When have you ever been pleasant about working? Your coworkers will get suspicious if you show up all chipper and chirpy.

They issue service-specific ID cards just like every other military organization on the planetโฆ but not to informants, lol. Why the hell would anyone issue, much less accept, a card outing the bearer as a spy?? ๐คฃ

So believe me I understand this is deeply frustrating and unfair, but a march that does everything right and still gets tear gassed is a successful march that is winning.
A lot of the strategy of protest is luring the authorities into engaging in obviously, transparently unjust uses of force.

It's hard to overstate how ell-organized the portland march that got gassed was... organizers made the crowd promise to be peaceful, said the march would slow in front of the ICE building but not stop, that we would stick to one chant (ICE Out). They did absolutely everything right and got gassed.

The number of people just now finding out that Noam Chomsky is and has always been an exploitative, racist, misogynistic sleazebag astonishes me.

Today's Low Quality Ad is for this Sword Girl Pin. This is why rich powerful men try to control women. Because if girls grow up thinking they can become anything they want, 9/10 girls will choose to be sword-wielding badasses determined to cut down the patriarchy.

If you squeeze an Army-issued camelback hydration system correctly, you can get a pretty good jet of water to shoot out the nozzle. Just saying.

To those saying, "but the Greens will split the vote":
1. Things have changed.
2. It's not the Green's fault that Starmer has the Merdas Touch (turns everything to shit)
3. When the Greens offer the only inspiring option, perhaps we should see the Labour candidate as splitting the vote.

Did you know baby shampoo is mild enough, when used with water, to rinse eyes if they've been sprayed? Like when walking on or around ICE?
We need to be careful and listen to this ophthalmologist about pepper spray.
