If you're not familiar, she's from my webcomic... Rain, a coming-of-age dramedy about a young trans girl trying to be seen as herself in high school. After an 11 year run, the story is over, but I still do a lot with her. ^_^
Please, check it out!

David Graeber and Andrej Grubačić, in an introduction to Mutual Aid:
"When Mutual Aid was first released, in 1902, there were few scientists courageous enough to challenge the idea that capitalism and nationalism were rooted in human nature or that the authority of states was ultimately inviolable. Most who did were written off either as crackpots or, if they were too obviously important to be dismissed in this way, like Albert Einstein, as "eccentrics" whose political views had about as much significance as their unusual hairstyles. The rest of the world though is moving along. Will the scientists -- even, possibly, the social scientists -- eventually follow?
We write this introduction during a wave of global popular revolt against racism and state violence, as public authorities spew venom against "anarchists" in much the way they did in Kropotkin's time. It seems a peculiarly fitting moment to raise a glass to that old "despiser of law and private property" who changed the face of science in ways that continue to affect us today. [...]
We find ourselves -- once again -- surprised by just how deeply we agree with its central argument. The only viable alternative to capitalist barbarism is stateless socialism, a product, as the great geographer never ceased to remind us, "of tendencies that are apparent now in the society" and that were "always, in some sense, imminent in the present."
To create a new world, we can only start by rediscovering what is and has always been right before our eyes.
Kropotkin was a biologist. May we come close to the kind of radical ideas he brought to the world in anything we do.

DNC protests
The news will call fucking anything it doesn't like "violent". The most violent thing at the DNC the past week was probably my tummy ache. I guess there were the people who breached the security barrier, but nobody got hurt. Cops just arrested people because they could.
People just like depicting Chicago as a "dangerous place" because of barely-concealed bigotry, classism, and hatred of people with substance abuse problems.
they call themselves "protest marshalls" or some shit and they line up to protect the Nazbol people and shitheads before cops notice. Great solidarity, fuckers.

re: nazism
when this clique showed up I remember saying "oh fuck here comes the Discord" and I think I nailed it there.
I keep worrying about her but then I peel back the blanket and she's like, hey, what are you doing here??
re: nazism
Oh also it turns out the Khmer Rouge cosplayer from the other day is with the nazis. Who would have guessed?
Got this picture of them together with a Che Guevara flag while Nazbol astolfo was saying lots of offensive stuff.

Programmer and IT girl. Pseudo-vegan for the environment (-avocados +oysters). Very uncomfortable with astrology. Please don't call me "dude", "bro", "man", etc. Radical egalitarian anarchist, hierarchies and hate are incompatible with a free and equal life . For real though, I'm not gonna tell you to vote or post about political spectacle that is outside our control and in-actionable. Aiming to have a similar amount of internal contradictions as my environment like Ashby's Law of Requisite variety. I am probably stoned on some variety and dosage of cannabinoids if I am awake if you hate stoners just dni. I am also a trans woman so I *checks notes* meme about femininity and feminization sometimes. After dark account at: @thufieplus but read my bio there before sending a follow request even if we are already mutuals here. Oh and just to be clear because I think I see other white people on here trying to fake not being white under a bunch of other text, I'm just a disoriented white girl trying her best.
