Heyyowhattup! Cub foods strike this weekend! All the cub foods in the Twin Cities metro area unionized with UFCW local 663 are striking and you should get out there and hold the line with them. heres a map of all the stores Do a cub crawl and see whos parking lot got the best snacks and chants. If there’s a store that’s open go in and ask for the manager and tellem Jonas says they’re a rat, then shoplift as much as you can carry on your way out 🐀  I want my pals to not be exploited! But that’s not the extent of what we need from a union. It’s not enough to want a “fair share” of the wealth america extracts from the rest of the world. We cant be the exceptions to capitalism, we need to be it’s destroyers. Lets learn our power and sharpen our claws and make bosses across Minnesota feel kinda weird!

i originally had 2 sketches going on and i couldn't decide between them, but then someone started giving me feedback on one, so i guess they accidentally chose which one i ended up touching up more o:

(allen and lavi were drawn by mouse bc i couldn't bear to keep burning hours on using my tablet and i have so many things due!!! god!! i can't be clawing my way out of the dgm pit right now.... and yet..... i keep climbing back in.......)

i think krory will just have to be drawn anywhere from noodle-like to jacked depending on what's funniest in any given situation, the way hoshino intended it

i guess the last think ill say is ppl gotta stop acting like being a good progressive is about playing a constant game of tag to avoid being called out for racism or homophobia or ableism or w/e. we are all guiltly of perpetuating harmful attitudes. theres no point in getting defensive about being criticized for them, bc the goal cannot be to remain blameless since that was impossible from the start. the real makings of a person capable of the solidarity and integrity needed to work for change is someone who knows they are fallible and that self change is necessary and ongoing.

What is your suggestion for rapists and murderers tho? If they shouldn't go to prison what should be done with them?

“One topic that almost immediately comes up anytime abolition is under discussion is what will be done about violent or harmful actions, especially people who enact sexual violence or violence against children; there seems to be a common concern that a post-abolition world will have no way of preventing or addressing harm, or that violence against women and children will be accepted as an inevitable price to pay for a world without prisons.

It feels important to me in those conversations to point out that abolitionist movements have and are still heavily led by Black women, a demographic that experiences disproportionately high levels of violence in general and sexualized and gendered violence in particular. It seems at best misguided and at worst undermining to imagine that Black women, of all people, would create a framework that forgets or doesn’t understand such a major element of lived experience.

To that end, two things. First, the prison industrial complex as it stands is a powerful and unchecked site of sexualized violence, not an antidote to it; rarely, if ever, does the justice system actually address rapists or pedophiles, and when it does, they are not prevented from causing harm, but moved into a prison system to cause harm to a caged population of people.

Prevention of sexual violence is one of the most important reasons to dismantle the prison-industrial complex, as sexual violence against incarcerated people is rampant and unmitigated, as is sexual violence enacted by the police; it’s the second most common type of police misconduct reported. Do you know any survivors of sexual harm who have been healed by the prison industrial complex? Is it effectively addressing this harm now? If not, what is actually lost by ending it? What could be gained by imagining understandings of “consequences” that don’t include prisons?

Second, abolitionist thought is not only very aware of the reality of violence and has considered the need to address harm, including gendered and sexualized harm, but has worked hard to imagine meaningful ways of preventing, addressing, and healing harm and violence outside of frameworks of punishment and cages. Living in a carceral culture, it can feel impossible to imagine that there can be meaningful consequences for harm without a criminal justice system; abolition asks you to try.

Abolitionists have done enormous amounts of work to provide potential answers to what it would look like to address these things without prisons, and provided resources and actionable toolkits and guides on making them a reality.” — Police and Prison Abolition 101: A Syllabus and FAQ

Understand that the call to abolish police is also a call to allocate adequate funds and resources to mental health services, livable wages, food security and all other societal factors which facilitate the ‘crimes’ you believe we need police protection from.
