Aisling "the bastard of earth" FawnThinking about the semiotics of street stickers. A weathered sticker on a telephone pole indicates that you can put up a sticker and it will remain undisturbed long enough to gain some weathering. A hand-drawn sticker reminds you that you don't need a factory to make stickers. A sticker made from a mailing label suggests that mailing labels are easy to acquire. (They are in fact free at US post offices.) All of this completely independent of the message of the sticker itself.
This is why I tend to be lenient toward even some of the more libbed-out stickers in my city, because regardless of their deficiencies in radicalism they still send the message that you can be disobedient
I still destroyed all the ones comparing Trump to Monica Lewinsky from a few months back though. Those ones are actively harmful enough that their existence is unjustified. Leave Monica alone.
Do listen to her podcast though. I don't know a lot about it but I listened to the first episode and liked it.
Ms. Rachel Andry (Isn't Real)@aisling libs will never forgive Monica for [checks notes] getting sexually assaulted by a powerful man who paid zero consequences for it and then refusing to shut up about it
@aisling if anything, Trump is analogous to Bill Clinton - but blue MAGA aren't in any way ready for that conversation

@aisling sideways reminded me that there's an infowars sticker near here that i should do something about
@blaurascon oh damn i didn't know infowars was still a thing
🩷 Stella @aisling all I can think of is when stella was hanging out with a friend in the city and said friend saw a magnetic fridge sticker thing in the lift of a KFC and she just grabbed it and said “oh cool free sticker”
@aisling did you know that the magnetic furry fridge stickers in the lifts of random KFCs are free and you can just grab them and take them home?
