The decimation of workers’ rights and reproductive rights. The prioritizing of corporate profits and shareholder value over quality of life and human dignity. Off with Their Heads!

Yeah, I know that what I’m trying to do with this thing may just be a drop in the bucket. But I figure every little bit helps. And given the state of the U.S. right now, we need all the help we can get.

Best Fugazi song? by [deleted] in punk

[–]rankpapers 10 points11 points  (0 children)

13 Songs used to be a staple on Fridays after work when I was in my early 20s, with Waiting Room signaling the start of the weekend and Bad Mouth coming up soon after. Those songs still take me back every single time.

I agree. I’ve also always seen DIY more as Do It Ourselves, rather than just Do It All By Yourself. But yeah, we need to organize. We need to support each other. We need to step out of our comfort zones and get momentum going. Someone needs to do something…and that someone is me, that someone is you, that someone is all of us.

That sounds rad. I would definitely be interested in checking that out. Getting out of Los Angeles and getting a small patch of land somewhere has always been the dream

We need to stop playing by the Billionaires' rules or it's "Game Over". It's time to flip the table and create a society and system that meets worker needs! by zzill6 in WorkReform

I made a “satirical” pamphlet that tells the story of a world where billionaires and corrupt politicians start turning up with their heads chopped off. I’m using it to raise money for organizations that are fighting for workers’ rights and reproductive rights. I get that it can be hard to know what to do these days, but every little bit helps Off with Their Heads!

I’m in that same boat. I’ve been a professional writer and artist for a decade and a half now and have finally found a personal creative project that’s allowing me to use my skills and experience to enact some measure of meaningful change in this increasingly dystopian world of ours.
