Good morning “If only there were a political movement focused on making the government get out of the way and just leave you alone. An ideology to answer the growing prison-planet problem. Name it something that evokes the spirit of liberty, you know? We could all use some of that.” -Edward Snowden #anarchism #revolution #joy

Do you love Me? Alice asked. No, I don't love you! replied the White Rabbit. Alice frowned and clasped her hands together as she did whenever she felt hurt. See? replied the White Rabbit. Now you're going to start asking yourself what makes you so imperfect and what did you do wrong so that I can't love you at least a little. You know, that's why I can't love you. You will not always be loved Alice, there will be days when others will be tired and bored with life, will have their heads in the clouds, and will hurt you. Because people are like that, they somehow always end up hurting each other's feelings, whether through carelessness, misunderstanding, or conflicts with themselves. If you don't love yourself, at least a little, if you don't create an armor of self-love and happiness around your heart, the feeble annoyances caused by others will become lethal and will destroy you. The first time I saw you I made a pact with myself: "I will avoid loving you until you learn to love yourself." ‘Alice in Wonderland’ L Carroll #followthewhiterabbit #JOY #intotherabbithole

"Happiness! You don't know how I looked for it, I barely remember it myself; in serious books, in dubious beds, in the simplicity of things..." Mimosa. ★August 16, 1907, anarchist militant and nurse for the Durutti Column, Georgette Léontine Roberte Augustine Kokoczinske alias 'Mimosa' was born in Versailles, Paris. At the age of 16, she began to frequent the bars and Cabarets of Montmartre, where she became interested not only in performance and poetry, but also in the ideas of anarchism. In the late 1920s, alongside organising meetings and rallies for anarchist causes, she qualified as a nurse. She set up home with the anarchist Fernand Fortin and belonged to the “Éducation Sociale” group. Using the stage name Mimosa, she joined a theatre group that entertained libertarian meetings and festivals in France such as "La Revue Anarchiste". On September 18, 1936, Mimosa enlisted in the International Group of the Durruti Column and was dispatched to the Aragon Front, where she and the German anarchists Augusta Marx and Madeleine Gierth took care of the infirmary and the kitchens. She was killed on October 17, 1936 aged 27, at the Battle of Perdiguera near Zaragoza, Aragon, along with other nurses and dozens of foreign volunteers - including French activists Roger and Juiette Baudard, Yves Vitrac, Bernard Meller, Jean Delalain, Suzanne Girbe, Louis Recoulis, Rene Galissot, Jean Albertini, Jean Giralt, Raymond Berge and Henri Delaruelle. Following a gunfight in which all the anarchists (including Mimosa) took up arms, they were eventually captured by Franco's fascists when their ammunition ran out, then murdered and their unclothed bodies burned in a barn. Their memories will live on forever with love, whereas the anonymous, diseased creatures that killed them, are in the dustbin of history and the fight is not finished. In May 1937, as a tribute to her, a French-speaking FAI group in the Gracia neighborhood of Barcelona, ​​took the name Brigada Mimosa. • Why we want to fight. This clip dedicated to Mimosa.

What part of anarchism bothers you? A: the part where you have to make decisions about your own life B: the part where you don’t get to make my decisions for me? #anarchy #revolution #JOY

'An anarchist society is and always will be an aspiration, an ideal — a ‘star’ to follow — one that provides us with an ethical code, a moral barometer and a libertarian political template for our everyday lives. If and when a social revolutionary situation recurs again (in this country or anywhere) the role of the anarchist will be to do what they can to ensure that the social institutions required to ensure that any human society (including health and welfare,and security/defence services), function justly, fairly and as conflict-free as is humanly possible, are — and remain — fundamentally democratic, libertarian and answerable to the community. It’s not about achieving Nirvana or a Utopia, only religious zealots and ideological fundamentalists believe in the ‘rapture’ that creates the Kingdom of Heaven on earth, or the ‘last fight’ mentioned in ‘The Internationale’. Anarchists appreciate only too well how ‘imperfect’ human beings are and, doubtless always will be, which is why they reject institutionalised power structures as the bedrock for the creation of oligarchies (well-meaning or otherwise) and the corrupting of the body politic.' Stuart Christie. • On this day in 1964, 18-year-old Scottish anarchist Stuart Christie was arrested in Madrid while carrying explosives to blow up Spain’s fascist dictator General Franco. When arrested he was wearing a kilt, which confused the Spanish press in to describing him as "a Scottish transvestite." Here is his personal account of those events: https://libcom.org/library/franco-assassination-attempt-stuart-christie • "To me, the Spanish Revolution of 1936, was the moral touchstone of the 20th century." Kill Franco! By Stuart Christie and Wesley Magoogan. In this short film, Christie recalls his clandestine journey across Europe, the secret signals and passwords he used, and his eventual arrest by Franco's secret police:

Good Morning

“Everything that exists, from consciousness to the digestive workings of the human body to sound waves and bladeless fans, is magnificently unlikely. This is the way to survive in this world, to wake up in the morning and receive a cancer diagnosis, discover that a man has murdered forty children, discover that the milk has gone sour, and exclaim, “How unlikely! Yet here we are.”” (Jaroslav Kalfař, The Spaceman of Bohemia) #improbablenotimpossible 📷: close up of a wolf spider’s head

Me: ‘I Love Nature’ Also Me ‘I hate mosquitoes, they bite me and give me a persistent itching. No “natural” way of dissuading them from sucking the blood dry of me works. I may HAVE TO BUY a “proper” insecticide. Also Me: ‘Love is wanting the best for the beloved, fighting for it. Love is understanding the loved one. You think you love nature, but you’re yet to understand it. Then, once you anderstand it, only then you Love Nature’. Me pays for cool citronella sticks and that anti-itching pomade thing at the selfcheck with his mobile phone, all facilitated by a corrupted system. We are trapped within a construct that doesn’t has any room for Love. Let’s change it, not by making room for Love, but by bursting it with it. #joyofrevolution #bitcoin #JOY
