In South Park, San Diego, US citizens stigmergically rose up against Trump’s Gestapo. The revolt erupted midday when ICE began rounding up people at a restaurant; patrons and passersby alike dropped everything to confront the regime storm troopers. #3E #EndImpunity #StopICE

It'll take 2-5 more decades for global society to earnestly wrangle with this, but it's incredibly weird the extent to which "maybe I can make an online stranger really mad" has become a hobby and animating purpose for so, So, SO many people.

Getting fucking REAL, folks.

Hold onto as much cash as you can. Don't spend much more than you need to. If you've ever wanted to learn how to optimize cooking/prep, good time to start.

Don't panic, find your people, keep your head on a swivel, take breaths. Grounding helps.

Whether you study history,
Whether you read policy,
Whether you care,
Whether you observe,
Reality will always have its say.

Storytime is comfortable.
Storytime is reassuring.
Eventually, bedtime comes.

It's like *that*.
