idk who needs to hear this but january is all about rest and hibernation. february is all about self-romance and love. march is when we prepare for the new year and april is when we spring into big action.
Capitalists swear competition is the engine of progress. But the moment capital scales, it stops competing. It buys, merges, absorbs, consolidates. The system’s first instinct is to eliminate the very thing it claims to depend on.
Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

At some point you just have to assume that he’s an actively evil person, right? This was a massacre of mostly women and children, largely unarmed, one of the most shameful events in a period of American history that was full of shameful events. You can’t defend it.
FLOTILLA UPDATE: Last night we sailed in Greek territorial waters for our safety. Shortly, we will be joined by six additional boats from Greece & begin the final stretch across the Mediterranean to Gaza 🇵🇸
Spirits on board the boats remain high, encouraged by news of a second Italian naval ship & the sight of UN-backed NGO, Emergency 🛥️
More updates as they happen.
