I am putting my small amount of hope in the inability of the federal government to get anything done.

Younger, healthier, charismatic, great on camera, focused in stressful situations. Also, she'll be great at dealing with congress because she is so experienced with dicks and assholes.

I'll be there in November!

Side note, maybe we can have Riley Reid for the candidate?

Yep, I'll pokemon go to the polls now. Harris would not be my first pick, but it would be dumb for me to demand that biden step down and still not vote when my demand is met.

Democrats have listened to their voters and they deserve to be rewarded for that.

Well, the shooter was a registered republican. So it is still seeming possible.

Considering he is in a crowd of angry gun obsessed extremists who have been cultivated to reject reality, I think there is a decent chance that this was one of his own. Maybe someone was pissed that he softened his stance on abortion. The so-called "pro-lifers" have murdered before.

Well... watcha gonna do about it Joe?

I totally agree, but I find it a tedious point.

If I say America is evil, or America is racist and genocidal from it's inception, people don't rush to say "Well the American government is bad, and racists are bad, and voters who keep upholding white supremacy are bad, and America's racist laws are bad, and the racist features in America's founding documents are bad, and America is build on stolen land, and American imperialism is bad, and America's long bloody history is bad, BUT let's be clear that Americans are good. Also, many of Americas enemies are also bad."

The real album is "Satan is real" but it had all the letters necessary for this message.

Most likely scenario is that they drive around in their trucks waving both flags of the US and flags of traitors to the US, block traffic, and post to Facebook.

Worst case scenario, there is a wave a of hate crimes as these hyped up fascists try to "defend America" by picking fights with any random brown person they see.

Best case scenario, they try messing with federal agents, get arrested, and wont be voting in November.

 

Sov Cit - I'm not under your jurisdiction. driving is a commercial activity, I am traveling and that doesn't require a license.

Big Tech - We're not a taxi company, labor laws don't apply to us. We are an app company that allows independent contractors to find customers.

Sov Cit - I am not the legal person, I am the flesh and blood living person. I do not need any identification.

Big Tech - We're a hotel network. We're a website that enables peer to peer short term home sharing. Neither we, nor the people who rent on our website should be subject to any sort of existing regulations.

Just a thought.

 

Smartphones are cool but they are fairly limited as far as the types of data that they can really take in. If you were putting together a kit of tools with existing technology to gather data for science and engineering which tools do you think would be most important? Here are my ideas.

  • Multimeter

  • IR camera

  • UV camera

  • Motion amplification camera

  • Microscope

  • The flipper zero or some similar hacking tool

 

What are the best zines for introducing beginners and libs. I have a couple of places I want to start distributing zines but I think my audience needs some real basic concepts like cops aren't your friends, profit isn't really what motivates most people, direct action can be effective. I like Bullshit Jobs and To Change Everything, but I need some more variety.

 

I have volunteered with Food Not Bombs in my city for six years. Many cities have their own branches. Food Not Bombs serves free vegan meals. As much as possible this food comes from food waste rescue. Many locations also distribute clothing, groceries, and hygiene products.
