Ok everyone, I’m assigning you your resistance homework for the week.

Everyone ready?

Do something silly that makes you smile. I just waved at a dog that had its head out the car window because it made me happy. Don’t let the assholes take your joy.

If you could take one billionaire's money away, who would it be and why?

You don't get the money. You just get to make them not have it.

They clearly learned a lesson from Baldur's Gate 3, the Official Game Of Genderfluid Pansexuals. Nobody liked that game and it made no money at all because it was too woke.

Are you a non-Black person pissed at Bluesky leadership and feeling a little jealous of all the good vibes coming from Blacksky?

There are Blacksky adjacent options for you! Here’s info from the Blacksky migration guide!

Screengrab from Blacksky migration guide:

blacksky algorithms

These servers run on the same infrastructure as blacksky.app and are maintained by the same team, but are available for anyone to use regardless of background.

I love that you don't name the Elon party candidate because it's obviously not a serious candidacy lol

Except from the article reading:
A few independent candidates will also appear on the Dec. 2 ballot, including the first candidate to run under Elon Musk’s new America Party.

My depression gets out of control sometimes. Sunday night was brutal. I took my overwhelming depression, a sticker design, and I turned it into a two-page short comic. And now I’m adding it to FEELING MESSED UP. The Kickstarter campaign is going on right now. www.kickstarter.com/projects/dfw...

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

Oh SHIT. Two birds with one stone and neither were for immigration. It was to hassle black folk and make a sizzle real about it and to help Wells Fargo out.

The building is in a 27 million dollar foreclosure filed by Wells Fargo. The next day, Wells Fargo filed an emergency motion for receivership. The fascist regime kindly emptied the building for donor Wells Fargo.
