Here’s what I woke up to today:
BLM Won – Just wait til they win some MORE!
Go read the whole thing – it’s truly fantastic, and well worth celebrating!
Now because I am a cynical bitch realist, I cannot help but reflect on the sheer enormity of human effort and sacrifice it took for Black Lives to Matter in one small U.S. city – and on how much more effort and sacrifice will be required to maintain this progress once the news crews are gone.
But pay no mind to Negative Nellie over here! This is a good and necessary victory, and it deserves aaaaallll the kudos!
Here are a few more previous posts to bring our collection up to date:
Being Uncomfortable (referenced and linked in my earlier post about that lying piece of shit AG Barr)
Brain ipsa loquitur (LOL)
Past the expiration date (saving the fresher batches of tear gas for Chicago and New York?)
Still a step away from Pinkerton’s, but it’s bad. (referencing Marcus Ranum’s excellent How to Riot post at stderr.)
Interview with a YOUNG HOT GAY (❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❗️)
There will be more Crip Dyke posts forthcoming. Although I hoped there would be a much-needed break for rest, rejuvenation, self-care and especially time to process recent intense and traumatic events, Crip Dyke is returning to the protests tonight. Because of course she is. 💜
