I Think People Need To Be More Comfortable With Illegalism And I’m Not Kidding. Of Course The More

I think people need to be more comfortable with illegalism and I’m not kidding. Of course the more legal something is, the safer and easier it is to do, but the more people who disregard the law, the harder it is to enforce. There are plenty of laws on the books that people just ignore and are never or rarely policed.

Becoming more comfortable with little illegal activities makes you more comfortable with bigger more important illegal activities. Additionally, it is crucial to build a wall of silence. Nobody talks everybody walks.

People who give out food without a permit, hold a march without a permit, grow a garden without a permit, are more likely to be people you could turn to to work with on preventing an eviction, or keeping people out of cop hands, or helping your friend Jane get crucial healthcare when it’s not legal in your state.

Communities comfortable with these acts won’t call the cops, and then nobody knows that it’s happening.

People have got to shift from both the idea that lawful = good/ illegal = bad, and that the illegality of something means that’s the end of it, and the only fight left is to make it legal again.

It really is hard to fight the feeling of being left behind. For whatever reason, really. Poverty, lack of family, trauma, mental illness and lack of medication, or just plain not being ready yet. And it's so easy to feel like a bad person when you're bitter about it.

I'm texting my friend who still lives with his dad and has never had a job. He just told me he filled in for his brother as a film tech for one day and got offered a job in LA making triple what I make working both my jobs combined.

I'm texting my friend currently on the other side of the world because they were able to afford college, and the school they go to offered to pay for a trip to a country they always wanted to visit.

I'm texting my friend who's about to move to Japan just for the hell of it so he can learn the language and culture. His grandparents are paying for it.

I'm watching two of my friends take off in the music production industry with equipment in their bedrooms.

And it's hard to cheer for them, watching them do things I still dream of doing one day, once my bills stop taking such a huge chunk of my income and I've healed enough from things I've been through. But I do. I want them to succeed. I'm proud to know my friends, who definitely deserve all these good things, are doing well and are being offered the opportunity to be happy and well off.

Please remember that despite this, it's normal to feel bitter. It's normal to feel jealous, sad, and angry even. It doesn't make you a bad person. It doesn't make you a bad friend. What matters is that you keep trying anyway, keep encouraging your peers, and you remember that you're only ever going to get where you want to be at your own pace.

I can only hope that when - when - I do achieve my goals, that the time I took will provide me with ideas and experience that will be completely unique to me, and make my craft better for it.

I know it'll happen for you, too.

I joked a few minutes ago about how in internet discourse anyone over 25 is a “queer elder” but come to think of it most of these young discoursers don’t even believe such a concept exists. Gay men who watched their entire friends groups perish to AIDS are “privileged cis gays,” older trans women who use dated terminology to describe their own experiences are problematic, elders are just a conservative old guard to rebel against, and anyone over thirty who speaks to you at all must be a predator. The first time I heard the phrase “okay groomer” online, it wasn’t coming from self identified conservatives but from tiktok teens reacting against leather at Pride. You guys are ignorant and uncultured and proud of it!

if you're from europe and haven't done so yet, please please please sign the petition for unconditional basic income!

it needs 1 million signatures by the 25th june, as well as reach a certain threshold in at least seven countries which it only has in three, and it's also still missing so many signatures to reach 1 million and time is running out)

please just do it, it's free, it should be safe cause it's quite literally an official EU site, and literally all you need to do is put your name and address on there (not visible to the public, but they will check if the signatures are legit so please don't fake any signatures, that'll just make it look like the goal was reached when it wasn't)

please just do this, time is running out for this initiative. if there's any reason you haven't signed it yet and won't do it, tell me the reason, maybe i can debunk it

here's the link to the petition: https://eci.ec.europa.eu/014/public/#/screen/home
