@hummingrain I miss the era of translating the power of the machine to help people. Instead, our commons has become akin to the matrix. Harvesting energy for some opaque purpose. IT. DOESN'T. HAVE. TO. BE. THIS. WAY.
The thing I love about Fully Automated Luxury Queer Space Communism is every time you say/toot/think it, every injection of it into the noosphere shifts the Overton Window to the left and decreases the Martian Muskland colony's likelihood of being just a transpanetary billionaire's Silicon Valley exurb with airlocks.
It's like the verbal equivalent of Grimes.
#taxamazon struggle
yesterday i was at city hall in the morning and at a meeting in the evening
today i phone banked, which i hate
tomorrow, city hall again before work, flyering after work
saturday, March on Amazon, Seattle Central College, 11am-?
sorry not sorry, fuck the police, etc etc. this still feels right.
food
had lovely delicious sushi with @mawr and @kelseyhusky and Bird who I don't know if she has a Mastodon? and played with CORGI BABY PUPPY omg so cute and I may be adopting a Japanese maple seedling next time I go over there! ^____^ also I may want a Mini Cooper now.
hey comrades, Amazon is trying to bully Seattle out of taxing a _tiny_ fraction of its profits. come out on Saturday to show them we won't stand for that, and to pressure the city council into passing the EHT!

seize the media
i'm reading this blog post from @ajroach42 about DIY media and all i can think about is queer zines
> At this point, I feel like the act of creating media outside of the control of a multi-million dollar corporation is a radical act in and of itself.

dreams
so now I kinda want to write the story that goes with this ending! XD but as I said, it's *definitely* an Afro-futurism SF story, and I feel extremely unqualified to write in that genre, as it were. :/ so consider the idea released into the world, for y'all do to as you wish with it.
and that concludes my dreamstuff writeup!
