Someone Asked For Stuff To Read About Anarchism And Where To Get Started Really Doing Something. I Don’t

Someone asked for stuff to read about anarchism and where to get started really doing something. I don’t think they’d want their username posted publicly so here is my answer without the question attached:

For something to read about Anarchism, the book that’s always at the top of my list is Anarchy Works by Peter Gelderloos. It’s online for free here: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/peter-gelderloos-anarchy-works/

As for how to get started, probably the best first step is to find people who are already doing something and ask if they need help. Maybe there’s a local Mutual Aid Group, a soup kitchen, a group organizing protests? Don’t expect to or try to quickly do high-risk high-impact stuff with strangers. That kind of thing takes trust, getting to know each other and learning some basics about how to keep yourself and others safe.

If there’s no people near you or if the people near you are not people you wanna work with, the second best thing is to find at least one other person you can get along with who also wants to actually do something. Then talk about what you could do together and put some of it into action. Again, try small low-risk things first, get to know each other, learn together, and gradually move to more ambitious plans. Check out 30 Antifa Actions for inspiration: https://antifainternational.tumblr.com/post/175437159827/30-antifa-actions

Finally: try to hang on to your privacy, even during low risk actions. If you’re helping in a soup kitchen, it’s tempting to share your full name, pose for a picture on their facebook, tell people where you live, talk about it on your real-name social media account… & if you only ever wanna work in a soup kitchen, you can do all that. But if you think there’s a chance you’ll want to move on to some higher risk actions, it’s a good idea to enter the community under a nickname, to keep your face offline and to not talk about activism on social media accounts connected to your real name. Keeping a low profile can be a great asset later on.

damn, your comment about where did the carbon come from has got me wondering why the earth's crust is so... ordered, if you see what I mean. like, you don't have just tiny particles of elements that happened to react with each other, in a random mostly-homogeneous mix--you have large areas of the same type of rock, large veins of iron or whatnot, and so on. like going with like, to an extent.

too lumpy and solid to combine and homogenise? or it combined and then separated due to different densities and varying levels of heat? I have no idea where planets came from, I only live on one.

DoorDash workers are going on strike tomorrow (July 31st, 2021). They’re demanding tip transparency and a base pay of at least $4.25 per hour. Don’t cross the picket line.

Noticed Something A Little Funky In The World Around You And Want To Figure Out What's Up? Especially

Noticed something a little funky in the world around you and want to figure out what's up? Especially if there might be something you ought to be doing about it? Not sure what information sources to trust these days? If you're in the US, federal agencies like NOAA, USGS, EPA and more collect massive amounts of scientific data every day, much of which is publicly available online - if you know where to look.

A PDF version with clickable links is available for free on my itchio page (quakeandquiver); I'll add a direct link in a reblog.

And we’re back to the beginning

And We’re Back To The Beginning
And We’re Back To The Beginning

Israel attacked worshipers at AlAqsa mosque on Friday prayer with sticks, rubber bullets, and gas bombs. Remember this is what started the entire events on the previous 11 days. They attacked worshippers at AlAqsa mosque.

Note, Friday prayer is the group pray of the week is Islam, that’s why you see a lot of people. I can’t help but think of this a provocatively deliberate choice of day.

And look at them! Do they look like a threat ?!!

P.S : this happened about 14 hours ago and they retreated, but unfortunately I was too ill today to hold the phone. Even though Israeli police retreated. You must know and see this.

You can find more #Israelbreaksthetruce on Twitter.

This Is For Those Who Are Curious And You All Out In Ferguson. I’m Going To Be Attaching Some Info

This is for those who are curious and you all out in Ferguson. I’m going to be attaching some info graphics (one may seem needless due to circumstances but I’m adding it anyway.) I have some more info I’d like to put into a better to use format ( alot of them are screen grabs and I’d like to put in clearer and slur free language.) If you want me to send anything I got or any info I have ( I’m a Criminal Justice student) don’t hesitate to ask. 

I have seen a few of these but a post with them compiled may help more. I will be editing these as I get it all prepared I’ll use the Ferguson Protest Aid tag for any updates I do. Stay safe everyone.

“If I have one message to give to the secular American people, it’s that the world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don’t know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same.”

Marjane Satrapi, 2005.

I’ve been thinking about this quote a lot lately.
