11 straight hours of presence and protest today, a full week of encampment, and 8 hours just today of negotiation from an incredible team of students. evergreen is divesting from israel, ending study abroad to occupied palestine, adding resources/personnel to respond to medical emergencies instead of police, and other stuff thats slipping my mind right now. i am exhausted and so, so happy. protest works. encampments work. pressure divestments everywhere because resistance WORKS.
You know the song "Magic" by B.O.B. (ft. Rivers Cuomo)? The one that goes "I've got the magic in me. Every time I touch that track it turns into gold"
When I was at wilderness (early 2019) I had the idea "I got the mattress in me". Last year I realized the next line should be "Every time I hit the sack", but I couldn't figure out what happens when I hit the sack though. Today I had an idea. "I go out cold". Unfortunately, though, that doesn't have enough syllables. So I've still got work to do.
WASHINGTON: Support needed for solidarity encampment april 30th
if youre in the olympia area or can get there, the evergreen state college's gaza solidarity encampment is having a rally at 11am, april 30th. the police have threatened to sweep multiple times, but the camp has negotiated for extensions. the next extension was made for 24 hours, approximately 5pm, april 30th.
the camp's main demand is for the school to divest from boeing and caterpillar inc., companies that profit from war on palestine and do direct harm. the cooper point journal (evergreen's student paper) has been reporting on the encampment and theyre who i trust most on info about this.

why the fuck doesn't wikipedia have a dark mode anyway. bright ass articles more vibrant than the sun and you're supposted to read them. People rag on discord light mode all the time and yet wikipedia remains unscathed by such jeers. wrongly so
when madara and hashirama were talking abt how if humanity wants to be peaceful w each other and end all the conflicts and fighting etc, ppl would need to be able to look into each other's hearts so that they could rlly see each other as they are and its such a meaningful sentiment but then madara just fucking. fully just dunks on that moment by ending his monologue saying 'yeah, i see u ... i see that ur fashion totally sucks BALLS btw, that outfit looks like SHIT. just thought u should know' ASFSFDFS. he is so funny
