So I want to ramble a sec about finding some peace amidst the chaos. This thread might get a little content-warningy. So feel free to mute.

We need to take care of each other and see the struggles and realize that we all need each other if we're gonna get through this. Because not all of us get to fuck off to Berlin.

I'm actively trying to use this space for something more than politics and fighting Nazis. I want to be actively and visibly proud of who I am. I want my story to be more than Charlottesville. I want to do the things I set out to do. I didn't set out to fight fascism.

I sometimes criticize the leftist movement for being more there when it comes to the showdowns in the street but not being there for tending the metaphorical (and literal!) community garden. I can apply that criticism to myself, too.

Taking on Nazis isn't even my best skill, which is saying something because goddamn do I live rent free in their heads. My beloved friend Veronica tells us to bring our best gifts to the struggle. So I'm gonna bring mine and start tending a garden or two.

So I may be adding less political commentary going forward, and focus more on constructive examples of building a world where hierarchies and power structures don't keep us from those people and things we love. Never fear, I will still be taking on Nazis! But more other stuff.

I love you all. Thank you for being there with me through all this.

With all due respect, ever wonder why the hell the Wall Street elite would allow such weapons so close to them and not in the hands of their police guardians?

I have. And I think I agree with you.
