We're living the dystopias of our (grand) parents and I'm so sad that the same will be true from the perspective of future generations.
Nae king! Nae quin!
Nae laird! Nae master!
We willna' be fooled again!
Most people use he/him as pronouns to refer to me, with which I'm ok, but if you like others that's fine with me as well.

What did you get?
This world, in which multiple genocides are being committed simultaneously and imperialist empires have obliterated anything that even remotely resembles an international legal order.
This world where the top 0.1% of the richest people have hidden more money from taxes than the poorest 50% own, and Jeff Bezos—just like his billionaire buddies—decided once again today that world hunger doesn’t need to be solved.
This world where a woman is murdered by a partner or family member every 10 minutes, and one in three women has experienced sexual violence.
This world where the climate catastrophe is happig now, while governments seem to have given up even the pretense of wanting to do anything about it.
That is the world Rutger Bregman describes as populated mainly by kind and cooperative people. It is a joyful message for those who want to hear it, but above all, it is pissing on the suffering of others from a tower built out of privilege.
For God’s sake, go do something useful instead of writing or reading this.
De genocide in Gaza is nooit gestopt, de blokkade van Gaza is niet opgeheven.
In het voorjaar gaat de Global Sumud Flotilla opnieuw proberen de blokkade te doorbreken.

Bij de vorige poging was Roos Ykema aan boord en ook deze keer gaat er iemand uit Friesland mee. (Even geheimzinnig tot de afvaart 🤫)
Als je financieel iets kunt bijdragen aan deze actie, dan is dat heel erg fijn:

Stephen Graham Jones - The Buffalo Hunter Hunter
“What I am is the Indian who can’t die.
I’m the worst dream America ever had.”
Set mostly in the final stages of the genocide that birthed the empire of blood, the horrorstory Graham Jones has crafted is great writing.
I won’t spoil but heaps of praise and highly recommended.
Even to people who are not into supernatural horror. Because in a way, from a certain perspective it is no supernatural horror, but a true crime story of that despised empire.
Just look for Marias Massacre, for instance here:

Up there with his best, which for me are ‘Growing Up Dead in Texas’ and ‘The Least of My Scars’.
Really. Read this book.

Tomorrow is first and foremost International Workers’ Day aka Labour Day aka May Day.
It is also Bandcamp Friday a day that some capitalists steal less from workers.
So why not celebrate with a great album that has a cover that could be a banner in a May Day Parade:
2009's 'Hospice' by the Antlers.
In the hospice a romance grows between a hospice worker and a terminally ill patient suffering from bone cancer. Ofcourse its doomed.

RE: @georgetakei@universeodon.com
So does competence
all wars have to go
all oppression has to to go
all governments have to go
A massive haul, as quite a few releases are 'Pay What You Want' so I could squeeze 10 releases in my budget 🥳
