Had not expected to be pulled into the Boston Pride parade but as soon as a group saw my double-sided LED #NoKings protest sign I got abducted, but in a good, non-ICE way. Happy to Ally Up on a day of inclusion with Liberty and Justice for All. I got my steps in and my batteries held up.
The gallery is just as responsible for this incident as the tourists.
Who the hell leaves a priceless, crystal, chair, just sitting out on the floor with not even some rope and stanchions to cordon it off for its protection?
I mean, the tourist is an idiot, but the gallery curators are fucking morons!
#NoKings Survived the urban hellscape of the SFBA east bay — helicopter gunships, killer drones, wave after wave of cyborg soldiers coming at us, unstoppable 😱😝
Yeahno. It was quite a large crowd in Fremont where I went, but the energy was almost 100% positive. In addition to the large number of people marching, holding signs, etc, there were huge numbers of people driving by and honking. The two major dangers out there were sunburn and dehydration. I took a number of pictures and video
How To Check Disk Health In Linux: A Beginners Guide
“Your computer’s disk drive stores all your important files. Photos, documents, videos, and everything lives on your disk. But what happens when your disk starts to fail? You could lose everything. Worry not! Linux has built-in tools to check your disk health. You can spot disk-related problems early and save your data.”
Smartmontools is a package on Linux that provides tools for monitoring and managing the health of storage devices—such as hard drives and SSDs—using the built-in Self-Monitoring, Analysis, and Reporting Technology (S.M.A.R.T.) system found in most modern drives.
But other tools are also covered such as badblocks, fsck, and the graphical user interface app GNOME Disks.

Cuba, a developing country with inherited disadvantages from colonialism and neocolonialism, faces unique challenges due to the US-imposed economic blockade.
The blockade significantly limits Cuba's access to financing, technology, and external sources of income.
Cuba's ability to sustain itself and advance social development under such conditions is remarkable, considering the goals and actions of its aggressors.

Give this a careful read. This appears to be now the predominant sentiment in Iran. It’s almost comical Netanyahu talking about Iranians “rising up”. Clearly no idea how people in most of the global south feel about their own history, pain, and heritage.
#NoKings #SantaCruz #California Lots of people, lots of smiles. No police, no violence. Crowd: "Whose streets? Our streets!" Organizers: "Please stay on the sidewalks!" Crowd: "Whose sidewalks? Our sidewalks!"
#Seattle #NoKings I can't know how many are here but it's in the thousands. Just crossing Cal Anderson Park and getting onto Pine has taken an hour. The last time that happened was the Women's March.
This Pride Month, there are many reasons you might want to protest & fight for your rights.
If you do decide to join the action, make sure to prepare properly to keep yourself safe.
Your smartphone is an essential tool to organize and report, but it can also make you vulnerable to the mass surveillance many protests are targeted with.
Your phone is an essential tool, but it also represents a huge risk to your privacy and security. Understanding these best practices when it comes to securing your smartphone will help keep you and your data safe.
So funny story at #NoKings today: On the way to rally, I played Peter Paul and Mary's classic protest song "If I Had a Hammer" for our "youngling" (12 y/o grand-nephew) explaining how it was significant for its use during civil rights and anti-war protests.
We start marching ... and someone starts singing it. 😢
To encourage the crowd nearby, between 3rd and 4th verses, I shout out "C'mon all you hippies!" and everyone laughed ...

ugh I hate to post public but inbetween getting hatecrimed bc the racist white neighbors vandalized our abode which I need to repair, my arm gave out again from repetitive stress injuries of working 2 jobs for my already disabled family to survive. I have to get xrays + wait for a specialist just for a paper to approve more treatment while obviously the injury is impeding my ability to work.

Santa Monica #NoKings. Not surprised there were thousands. We hate Trump and his lawless terror campaign even more than we hate to go east of the 405 on a weekend.
Americans head to Middle East to participate in their national sport: dying for Israel This is so exciting...
The Americans who can't have healthcare are ecstatic they are about to get something much better: an unwinnable war in the Middle East. Life just isn't the same when they're not fighting an unwinnable war in the Middle East, is it?
people at American embassy in Ottawa! Enough to surround the building. We walked around it a few times.
There were tons of really clever signs. My sign had a slogan I copied from someone on Mastodon ... "No Truth Decay". A dentist came up to me with appreciation for that : -)
I think the crowd might have been bigger but quite a few people went to the Palestinian support protests which in today's case was at the same time.
I'm sitting here tonight looking at old high school & college textbooks on algebra, statistics, and calculus trying to figure out the precise number of times we need to keep marching back & forth on Mill Ave or circling empty Capitol buildings to stop genocide & liberate marginalized communities and the only solution I keep coming up with is to stop listening to nonprofit/org movement managers (especially those who work with cops), start forming affinity groups of people who know this shit is performative & solves nothing, and start fucking escalating.
You know what those state reps in Minnesota did after the feds plus local sheriff deputies Luke Michelson and Timothy Inglett assassinated movement rebel Winston Smith in 2021? They gave the thumbs up to more cops and crackdowns, and they certainly never sought to bring the killers to account - we only know the killers names because of a leak.
So yeah, definitely not concerned for a couple politicians who became “collateral damage”
Watching the protests while working on a new forest painting.. pretty similar to the last one, because I liked making that!
Needs something on the foreground I think.. to make it special.. maybe something safe like more foliage, or something weird like a wizard or a witch or some animal..?
If Trump's response to the "No Kings" protests—and, for example, the riots in LA—has been "tyrannical," then we're just gonna need an even more extreme term to describe the left's response to the J6 protests.
at the protest, holding some EXTREMELY biting signs that will make drumpf resign and appoint momala as the king sorry i meant queen sorry i meant the president instead, for sure
There's a protest myth that liberals love to repeat.
Be peaceful so you don't give the cops an excuse to brutalize you.
The fact is that the cops are gonna brutalize you when they get the order to, whether you're sitting and singing kumbaya or not. It's got nothing to do with the actions of you and your fellow protestors. It has to do with when they get the word to swoop in and brutalize you, that's what's going to happen. When some higher up gets his manties in a bunch and decides it's time to crush some skulls.
So do us all a favor and stop saying that crap. It's false and creates dangerous situations for others out there on the streets with you.
The state is the perpetrator of violence, both visible and invisible. The state is going to go medieval on your ass when they feel like it. No excuse necessary.
@violetmadder And don't forget those that will try to turn other people in the crowd over to the cops if they don't agree with their type of direct action.

#Iran and #Israel are at war, with the #US already intimately involved and likely to become more so. Which of course means we’ll be spending the foreseeable future getting bashed in the face with lies from the most powerful people in the world.
The most immediately obvious of these is the Netanyahu-promoted narrative that Israel initiated this conflict because Iran was on the brink of developing a nuclear weapon. With absolutely no self-consciousness or sense of irony, the Israeli prime minister followed the attacks with a statement accusing Iran of “genocidal rhetoric” which it has backed up “with a program to develop nuclear weapons.” Israel, as we all know, has an unacknowledged nuclear arsenal, and its leaders are presently committing #genocide in #Gaza while spouting genocidal rhetoric.
“And if not stopped, Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in a very short time,” #Netanyahu claimed. “It could be a year. It could be within a few months — less than a year. This is a clear and present danger to Israel’s very survival.”
The western political/media class have been dutifully promoting this line and uncritically parroting Israel’s claim that its unprovoked attack on Iran was “preemptive”, but there is absolutely no evidence that any of this is true.
Benjamin Netanyahu has spent literally decades falsely claiming that Iran was a year or two away from developing a nuke, only to have the calendar prove him wrong with the passage of time over and over again.
US intelligence chief Tulsi #Gabbard testified just weeks ago that “The IC [Intelligence Community] continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003.”
As journalist Séamus Malekafzali recently noted on Twitter, one of the strongest arguments that Iran had not reversed its decision to refrain from obtaining nuclear weapons is that Iranian nuclear scientists have been publicly expressing frustration about the fact that their government won’t allow them to construct a nuke. They want to do it, but Tehran won’t let them.
US Secretary of Defense Pete #Hegseth helped pave the way for Netanyahu’s claims this past Wednesday when he told the Senate that “there have been plenty of indications” Iran has been “moving their way toward something that would look a lot like a #nuclear weapon.”
This claim by Hegseth was swiftly scooped up and promoted by warmongers like Tom Cotton who said that Hegseth had “confirmed that Iran’s terrorist regime is actively working towards a nuclear weapon.”
Cotton’s claim was then picked up by war pundit Mark #Levin, who has been personally lobbying #Trump to green light an attack on Iran, sarcastically quipping on Twitter, “So, SecDef Hegseth must by lying, too. Everyone’s lying except the isolationists, Koch-heads, Islamists, Chatsworth Qatarlson and their media propagandists.”
But let’s back up and look at what Hegseth actually said. He did not say “Iran is building a nuclear weapon.” He said “there have been plenty of indications” Iran has been “moving their way toward something that would look a lot like a nuclear weapon.”
If the US had intelligence that Iran was building a nuke, Hegseth would have just said so. But instead he performed this freakish verbal gymnastics stunt muttering about indications of something that might kinda sorta look like a nuclear weapon, which his fellow Iran hawks then falsely took and ran with as a positive assertion that Iran was building a nuke.
There are other lies being circulated to help market this war as well. As Moon of Alabama notes, the Washington Post’s odious war propagandist David Ignatius is pushing the narrative that Iran has been cultivating a relationship with de-facto al-Qaeda leader Saif al-Adel. The lie that Saddam Hussein was in league with al-Qaeda was used two decades ago to sell the invasion of Iraq.
At the same time, Trumpian pundits are currently circulating the narrative that the United States is full of Iranian “sleeper cells” who could activate at any moment and begin attacking Americans. The most egregious of these is Laura Loomer’s repeated claims that there are “millions” of such cells awaiting Iran’s orders to strike — possibly the single most bat shit insane claim I have ever seen anyone with any major platform make, since it would mean a very sizable percentage of the US population is actually a secret Iranian proxy army.
The fountain of lies is just getting started. There will be more. Believe nothing unless it is substantiated by mountains of evidence. These freaks have been caught lying to sell wars to the public far too many times for any of their claims to be taken on faith.
This class (forbiddentickets.com/events/pa…) was born through a specific experience - while teaching a class on D/s, panda was asked how it could have multiple dominant partners. Didn’t the other partners get jealous? What happened if there were differing desires? The question baffled panda a little at first, as it had never considered having multiple dominants as a thing that couldn’t be possible.
How on earth do we balance our dragon hoards of partners with which we exchange power?! Love isn’t pie, but time sure is. Let’s talk about how to keep your cule while ensuring everyone’s needs are cared for.
I saw statement issued by group calling themselves
Anarchist Front of lran and Afghanistan
Statement from them reads like a Shitlib/Empire's sympathizer
In the whole statement,it doesnt have the word genocide & declares that they are against state-led wars (how noble of you?)
Reduces overall naked genocidal attack by Jewish Nazi society setting the whole region on fire & trying to start Iraq 2.0 to "redistribution of power among elites".
When you read the whole statement, it looks like they hate Iran more than they hate whole of Empire.
These people are not rational people. With the politics they have, they arent going to achieve anything in life. Most likely aid the worst in society while a slaughter machine is at their door step.
These people are completely unserious people—no matter what they did before in life.
Ofcourse, I hate Iranian regime just like everyone else
but not being able to see whats going to on i.e slaughter pipeline already in motion for those who live in "Iran" now, their Statement reads exactly like what I read from Western Imperial Terrorist diplomats (except "We are against all States").
When I read some statements attributed to Anarchists, I cant tell if its prepared by Empire's state department employee (or) someone who are actual anarchists who are so clueless.
They dont have the word colonialism, imperialism, western terrorism, nothing.
I am reasonably confident Anarchist space will be infiltrated by State as much as other Left current too are infiltrated. Sometimes not having serious & being dogmatic also can result in such analysis.
In anycase, if it quacks like X, its good to ignore such clueless statements.
I pursue my Anarchist politics, but I keep my eyes wide open to see games played
Ofcourse, there are ethnic groups Empire is nurturing to topple the regime & rule "Iran" just like how Empire + Syrian dictatorship destroyed Syria & now installed ethnic-enclaves.
I wont be surprised if this Anarchist outfit too has elements of that just like how I never felt Rojava's statements were 100% truthful after I looked below the surface.
So, if some groups' statements read like Rojava & it turned out to be Western Capitalistic
