Capitalism, the abrahamic religions, animal cruelty, human over-population and the lack of sensual massage are the main problems of the world. Period.

Marc Benioff today called for a Federal Troop invasion of San Francisco by the Felon regime.
If able, please go to Moscone Center next week to disrupt this Fascist Billionaire’s call for military occupation of the Bay Area for absolutely no valid reason.
Show Benioff he is no longer welcome here!

ticosfrancisco.bsky.social @ticosfrancisco.bsky.social · 16h

Even better than that:
Benioff’s massive Dreamforce convention is NEXT week in downtown San Francisco.
What better place to show up &let him know what Bay Area residents think about his call for Federal Troop invasion of our cities?
Disrupt Fascists!

Again, people, the New York Times and the Washington Post, along with all the major TV network news outlets, are not valid news sources ANYMORE.
They haven’t been for a long time now. They are fully owned propaganda organizations.
Stop expecting real news from them.
Stop linking to their articles.

What frightens me most about Halloween cobwebs isn’t how they look…..it’s that they catch the living.
Enjoy the season, but keep the plastic webs indoors; or skip them altogether.

UPDATE: Grayson survived, but his abuser escaped justice. #BaltimoreCounty gave 6 months’ probation & a $500 fine. Tell #Maryland State’s Attorney Scott D. Shellenberger & ASA Alexander Walsh this is unacceptable. #Justice4Animals #Justice4Grayson bit.ly/3L2J5gk

I cannot stress this strongly enough: Support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them. They need us, and more importantly, we need them.

For many years we in the Doom Commune have been posting about the great unravelling of the biotic freak show. We do it for shits and giggles, that we might revel in the cool streams of consciousness while our simian siblings wallow in the mud of fools. We do it to affirm the reality of extinction.
