@mooncake OMG, that first one is such brilliant graffiti for the setting.

Santa comrade, fill my stocking up with mutual aid, not afraid
To join in on the fight,
Santa comrade, let’s start the revolution tonight.

Come and trim the productions’ means
With fully automated gay space luxury,
The workers do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in us

Santa comrade, come and crush the bourgeoisie with me
The proletariat’s braced
Santa comrade, so start the revolution tonight!

Santa comrade, slip some communism under the tree, anarchy,
Let’s go smash up the state,
Santa Comrade, and start the revolution tonight.

Santa comrade, one thing I really do need, burn the deeds,
All private property’s theft
Santa comrade, So start the revolution tonight.

Think of all we wouldn’t miss
If we just got rid of all the capitalists,
Next year it would be awfully good,
If you'll check off my Christmas list.

@Si1997 Yeah, they are. This is how South Dakota effectively banned abortion— if no one does the work to fight it, the law can’t be overturned as unconstitutional. The fuckers know exactly that their laws are illegal, but they trust that they’ll “save babies” (read: destroy existing lives) in the meantime.

@Si1997 They didn’t ban abortion outright, just post-12 week dilation and evacuation... and who is to stop them without a lengthy and expensive legal battle? That’s what I mean about keeping us busy, ground down, and broke.

Today, I start repainting our bedroom, from a very bright orange to a more subdued terra cotta.

This is how they keep us busy, ground down, and broke— someone now has to fight this. Many people who can’t afford another child, who may already be working 16 hour days, 7 days a week, with no paid leave and no health insurance, will now have to travel, with limited funds, to other states to access medical care.

Fuck this and donate to abortion access funds in Ohio.

Doing a massive reorganizing of our home right before the year is out feels really good and right.

It’s the darkest day of the year and it’s 60° F and pouring outside.

On the Winter Solstice. In New York City.

I am trying to find good vegan food blogs, and it feels like they all fit into 1 of 3 categories:

1) Attempts to make vegan versions of comfort/junk food I don't even like when it's not vegan

2) Is all ~*thinspirational*~ with shit like "no bake, gluten free, protein rich post work out 'cookie-dough' bites" and "clean eating" language that is hella triggering for someone, like me, who has a history of disordered eating

3) Basic-AF non-Western recipes I already know

@dankwraith It's that way for all media criticism these days. There's no actual criticism, it's just a paragraph or 4 that boils down to answering "spend money, y/n?"

But! I’m really excited to finally get it all done and have a home that I can bring people into without feeling like it’s a cluttered, tiny mess, AND we’re not having to spend an extra $500-750/month on rent to upgrade to a 2 br in order to accommodate my office space.

Also, it has always been my dream to live in a place where the walls were lined from floor to ceiling with books.

So, the last few days, we’ve made a concerted effort to make our home (of almost 3 years) more cozy by taking better advantage of the space... starting with super tall bookshelves in the living room, more vertical storage for everything, and we’re going to repaint the bedroom to be a more soothing terra cotta instead of the bright mandarin orange it has been.

Of course, I was sick for the first 2 days and now my partner is sick, and we absolutely can’t do this things alone.
