 it's hard to resist your heart's calling when you're flying through the air on
 a bike.
 
 but then, rent comes due, and your bike is your new home. at least until it
 needs repair.
 
 well, capitalism's always there, you could just try resisting your heart's
 calling!

 post until you can't anymore
 
 capitalism wants to drown your voice
 
 do not let it
 
 speak until you cannot speak
 
 then go do some pushups
 
 then find some friends
 
 then pitch a tent in the park
 
 then explain to the cops that you're not actually homeless and living there
 you're just trying to do this as a social statement because someone on the
 internet told you to
 
 then use your phone call to call your representative and complain about how
 much funding the police get
 
 then study law for 30 years because that's how long the government decided
 your life was worth
 
 by then you'll probably have figured out a better plan moving forward, so, use
 that one instead

 witches would "ride brooms" everywhere because they're quarterstaves, and when
 you have like 3 brooms being pushed in your face because your backup is there
 to help keep the men away, it's a lot more intimidating for would-be-rapists.
 
 Witches ride bikes everywhere (now that they've been invented) because they're
 easy, they're free, they're quiet, and they're cheap. They let you get away
 from any encounter, which is the BEST way to get out alive and still retain
 your experience point bonus.

 there will always be people who shine in moments of strife
 
 yet those people will inevitably fail, just as a toothbrush bristle looses
 it's strength or a pencil loses it's lead
 
 the trick is to test them in times of peace, so you can know their value
 
 during times that lack it, the trick is to replace them before they become
 stalin
 
 never forget that power corrupts, yet power must be wielded by the worthy,
 else we fall into shame and despair.

 the notes by the roadside. Doing so tells all the nearby drivers "hey I need a

 gotta build the social infrastructure to get through this phase first, though.

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 what's that? a bunch of houses burnt down in california? what if we built a
 couple warehouses and stored all our trans girls in bunkbeds there, with rooms
 for LAN parties and snuggle parties in rooms full of stuffed buddies plushies
 with massive kitchens and sad ballpits where you can go to vent your feelings
 by writing on a ball with a sharpie and then when someone else is feeling sad
 they can come and read the balls and maybe feel something

 Capitalism isn't perfect but if it's capitalism or cyberpunk North Korean

 aren't safe financially though? Like, if you own a billion dollars it should
 be because you make a billion dollars per year. Anything you don't spend
 should be taxed away, to be used for public services and the defence of our
 nation.

 if people want to be loved for more than their money, they should reject the
 lie that capitalism told them. they deserve their wealth because they are
 willing to serve. that willingness, whether through moral corruption or simply
 industrious drive, that willingness is rewarded, and when the system they
 serve is unkind... what does that tell you about their heart? that they'd
 sacrifice what is good and true for the material? materials are not bad.
 material is all we got, in a physical sense. but capitalism and it's servants
 are cruel and unwilling to concede to the idea that their games of unmatched
 exploitation are depriving the world bit-by-bit of life, liberty, and the
 pursuit of happiness.

 if you're a fan of both political posts and kookie-dookerie:
Attacking your enemies weaknesses is the route to victory. Safeguarding your own helps ensure the avoidance of defeat. But when your enemy is a culture, who do you target? Their women and children of course.  The GOP attacks abortion rights. They attack trans kids in sports, schools, and bathrooms. And that which you resist is what you'll find, so they find rallying cries of leftists defending the weak. And when you maximize your weaknesses, you leave yourself vulnerable. So how do you protect yourself from all sides when you're only hit where it hurts?  Women, children, the disabled, the mentally ill, the kindhearted loving men, the oppressed minorities and marginalized workers. All people who belong to the left, and all essentially deadweight in a fight. What can they do but serve as a banner that others fight for? A man in a wheelchair cannot shoot a gun, and a woman hooked on drugs should not have children. Yet the left protects them.  Give me your tired, your hungry, your broken and your poor. Liberty, liberty, freedom for all. But freedom is won with a hard hand clenched in a fist, a hand holding the stock of a rifle. Violence solves no problems, but solutions aren't always necessary - sometimes the threat is enough. But who cares for the soul of the murderer? None but the gravediggers, who reap the benefit of his rampage and the crows who listen for gunshots.  ... there's not enough characters remaining for alt. sorry. you can read the rest on my website if you'd like.

 every renewal has loss. it's okay.
 
 if people start going to camps, then you won't have any debt anymore because
 you'll be fighting the people who are sending people to camps. And I don't
 necessarily mean throwing metal at them directly, only a small group of people
 need to do that. Rather, your voice, your presence, your diligence, and your
 spirit will flavor the nature of the new world to come.
 
 Have heart, for the ones who need you will rest easier if you're strong in
 your heart and compassionate in your convictions.
 
 The climate is in peril, but it's not destroyed. We will regenerate it. We
 have the technology, we must simply cast off our chains so that we may apply
 it.
 
 ... Simple, but not easy.
 
 It will never get done otherwise, which is why it will happen. Because it must
 get done, so we will make it happen. Humans trend toward procrastination but I
 promise, we'll make it work.

 I'd ask why of course, and then I'd try and find them a solution that didn't
 involve taking my stuff. They may need it more than me, but I still need it.
 Like... okay picture that feeling you get when in a capitalist society and you
 need dollars to live because they are a genericized and fractalized
 abstraction of all the various individual mazlowe's hierarchy of needs you
 have. Then, think of it like, instead of money being an abstracted form of all
 of your needs, think of your needs... each of them, the ones that matter to
 you, and abstract them into money. Basically say "yeah sure my time and my
 labor are worth dollars, I abstract my needs into money" and then you can
 kinda see why capitalism is harmful. I'd prefer to give them what they need,
 because society provides what I please, but alas I'm always kept wanting. What
 good is our capitalist utopia? what good is our hope? what good comes of us
 when all of us have learned how to cope?
 
 I think we could give a bit more if we weren't hanging from the rope

 if you live in a city, probably not. They put them in fake buildings with
 hollowed out exteriors in order to keep the city looking nice.

 highly, highly recommend having a smart phone and a dumb phone at the same
 time. The smart phone can be wi-fi only so you don't have to pay for it,
 just... have it around in-case you need it. Use it for things like playing
 Magic Survival or messaging from bed, but use your flip phone for all the
 phone-related activities like calls and texts.

 at this point in time you probably shouldn't be forming NEW online communities
 unless you're part of an OLD community that just isn't radical enough. And
 then you should try and MERGE communities into larger, more geographically
 concentrated ones.

 Question... Do you either:
 
 A. Wait for the fall 
 Or 
 B. Become the fall 
 
 One puts you in a better position, with the initiative and momentum. The other
 is reactionary and not solutions focused.

 true, but much the same way people will rebel against inconvenience by writing
 passwords on sticky notes, so too might they put SSH keys onto the nearest
 flash drive without validating that it hasn't been compromised. There's
