#uniting

[dk-thrive]

So i quote you again: (or were you quoting relationship self-help books, not sure?) “do you want to be right or do you want to connect?” as you so magnificently do, see-sawing on polarity and refusing to take a side you knew: the peace is found in uniting.

— Björk, from “A Continuity, Imagined. Conversation with Björk” in Like Love: Essays and Conversations by Maggie Nelson. (Graywolf Press, April 2, 2024)

I wonder if you can tell. That less is there. That something is different. I’m supposed to be healing this thing. Releasing this stuff. But, you wouldn’t know that, would you? And you’re the catalyst. The rising and the setting of the turmoils. The resistance. It’s as if you’re there as a silent observer. Watching me. Like you do. The unraveling. The walls. As I gradually fall. But I hear you speak. Speaking to me. From beyond the words you utter. Can’t help but feel a bit smothered. From this heavy heavy cloak I’ve always known. And they said the walls are crumbling down. On top of themselves. From within. But it’s the rubble. It’s the rubble that’s harder to penetrate. Harder than the wall. Because you see. Amongst all the blood stained hands. Is what’s bound to be set free. And I can’t hold my breath any longer.

you guys made luigi mangione trend for days and I need to see the same energy for brianna boston. she is a 43 year old mother of three who ended a phone call with blue cross blue shield (after being denied a claim) “delay deny depose, you people are next” and is now being held under a 100,000$ bond and could face FIFTEEN years of prison if charged. she has no weapons, her record is clean, and yet she is being held behind bars. they are afraid of the public and are trying to subdue. do not let them!!!! be outraged that our freedom of speech is being threatened!!!!! deny defend depose! free brianna boston!

id: a tweet from pop tingz. "max announces the release of the 'luigi mangione: the ceo killer' documentary on february 17th."

hey! just a reminder this alleged "ceo killer" hasn't been convicted of anything, hasn't even gone to trial, was taken into custody without being dna tested or fingerprinted (what fingerprints they did find near the scene were entirely circumstantial), didn't have any contact with legal rep before his extradition hearing, and wasn't identified as a facial match by the fbi's top notch ai software. just don't watch this doc, it's bound to be full of bullshit just like tmz.

PSA

This is The Adjuster (Robin Hoodie, Guy That Shot the CEO, etc.):

And this is Luigi Mangione:

And yes, they are both super cool and hot as fuck but remember, they are two different people. The Adjuster has not been found and Luigi was never involved in the shooting.

Do not talk about them as if they are the same person and do not further spread the idea that Luigi is guilty.

[lun-rk800]

Several documentaries publically treating Luigi Mangione as guilty before his trial even started got released over the past 2 months.

Here's the billion dollar companies behind them.

[valeriesolanasapologist]

This woman was arrested for WORDS.

We should rally for her as much as the guy who actually shot someone. Push back.

fucking yes

Remember earlier this year when Boeing very clearly had a whistleblower executed? And law enforcement didn't even look for anyone or release any info about it or anything?

People keep comparing Luigi Mangione's case to the subway murderer who got off because of systemic eugenics, but I think there's something more apt about the fact that a CEO had someone executed in recent memory, with zero attempts to find a culprit, while they spared no expense at all to find (and probably frame, it's beginning to look like) someone who shot a CEO. It's always fine to slaughter if you're rich, but if you kill the rich, they will hunt you down.
