With Nazis and Patriot Front holding a 50-100 person "unannounced march" on Washington DC with police escort today, it's a good time to remind folks that when we did that in support of BLM, it was:
- announced weeks ahead of time,
- received permits to be there,
- labelled a riot anyway,
- and the police that showed up weren't there to escort us.

For some reason, I got a ton (or at least several ounces) of people asking me about Faraday bags for phones the last couple days.

While I’m not in the Faraday bag testing business, you might find this writeup I did a couple years ago helpful, mainly to explore how you can think about what Faraday bags do and don’t do and how to measure them. Go science!

@StillIRise1963 Or what your excuse is for hanging out with them. Newsflash the twitter algorithm promotes hate. Move away if you can. Don't give them oxygen.

(Pssst, remember that bit where a crazy woman was screaming at you "don't tell me about protecting OUR media, I don't own it, and for profit media under capitalism ALWAYS ends up serving the rich fascists; it has NEVER been ANY OTHER WAY..." Can you imagine why I'm brining that up now? You can? Oh good!)

@GottaLaff Surprise, surprise. A tinpot jackbooted authoritarian Nazi wannabe wants to be president. It’s a good day to donate to #Biden. #VoteBlue https://secure.actblue.com/donate/

I have a zine entry due midnight tomorrow. It's going iffy. 800 words in but I'm cheating quoting lyrics. 😂😂😂 And I'm back at this.

Because I'm an adult and decisions like "What should I have for lunch" shouldn't be left up to me.

tonight’s pineapple reminds you that even though things are rough and there’s darkness in the world, there is also light and joy and friendship and love (and a healthy dose of gravity-defying nonsense bedtime hair also helps) 🍍💜

NY: White Vet kills mentally ill Black man—GOP makes killer a hero😳

WI: White shooter kills 2 people at BLM rally—GOP makes killer a hero😳

TX: White Vet kills BLM marcher—GOP makes killer a hero😳

DC: Black cop kills white insurrectionist—GOP makes insurrectionist a hero🤔

This is what white supremacy looks like

One of many ancient architectural wonders I visited during a trip to Paris is Saint Chapelle. The detail is astounding, at least to me, since we don't have nearly as much of this in Ontario. Here's one of the stained glass windows.
