the thing most people, and most notably white people but this applies across the board, is that resistance to oppression is neither a marathon nor a sprint but a diverse and multi-faceted effort, much of which will result in no victories whatsoever
but you do it anyway, the little things
but you do it anyway, the little things

We must talk to their experience, we cannot expect them to research even one concept to try and match us, the numbers just don't work out.
But I'm just yapping, now.
Here’s our events calendar. https://lu.ma/TheCollective Anyone from your collective is more than welcome in ours! 🥂🥂
you will not be remembered
no one will give a fuck
your sacrifice is inconsequential, unless it isn't
and it will only be inconsequential because of the sacrifice of others who will be similarly unremembered
you do it anyway
there are no stars of this show
you will not be in the history books
you will not even be found in a revision of the history books
you must and will do it anyway, whatever it is
this is the work
even, especially if nobody knows your name
to be unknown is to be victorious by those who have persevered with the benefit of your sweat, your investment, your passion
we can only strive to be known and useful in the moment
i've been thinking about this for weeks because of the Trump 2.0 #resistance malaise and truly the best thing you can do is find your people
the little things matter! nobody will throw you a parade, and that's fine
