Running unauthorized military drills for “urban warfare training” in Alta/Pasadena in the middle of the night with no warning to the residents of that area… the exact same residents who are also direct survivors of the Eaton Canyon Fires…. a blatant scare tactic to intimidate citizens and civilians who did not vote for a fascist nazi.

Disgusting behavior. Someone get me out of here.

I’m not being a bitch. It’s just that people are fucking stupid. I promise it’s that simple.

The problem is… will capitalism and white hegemonics allow it to happen? It’s also not that sweeping of a vision. Just common sense. As usual.

Holy shit, i did it, lol. It looks terrible, but it works.

For people who haven't been keeping up with this project, I've been doing ceramics for a couple years now, and recently people kept tagging me in posts about a European feminist hacker collective that was making circuit boards out of court they dug out of the ground and fired in a campfire.

After having an epiphany about some experimental copper ceramics glazes i made last year, i thought i would see if i could solder to them, and i found that i could.

Sooo ... I made a stamp and stamped out some really basic boards for an astable multivibrator (two blinky lights) circuit. I filled the recessed traces with copper powder and had them fired in our pottery kiln.

Now i have ceramic circuit boards.

@kate @ghouston @DarkMatterZine not a coup like the traditional ones America pulled in South America/Africa, but a political influence coup. Still a coup. I believe it.

@P__X @Brokar yet another issue. Why is a non American telling a Black American about the anti Black racism I experience?

Are you honestly fucking insane or inherently bias. Or both maybe. Because the fact that some random international white thinks they can speak up over the Black women who tried to save the planet is just dumb.

@disorderlyf that’s pretty much exactly what it is, depending on where you landed. Hope it shifts for you.

Jesus fucking Christ.

You people will always show your true intentions without any effort *on my part. I just have to EXIST (and be correct/share actual experience and fact), and your own inherent bias and guilt will not allow you to just shut the fuck up and sit in the reality that YOU created. That reality being pretty much the end of humanity.

@Brokar again. Shut the fuck up. Respectfully. Pretending that antiblack hatred and misogynoir isn’t violently prevalent in America is absolutely insane and once again proves what level of denial you live in. The actual fact you’re sitting trying to pretend her race did not play a major factor is actual fucking gaslighting. I’m not interested in discussing this with you. Please stop talking to me, stop harassing me, leave me ALONE.

@Brokar I do not know you, I dont follow you, this statement was not aimed at you in any way. The fact you would sit here and feel the very unnecessary need to fucking correct me on my lived experience as a Black woman in America instead of perhaps, shutting the fuck up, listening and understanding another perspective shows the inherent bias that made it impossible for Harris to ever have a chance.

You replied with disrespect & intention to silence. I need you to shut the fuck up. Respectfully.
