If you want your masked goons, your mass arrests, your internal enemies, and your cultural purge, then you'll need to wear the Nazi sash.
That's the deal, people. I don't make the rules; history does.
The unreality machine whirring and whining more loudly than ever.
Those flag draped coffins you're seeing? They're not actually real or important. You'd know that if you were a true patriot, but you're not.
If you want your masked goons, your mass arrests, your internal enemies, and your cultural purge, then you'll need to wear the Nazi sash.
That's the deal, people. I don't make the rules; history does.
Resist much, obey little.
Live in truth.
Hold the line.
That is all.

“Our sacred rule of law is under attack
“Journalism is under attack.
Universities are under attack.
Freedom of speech is under attack.
And insidious fear is reaching through our schools, our businesses, our homes, and into our private thoughts. The fear to speak, in America.”

I'm reframing my manner of describing what I do in a day. Fuck achievements and fuck productivity. I'm here giving of my love and care to important efforts and tending to things that require my attention and energy.
Numbers and metrics are but tools, not a way of life. Sustaining the well-being of the spaces and living things around me is what's important.
Language carries so much weight and can be a double-edged sword. Using it to build and support is preferable using it to control!
Wisconsin’s governor Tony Evers said on Friday that every American should be concerned about
“chilling” suggestions from Donald Trump’s top border adviser that he could be arrested over guidance he issued to state employees about what to do if confronted by federal immigration agents.
Asked about Evers’s memo, Tom Homan, Trump’s border czar, said:
“Wait to see what’s coming.”
“I’m not afraid,” Evers, a Democrat, said in response in an extraordinary video posted on YouTube.
“I’ve never once been discouraged from doing the right thing and I will not start today.”
The shutdown and cancellation of so many grants and government programs is a disaster in itself.
It also demonstrates that the USA under Trump/Musk is no longer in the business of honoring contracts, upholding commitments, or keeping promises.
This is antithetical to democracy and legitimate governance since SOCIAL CONTRACT is at the heart of both.
When governance is capricious and power is unresponsive to civic concerns and juridical interventions, #democracy has jumped the shark. #uspol
