"They'll never cut Social Security" is the new "they'll never overturn Roe v Wade."

Your rights are inalienable. They are not granted by Man, Government nor God. They are entitled to you because you exist, and they are worth fighting for.

You are worth fighting for.

There are 2 storylines here:

- The one that paints a picture of despair.

- The one that paints a picture of action.

One says, "This is what's happening. There's nothing we can do about it."

The other, "This is what's happening. Unless we stop it."

Knowledge is power IF we create action from it.

‘They told me Pan was dead, but I
⁠Oft marvelled who it was that sang
Down the green valleys languidly
⁠Where the grey elder-thickets hang.’

"Sisyphean task this, Herculean task that, I'm sick of them all. Give me some Dionysian tasks, let me tackle some wine and grapes and see how impressive I can really be."

Io, Dionysus!

No more protests! Universities haven’t been repressive enough. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

FLOP. zzzzzz...

A political cartoon depicting Trump, Musk, & the GOP Elephant feeding benefits such as SNAP, WIC, Medicare, Medicaid, & Social Security into a meat grinder. The grinder is pumping a sausage labeled "$42 Trillion Tax Cut" while hungry versions of Besos, Zuckerman, and the Monopoly Money Guy watch.

The March Madness

The mating period of European hares starts end of January, beginning of February and ends end of July, beginning of August. The height of the breeding season, is known as "March madness", when the normally nocturnal bucks are forced to be active in the daytime.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there.

The show must go on.

We must learn to resist

An unknown artist's depiction of La Lechuza, a woman in a white robe of owl feathers, a stick coming out from beneath the robe but the woman otherwise invisible. The head is hawkish and owl-like all at once yet has a mop of black hair.

La Lechuza is a white owl who is in fact a witch, appearing as a massive raptor who preys on souls at night from the Rio Grande Valley on down. Any white owl could be her: so beware. #FairytaleTuesday

Just going to leave this here should it become useful to anyone…

If Trump has declared himself King, then we already have our anthem:

🎶 There is a flame that never dies,
Even the darkest night will end & the sun will rise

Will you join in our crusade?
Who will be strong & stand with me?

Do you hear the people sing?
It is the future that they bring 🎶

Good morning. The dance, whatever that means to you, is worth fighting for.

“During the darkest days of the AIDS crisis, we buried our friends in the morning, protested in the afternoon and danced all night. The dance kept us in the fight because it was the dance we were fighting for.

A 19th century painting featuring a woman holding a book in one hand and resting her head on the other. In the background sits a man reading a paper. He says: What in the world radicalised you? She says: Reading history books and being born with basic human empathy

Empathy and kindness are not weaknesses, they’re acts of solidarity and resistance

Two large posters on off white paper with blue ink reading: NO TYRANTS! & NO KINGS! In large wood type font. There is a large image cut of a wooden printing press with a banner of text above it reading “THE TYRANTS FOE THE PEOPLES FRIEND”

I heard the NEA is only considering proposals related to 1776 & the USA’s 250th birthday & I was feeling intensely patriotic, so I’m printing these really big posters inspired *directly* by the Founding Fathers

The cut was carved from the masthead of a 19th century newspaper

The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free the your very existence is an act of rebellion. - Albert Camus

Photo of a black cat with the caption "Our cat has a magnet on his collar. He has brought many things in with him, including this spoon."

Are you feeling low on spoons today? Here, this kitty has brought you an extra one. Very good bebe.

A comic panel that says "Come, let Republican men guide your mind, body, and worth." With a woman responding "Go fuck yourself."

Keep resisting. No kings, no masters.

This is just to say

I have fired
the bureaucrats
throughout
your government

Even the ones
that were probably
keeping planes
in the air

Forgive me
I am not very smart
So efficiency
Much savings

Witch is so often the label men use to describe the fear of their own inadequacies. – Faith Dunmort, Barrow Wisdom Coven, 1975 #WitchSky

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.

I'm in the same boat. On SSDI for mental illness. I'm, frankly, terrified.

Lady moon, a woman in renaissance clothing holding a tripartite moon mask to her features. The text below says, re-enchantment is resistance.

And so is resistance. We need bread *and* roses.

Looking up at a wood utility pole and a stop sign. Beneath the STOP, someone penned ICE.

It’s a good day to Stop ICE.
