Yesterday, I hardly knew what to do with myself – it was the first Sunday in a very long time when I didn’t have Trimette over andalso didn’t go see Virgil. I did aome knitting (I am on track to wear the sweater next Sunday to see Virgil, and I intend to stay on track – ahead of track if I can.) Otherwise it was pretty normal – at least as much as anything can be normal in our current national chaos.<\/p>\n

Almost anyone could have thought of this, but it appears to be only Ursula at Politizoom<\/a> who actually did, as far as I can tell (feel free to correct me if I am wrong). And I’ll bet she is absolutely right.<\/p>\n

This article from The Nation<\/a> is both hopeful and helpful, although it’s not for the physically unfit or the faint of heart. It’s also not new – it was archived 8 months ago. But successful resistance doesn’t really change much over time (probably because the actions of tyrants don’t change much over time. The last thing a tyrant is would be is an original thinker.)<\/p>\n

Guest video from Really American. It’s about 10 minutes, which is long for here, but not really that long.
