I Will NEVER have anything to do with the Olympics ever again. Completely done.

I wash my hands of this shit.

Wer uns nicht spenden möchte, obwohl das sehr wichtig wäre, kann auch den Freund*innen in LA etwas geben. 😀

We’re an entirely volunteer organization. We are offering new, ETHICALLY SOURCED + MADE LA for a very limited time to help raise operational funds. We know LA28 and the Olympics don’t care where they source their goods. They openly collaborate with brands notorious for using sweatshop labor

15 years ago, a gang of anarchists, Indigenous land defenders, and assorted shit-disturbers took on the 2010 #Vancouver #Olympics and said: Fuck your colonial circus.

From chucking pies at politicians to wrecking corporate crap and smashing colonial symbols, we weren’t there to politely protest—we were there to disrupt.

I break down how we built an anti-capitalist, anti-colonial resistance that didn’t ask for permission and sure as hell didn’t apologize. This is a firsthand look at how it all went down—and why that fight still matters.

📽️ Watch it. Share it. Remember it.

100 mile Last Eastway Ride. 11 11 06
Local heroes on 'Oxo Hill'. By Martin Slavin
Eastway will be closed from 13th November 2006. This is to enable the ODA to start work to prepare the site ahead of development taking place. According to the ODA the preparatory works do not require planning permission and they maintain they do not therefore contravene any planning regulations. There will be no public access to the circuit from this time…

How on earth does anyone think this is a good idea? In 1984 the studios and many other businesses closed for two weeks. Of course, their employees weren’t paid. Workers returned to discover nearby restaurants, dependent on worker’s lunch trade, had closed their doors permanently. Don’t even get me started on the traffic. LA is virtually unnavigable as it is. This is just another costly waste of resources that benefits only the rich.

LA 2028

Welcome to LA28, the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games in Los Angeles.

Fuck the Olympics, btw.

My prediction as of May, 2014: "I see "peak Olympics" in terms of spending coming within the decade. Possibly sooner."

Looking at the 2020 games (still upcoming), and their prospects.

I'd made this prediction at least as of 2014 on the late, unlamented (though in part Wayback Machine archived) Google+
