It's been a few months, how's it going?

Seems I’m not a Leftist because I admit to voting for Harris. News to me. It’s actually a little insane to me. But getting berated by someone about it and responding with “help me learn then, show me the way” and getting even more heat? You’re not here to help grow the cause, you just want to yell.

Hey, it’s above 0 again. Nothing like a heatwave.

Finally starting to see some good things from people at my UU. Minds are changing, it’s great to see. Time to read more General Strike literature, the time to build something is now. Might as well lead the charge.

Fuck Donald Trump and his administration

Looking for a way to help our neighbors in Minnesota? @mn50501.bsky.social has put together a mutual and community aid list. ❤️ linktr.ee/MutualAidMN5...

Rocking out some Pro Drums is melting the tension away. Still getting better too. I should screenshot some scores for you all. And maybe this is the cure for my end of week rage - smashing the shit out of things to kickass music. Hell, I could even stream it. It’s how it all started anyways.

GENERAL STRIKE U.S. TEACH-IN Tomorrow | 5PM PST / 8PM EST meet.jit.si/organizedsol... We’re not striking against just one job or one politician. We’re striking against the system itself, and everyone who profits from keeping us divided, exploited, and oppressed. #GeneralStrike #Solidarity

Ooh, The Omega Directive. It’s been a little bit. #StarTrek #Voyager

Some of us can’t live with such constraints. If they’re going to come get me anyways, why not speak of how I want to blind every ice agent with battery acid and then beat them with a metal pole. But they’re all the same as my tormentors, and they all deserve it. *stares 1000 yards again*

i should stop posting before my grief and fury say something i can’t take back.

Classic Saturday morning rage/despair combo. Every fucking week. Why

Revenue streams? You sound like my dad. Fuck him anyways.

The Associated Press@apnews.com · 8mo ago

The NCAA unearthed another revenue stream when Division I leaders approved patches for uniforms in a move that could generate millions to fund athletic departments that are looking for new ways to pay players.

Look, I believe in casts, but if a parent has strongly-held anti-cast beliefs, they should be allowed to let their kid’s broken arm grow back all floppy and fucked up, even to the point of lifelong, debilitating pain. And that’s not child abuse because a kid’s bones are their parents’ property

Final Fantasy 6 is the best Final Fantasy game because it’s the one that considers Sasquatch instrumental in saving the world

Trying to scan crap for work, and wondering why must I sign in online to scan from a printer across the office. If the internet is down can I even scan? Who even designed this garbage?

Had to listen to this one first. Basically note for note. Good stuff #Megadeth #Metal #Musicsky

It has arrived

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

In the Pale Moonlight, let’s go! #DS9

If you do not want a world built on exploitation or an economy divided into those who own and those who work to survive you have already adopted the the communist position whether you have adopted the name or not.

MUST READ thread before Monday night's forecasted G4 / SEVERE geomagnetic storm. Auroras could be seen as far south as the U.S.-Mexico border at times. Widespread mid-latitude displays are possible. Here's what you need to know to have a successful aurora chase tonight! 🧵 #heliophysics #aurora

Good summary of “don’t give him what he wants” from relatively comfortable white liberals.

Just a couple more weeks until Winter League

It's time we have a real worker's party in the USA. The DNC isn't coming to save us, they are just hoping we hand them the reigns so they can push a similar agenda with more smug decorum. Until then we need to be heard and set our terms. People>profit #GeneralStrike #Jan23

Thinking back to growing up on MTV, and realizing it was just massive amounts of music therapy I was doing for myself. Once it was gone then things turned bad in my life. It was my only support, my family never helped in ways I needed. And I still need it, I got broken before I had a chance to be.
