I have heard too many decibels today.
“Be the change in the regime you want to see in the world.” Yet another one of Jesse Welles’ lyrics that’s gonna haunt me for awhile. (From “Sometimes You Bomb Iran”, out today, look it up and listen.)
“From all oppression, conspiracy, and rebellion; from violence, battle, and murder; and from dying suddenly and unprepared,”
“Good Lord, deliver us.”
If you are/were preaching tomorrow, what will/would you say?
I’m 100% for clergy showing up in clerical collars to escort immigrants, disrupt ICE, etc.
🥃 Boulevardier (Bourbon Negroni): 2oz bourbon, 1oz sweet vermouth, 1oz Campari.
What should we hope to hear from preachers these days? I don’t think sermons should have to keep up with the daily/weekly news, but it seems like a dereliction of duty to preach right through authoritarian/fascist collapse as if nothing had changed.
What’s a restaurant dish you hope to eat again before nuclear winter?
What’s the most off-brand thing about you?
I’m on the lookout for the best, tiniest EDC utility knife. Any recommendations? I’ve got the Gerber EAB Lite and Workpro EDC folder. Tempted to try the Outdoor Edge SlideWinder. Not super interested in anything over $50 USD unless it’s life-changing. #edc #knife #utilityknife
What’s a book you wish you’d read earlier in your life/career?
Here we are…checking social media to see if we’re at war yet/or not. Fun times.
No kings. No secret police. Impeach, convict, and remove Trump. Abolish ICE. #NoKings #AbolishICE
So, are we running for office?
The vibe at the #NoKings rally was fantastic. Actually felt like I was a part of a functioning country with other people who give a damn and want the truth. How do we make our neighborhoods, cities, counties, states, and country feel more like that on a daily basis?
🇺🇸 Proud to stand with my fellow Americans today and protest the Trump regime. The #NoKings rally in Toledo, OH was well-attended by people of all ages. Peaceful, joyful, a reminder that there’s still plenty of good in this country worth fighting for.
Favorite #NoKings protest sign so far: “Things are so bad even the introverts are here!”
Wrote a poem: “No Kings.” joshuapsteele.com/no-kings/
Still marveling at the cognitive dissonance of trying to go about my daily work while the world is on fire.
What are the best anti-tyranny symbols and slogans out there we can use today? I’m thinking like the three arrow logo of the Iron Front. What else??
