No cuts. No crimes. No kidnap. No tariffs. No cruelty. No silence.

Hideous. Curdles the kindness in my soul. These people are making life a living hell for all of us (per the wishes of their masters), so I suggest we make life a living hell for them personally until we force them to abandon their mission to destroy. Harass, harass, harass. Not a moment’s peace.

For those who are afraid or unable to do full tax-resistance…If you, file for an extension on your federal filing (until October). Tell Trump et al that you are waiting to see sanity restored to the federal government, corruption halted. This could be our most powerful collective lever. Pass it on.

A lot of us Americans are vehemently opposed to this hostile takeover of our country. Like Mary Trump said recently: we are observing and strategizing. Soon, we will get to action. It will be swift, unexpected, it will be overwhelming and impossible to ignore. We are taking our country back.

Medicaid recipients: send your unpaid medical bills to your closest Republican Congressperson. They are now responsible for the cost of your care. Your life matters to us all.

Somebody arrest Trump, Vought, Musk. Sure, it’s a constitutional crisis, but hardly a bigger one than the current maelstrom.

Defend refugee migrant families in your area (and legal immigrants being persecuted) — hide them in your homes, safe-house them, transport them away from the claws of ICE.

Acting U.S. Attorney Edward Martin (Trump Appointee) is claiming that public workers who resist the seizing of classified information by Musk and DOGE are breaking the law. He is preparing to direct the FBI against those public workers standing their ground. Protect these people!

If you need to travel to a different place of peace and magic for a minute or two, I offer you this... audiomack.com/gavainuprich...

Any government worth its salt would be stopping Trump in his tracks. That is not happening. It’s up to us.

Donald Trump is a manifestly evil office-holder who is enacting a deeply unpopular and tyrannical series of disastrous orders. Flat-out defiance is needed. Officials need to ignore the orders. Citizens need to organize the biggest collective tax resistance movement, and general strikes now.

Not an inauguration. A usurpation by lies and deceit. Evil has risen. There are days and reasons for legitimate insurrection, defiance. Let us not squander more time and let Trump get the jump. Plan your participation in the resistance. The battle has started.

May the holidays of winter kindle a warm fire of joy in your hearts…

Resistance requires dedicated and disciplined practice and work of thrust and parry maneuvers, mutual aid networks to supplant people’s dependency chains (and therefore our vulnerabilities). It needs cohesive and orchestrated strategy. There is precious little time. Every day counts. 1/2

I am a middle-aged white man, and I am enraged that other white men are seeking to dismantle structures of safety, decency, kindness, respect, love, compassion, and care. I will not stand by while they terrorize the world.

Elon Musk, we put you on notice. You and your pal Vivek may think that your psycho-fantasy "department" gives you authority to shred the regulations and standards that encode our right relationship to each other...wrong. 1/3

Mapping and studying the paranormal in Pittsburgh

If #SkinwalkerRanch wants to take its investigation of possible spacetime anomalies to the next level of precision and entertain relativistic hypotheses, it needs one of these: m2lasers.com/quantum-grav...

Taking the first steps in organizing to fundraise $400k to purchase and repair a beautiful large stone church building in Carrick neighborhood, to become a nonprofit community and arts center, theater, auditorium, place of real social networking and mutual aid, transformative experiences.

This is surprisingly beautiful! And, adds a whole new dimension to contact improv! 😂 www.youtube.com/watch?v=ISk5...

There is a crisis of compassion in this country. People tuned out, deceived, enraged, overwhelmed...this is the consequence of the limits of our old way of caring, and the need for a new mode of caring that grows in scale without losing potency.

I do not support — and I never will support — mass deportation.

Making plans for community and arts in the Pittsburgh south side.

Grassroots are very hard to tear up. Some grasses can regrow from the smallest remaining rhizome. It is here the #Resistance will flourish.
