When 25 year old me sat there in that gas chamber the only day it did not work I remember having only two thoughts in my mind. That I wasn’t even afraid to die. And that something like this would never happen again since the human race would have learned something. Today, 72 years later, I realize that I was wrong

Radical! films to inspire your inner anarchist. - Movie List

[imjustabagofbags]

Anarchists, vegans, anti-fascists, environmentalists, queers, punks, egalitarians, atheists… This is a collection of films that in one way or another embrace radicalism, non-conformity, and counter-culture; films that shine the light on a system that is oppressive, unsustainable, and on the verge of collapse; films that inspire you to look at things in a more critical way, and maybe even quit your job and revolt; films that cater to the sensibilities of the ultra-left-wing and post-liberal extremists. These are political documentaries, punk films, left-wing children’s movies, tree-hugger films, and spotlights on subcultures that rejected what they were given and told to do; films that question authority and societal standards; films that believe in equality amongst species, genders, sexual orientations, and race; films that interrogate and mock capitalism; films that reject careers, academia, and tradition; films that give you the whys or hows behind abolishing the current system.

* And yes, I do believe anti-capitalism, atheism, environmental sustainability, egalitarianism, and respect for non-human animals are INHERENTLY anarchist principles. *

I watch a lot of movies every week, so this list is updated pretty regularly (assuming I watch anything that qualifies). There are currently over 200 titles, so check it out!

The gravity drive

"I don't know what I'm doing, but I know it's my time to be. If I must be, may I be free. I don't know what I'm saying, but I know it's my turn to speak. If I must speak, may I do so honestly."

Because of those awful volume pops (heard at the end of the clip) I won't be sharing the whole video but here's a tiny bit of "Darkness Records" by @jeffrosenstock

Thanks to anyone who helped me freak out a little less while my furry daughter felt like shit all week. She's clearly feeling flawless again. Settle a bet: what's a better name for my future sitcom web-series, Ginny & Bern or Bernie & V?

I want to read in bed but what kind of sociopath would ruin such a peaceful cat nap for two angels? That's their bed now, this is fine.

Here's to seven years of this gentlemen keeping my soul strong. If there's something that I know for sure, I'll be front & center like a nerd every time you're in town singing it all right back at you (even if I'm not on the bill). (at Voltage Lounge)
