There is a wonderful thing happening in Boards of Canada world.  I hope 4/20 is the day [AGAIN].  I also hope there aren't mass suicides of those who were holding out until after this album drops, 'cause if we know anything about the Sandison brothers, they're going to give us what we need and what we deserve.  Realism and hope in the face of despair, always.

 

At this time, all I can say is:

Create.  Organize. Know who your people are. Stay alert.  Stay informed.  Don't ignore or get caught up in destructive personal shit or matters that have nothing to do with you. Question and hold your people accountable. Question and hold yourself accountable first.  Don't be beyond reproach. Ask yourself: Am I helping or hindering? If you're not helping, stay the fuck out of it, and find an appropriate way to help.  Contrarians are only useful if they're knowledgeable and wise, aware when they've lost an argument and adjust in a dignified way.  They're not useful just because someone decided they are good at arguing. In fact, giving too much credit and attention to idiots, or the uh, misguided (I'm trying, man), who simply use debating as a way to elevate themselves by oppressing others can be dangerous to a movement or org if they have an ounce of charisma.  Don't waste a lot of your time on those pretending to give a shit just to make themselves feel relevant.  Just keep in mind, you may not have the particular set of tools needed for that particular person, but most people can be persuaded or pushed in the right direction with unimpeachable facts, logic, and reason. And love and understanding, which take many forms.

Remember, this is not about short-term gratification or satisfaction, it is all to save us from ourselves in the long-term out of necessity, not only because it's right and just.

Be grateful for and engage with art in the worst and most oppressive of times.  Be thankful BoC has not given up either.  Don't feel guilty that (dark) whimsy, is still enjoyable.  Necessary, even.  

Which is probably why I've spent the last 4-5 months finally getting back to Korean Movies and television after about 6 years.  Korean culture is filled with wonderful dark whimsy which is why their content so addictive.

I will add the Discord servers once I can get back into my fucking account and check out the community. I left FB and am barely on IG, and I won't vouch for a community if I don't know anything about them (there are lots of great/useful entities who have communities filled with pickmes and shitheads).  I love this band immensely, but I don't think I'd be considered a Boardhead or whatever they call themselves, if they call themselves anything at all.  Nothing has made that more clear than the events of the last two weeks.  No disrespect intended at all, I just have no idea what the fuck they're casually talking about on the Reddit most of the time, but it's fun to read (mostly).

The Israel Footage the Media is TOO SCARED to Show You 

From Double-Down News and Empire Files

We already have cameras in our phones and laptops in our homes, cars and public spaces. I don't understand why you would ever voluntarily put up more surveillance devices in and around your home, your fucking "safe space" and then give access to external parties that have every reason to use it for profit and control.  That is insane to me. 

 "I say that like those are three different things." 

Benn Jordan - Time to Take Down your Smart Cameras

The "center" will very intentionally never try to understand us or come to our "side" (human rights are not a "side", they just are).  You can argue, struggle, capitulate, "compromise" (even though it's really capitulating, because the needle must always move right), entertain polite discussions, or even lively ones, but ultimately it will always come down to this: adherence to International and Human rights laws. If you believe in equality for all, you believe there are base level laws of humanity everyone, every state, every entity must abide by and must be enforced.  Completely full of shit, equivocating libs, moderates, whatever they gotta tell themselves to elevate themselves as the only one with "common sense" or to be seen as the "parent in the room", will never, ever believe in true equality.  Their problem, the reason why they are not remotely leftist and instead reside on the side they define as "the right", is because they always need to make excuses of bad behavior for themselves, their parents, their spouse, their kids, their neighbor, their pastor, so they don't have to deal with the whys and hows that might lead to accountability, and a possible turn toward the left.  This leads them to make excuses for politicians, bankers, governments, law enforcement, military and intelligence so they never have to ask the hows or whys that led to the current moment, and how they contributed to it. When we say arrest ALL of the war criminals,  ALL of the white collar criminals, we mean ALL.  We don't carve out exceptions for our favorite politicians, celebrities, companies, pundits, family members. We say try them all.  That's it.  That's what it all comes down to (fan-created, but I like it):

I came across this and fell in love with it.  It sounds so familiar to me, but I'm not sure if I've heard it before or not. 

 I don't know who needs to hear this, but they don't care if the charges don't stick or whether you're being detained unlawfully.  They don't care if they kidnap you illegally and eventually let you go, or the court finds you innocent. Or if they ship you off to a country you've never lived in.  Or if you are tortured and die somewhere along the way to proving your innocence or reclaiming your rights.  If you intentionally flood the system, you overload the system, blur lines, shift what is accepted, what is the norm. They're very intentional terrorists.  These are the tools of the oligarchs.  It's what's required to continue to artificially elevate them as exceptional beings, exempt from the reality of being human, always has been.  Upending your life, leaving you in financial ruin, terrorizing you, your family, your community, whoever, they very overtly don't care because that's the point.  In the prison/military/human trafficking industrial complex, they gain monetary and political capital off of the terror, on both ends, money that is used to further separate us from them. Physically, extrajudicially.  

The system is working as intended. You lose, no matter what.  You decide how much you lose. If you're lucky.  Old money acts instinctively, new money froths at the mouth and pisses their pants. None of this is new.  Only the technology and efficiency of oppression, mass murder and incarceration have changed.  Fascists and Nazis have come out of the closet and are being celebrated and propped up by the Epstein class and their press in 24 hour a day news cycles.  They don't care that you know laws, rules, dignity, integrity, decency have no place in their world.  The media is no longer an arm of the people, nor an opioid of the masses, it's simply a blunt tool of repression and brainwashing of a police state.  The people should have shut up, stopped poking around, and appreciated their treats, their stuff.  Why would you believe you have a right to not be exploited?  Whether you're age 0 or 125, you only have the agency you're allowed.  There's a reason billions of people are indoctrinated into believing that not only does obedience to the law equal true freedom, but that law doesn't come from the state or even your fellow man, it comes from a secret third place.

Every day, find a way to remind yourself that the people as a collective and our humanity are what drives us.  Human rights, justice, and dignity are what guide us.  Every rights violation and act of violence against us is an instance that will lead to freedom from tyranny of the greedy, weak and cowardly once and for all.

 

 

Great video for your normies, or really anyone because it's so concise.

Through our Debt Alleviation and Relief Effort (D.A.R.E.) campaign. It’s time to DARE to erase medical debt. Working in collaboration with Undue Medical Debt, LDSA plans to purchase and cancel about $2 million of Kentuckians’ medical debt, which would only take ~$11,000!
