Joy and hope are acts of resistance

Despair and anger feed the monsters I do recommend scrolling through news headlines every day so you have an idea of what’s happening (I use NY Times and Al Jazeera mostly), but you have no obligation to be an expert. If you can volunteer in your community (anything helpful, doesn’t have to be political), that would be awesome.

write things down and document the things you're seeing happen around you

it's something small but valuable in a time of digital censorship. use your judgment when looking at your news sources to find proper ones and keep a journal of the things happening in the country, whether it's big or small. I've been saving images and videos of things that I think will be suppressed and trying to keep a record of what's happening in case the information control gets even crazier in the future something else I've been doing is downloading any (public domain) books I've been meaning to read (especially leftist theory) off of project gutenberg or the internet archive in case those sites get shut down. also paying attention but trying to stay as calm as you can because they're trying overwhelm us and make us check out, which we can't afford to do right now. build community with the people around you, organize if you can, do mutual aid, start a garden, just to name a few more. there's so many ways to fight fascism, big and small

Nowhere (1997) Gregg Araki

Funny, weird, existential. Feels like it could have been made this year.

yes! This is my current obsession actually

neal.fun - a bunch of bizarre games/interactives with a dystopian and anti-caplitalist bent window-swap - shows you the view from random windows from around the world radio/garden - you can listen to live radio stations from all across the world ytch.xyz - show you random youtube channels and let's you click through like you're watching an old television marginalia-search - a search engine that isn't algorithmic, shows you niche search results that would typically be pushed to the bottom of other engines thecreativeindependent - articles by creatives, very simplified retro design that feels similar to this site The Magazine Rack at Archive.org - tons and tons of scanned and archived magazines spanning over 50 years - recommend checking out High Times very fun and oh so 70's
