I feel like I must fight the tide of anarchy because it plays into the hands of political apathy and is trying to transform society in a way that in my opinion will be infinitely worse than what we have now.

And this means I'm fighting the left. I hate it.

But they're fighting /me/ even if I don't fight, for even daring to support the state, even an evolved or enlightened one.

It's a matter of not getting trampled.

A Guide to the Many Sun Ra Albums Now Available on Bandcamp https://daily.bandcamp.com/2017/10/13/sun-ra-album-guide/

What I'm saying here:

If you create things, release them in to the world. Archive them as quickly as you can. Make sure that those things will still exist in ten years.

If you consume things that other people create, Talk About Them in Public Places. Write those blog posts (and put your blog somewhere that it's archives will still be around in ten years.)

Write some damn Zines. Shamelessly promote the things your friends create.

They’ve found another mature American chestnut tree that appears to be resistant to the chestnut blight!

This is extremely good news. Until the chestnut blight, chestnut trees were the predominant tree in eastern North America. They hope to breed this one with others.
