a heart for refugees, immigrants, and the hungry, I don’t want to see you out here today celebrating.

When the Feds Come to Your City: Standing Up to ICE

A Guide from Chicago Organizers

https://crimethinc.com/StandUptoICE

Are masked agents stalking your town, looking to kidnap your neighbors? Want to do your part to protect each other, but don’t know where to start?

This guide is based on the knowledge that an array of people have accumulated in Chicago over the past several months during “Operation Midway Blitz.”

As federal agents expand their assaults on communities across the country, it is crucial to share and build on these practices.

Do you think that sometimes after yet another case with a murderous couple smack dab in the middle of it, Hercule Poirot thinks to himself ‘ah, les hétéros. How lucky I am to have dodged that bullet.’? Like how many times do you have to unmask a plot to kill a spouse so the lovers can marry and keep the money gained in the first marriage do you have to deal with before you need a long night of reading gay erotica and a cup of cocoa to balance things out? The mind reels.
