I once accidentally came up with another conscious voice in my head & we decided to govern through the 12 traditions of Codependents Anonymous. She also had specific qualities I'd chosen 3 weeks prior as qualities I chose to believ

There's also the added issue that binary logic (what most people use when they say "logic") is only slightly less constrained than unary logic and is insufficient for modeling reality. Without uncertainty logic, the wisdom av

Rampant open air community building for learning how to care for one another. Underground railroads for moving people to safety. Learning armed self defense. We're literally in a country that is setup to become a prison & the fence

Don't blame anymore because blame is an act of supremacy. Responsibility says it's shared to varying degrees through various classes of equivalence among all. The thieves are trying to eat or feed people in the context of oppressi

Rioting has its place, but I think we're at a point where that's become somewhat performative & police are now militarized with Trump holding a good bit of the slack on their leash. Find the underground railroads. Build commun

People in this country, across class lines, are addicted to their likes/dislikes being catered to, particularly in challenging times. The issue is deeply cultural & until it's being worked on, solidarity is key: serving people

Desensitization is only one stage of it. It's not permanent & requires dissociation from reality/humanity on some level. But that stuff is likely to come back and haunt one in some way. If not, it's likely a symptom of so

The Free Palestine movement has grown on TikTok in ways it hasn't on American-owned platforms because it's so heavily censored on American apps. It is the censoring of genocides across the world that TikTok bypasses. Why this is d

Thanks for the encouragement! I care for a 6-year old I've nurtured through anarchic principles. This feeling, if it can go missing, is reignited by things they say and normalized forms of childhood oppression they experience/witn
