isolation sucks

Being chronically ill and isolated sucks.

Yet society is deadset on making itself as hostile as possible for people like me to survive in it. I wish our communities fought against the normalization of death/mass-disablement and did more collective action like mutual aid. Instead, folks like me get tossed out as inconvenient and left behind.

It hurts even more when my communities claim to 'leave no one behind' and yet people like me (millions of us) are being left behind anyway due to lack of accessibility (Covid mitigations are part of accessibility by the way) and mutual aid to aid in our survival in an increasingly warming, hostile-to-life world.

It's so... exhausting and dispiriting.

Check in with disabled people. Aid us and support us, and please stop leaving us behind. Be accessible, please.

Continued thread

🧵 (4/5) In Radical #Resilience we hear from #activists from many different struggles and realise that we are not alone with these experiences. And although these subjects are often taboo, there lies a great strength in sharing and learning from each other.

The next step is to build up new structures that support us collectively and strengthen existing ones. And to challenge discrimination and oppression in our groups. Then we can truly find power in #CollectiveCare and dismantle the system in our heads!

There's an "Arctic Cold Front" coming next weekend. Looks to be dry with no snow, but very cold.

If you haven't already, now is the time to check in with your community and the people around you. Figure out what supplies you can get, and what you can offer, and what others can share. Our relationships are our strongest tool for surviving crisis

While the weather does not seem as intense as Winter Storm Uri, prepare as if this were 2021. Build the muscle of responding to crisis, and worst case you end up with some relationships and supplies that you don't need *yet*

Care packages aren’t just beautiful on the inside—for what they contain as gifts, as sustenance, as rebel “love letters” to each other. (Though getting a no. 10 envelope filled with stickers from @municipaladhesives last week was lovely indeed, as the shimmery-metallic circle A that found a good home outdoors today attests to.)

It’s what overflows outward into the “worlds in which many worlds fit”—to borrow Zapatista words—that we are already, always, crafting in the here and now that’s especially beautiful, messiness and all.

That includes the “little touches” like the black and red rubber-stamped logos that Municipal Adhesives put on the envelope’s outside, meaning that various postal workers maybe couldn’t help but notice—perhaps speaking to their antifascist and/or anarchic hearts during yet another deadening day of capitalism.

Or the bigger, prefigurative ones, in which Municipal Adhesives thinks to make and distro stickers with circle A slogans that hold out a hand—on public walls and lamp posts—to the anarcho-curious or world-weary who long for something besides the daily disasters of the current social order—but need glimpses of what that could be and is when one embraces anarchistic forms of social relations and social organization.

Or the bigger-still ways that anarchists create do-it-ourselves spaces in which we remember that “we are the ones we waited for”—spaces open and welcoming to whoever is on a journey, their journey, to liberation and freedom. For as Municipal Adhesives reminded me when they PM’d me about sending a care package my way, we’d met years ago at the annual National Conference on Organized Resistance, in which a tiny anarchistic collective brought some 2,500 young folks together for a weekend that was a smorgasbord of hundreds of workshops and tables (by young-at-heart folks) spanning the whole range of radical politics. In this outwardly solidaristic, generative, open-door space, thousands found their political passion and calling—and each other.

Care packages are a joy—a life line—on a personal level in these dispiriting times, warming our insides. Yet anarchistic care shines when we common it, outward and upward.

I'm interested mostly in discovering new forms of organization and mutual aid. También en descubrir, discutir y hablar sobre cultura y entretenimiento. I en saber què s'està movent i coent per la meva zona (Barcelona).

See you around! :QueerCat:

The anarchist elves have been busily working overtime—voluntarily—to keep the lights on at #Kolektiva, especially as a whole slew of us have finally starting using our long-dormant accounts (like me) or joined in the past few days. And until capitalism is history, anarchistic infrastructure isn’t completely free—at least monetarily.

So if you can spare some change, or better yet, dollars in whatever currency is commodifying your part of this imperiled world, kick some love and cash (like I just did) to our rad admin crew!

MUTUAL AID CALL — PLEASE BOOST:

Hiii autonomous people - I decided to re-share this again. I hope everyone’s day is going well. I’ve actually never made a mutual aid call for me but the reality is that I’m scared. I was unjustly fired. A racist staff misconstrued things about me which led for me to be fired without even getting a chance to explain myself. The reality is that this racist staff targeted me because she couldn’t take advantage of a Native person. She expected me to do most of the laboring work and didn’t like it when I spoke up. I’m an undocumented person because I was displaced from my native land in MX due to settler-colonialism. Do you love avocados? Well — my land was stolen because my kin and ancestors traditionally harvested avocados. Avocados are even called bloody gems because of the awareness of land theft and genocide to harvest on stolen land. After I was able to benefit from DACA (a work permit that I have to renew every 2 years for around $1000+) - I was able to show up for Black & Indigenous asylum seekers in Tijuana & Chiapas in MX. Having DACA gave me the opportunity to find a job that didn’t exploit me physically such as when I used to work as a farmworker & in factories. It gave me the capacity to be able to have the energy to join in supporting those who experience the brunt of State violence. I and other homies would pitch in funds and liberate items to organize safe fundraiser parties in the Bay Area prior to the pandemic. We never turned anyone away for lack of funds due to our experience in growing up low-income. Because of those fundraisers we were able to support asylum seekers who seeked asylum in the US & some in Canada after being denied asylum in the US. Back then as youth we showed fund transparency on our personal IG accounts - but now as adults we have learned to create a separate account for specific mutual aid calls. Later after that - I autonomously made a mutual aid call to support undocumented indigenous farmworkers in 2020 when the pandemic started and also due to the wildfires in the Central Coast in California. I come from a farmworker family. I was angry in seeing viral posts tokenizing how strong farmworkers are for not quarantining and working under hazard air conditions — that’s not being “strong” — that’s what happens when you’re undocumented: the State exploits you when you have no other choice. Because of community support (and those who later joined the collective) we were able to raise over $60K. Those funds were directly distributed to families in envelopes of cash aid of $300 to $500 since undocumented people didn’t qualify for stimulus checks and undocumented farmworkers are laid off during the winter without access to unemployment benefits. The people who provide some of the food in our tables live in survival mode. We also distributed medication, backpacks for children of farmworkers, and KN95 masks for wildfires. Fund transparency has been posted in the collective DESOLASOL.COLECTIVA account on IG. Because of my experience as a Native femme in the US empire — I understand my privilege as a DACA recipient and I have used it to show up for those who experience State violence due to a document. Being fired from my job has left me with so much stress. I somehow need to raise funds to renew my DACA and basically have funds to survive. I’m not sure if I even qualify for unemployment benefits due to being fired. Being disabled makes it hard to find a job that works with my capacity. I developed chronic pain because of farmwork and I hope to find a job where it doesn’t make my body pain worse. Not having a job will also impact my capacity in showing up for those I’m in community with. This winter I & the homies were hoping to raise funds again to support undocumented indigenous farmworkers since the harvest comes to an end without them having access to funds due to agriculture being seasonal. I’ve sadly communicated that I won’t be able to join in mutual aid because I’m scared about my current situation. If anyone is at capacity please help me raise funds for my survival. My CashApp is $NebulaAzul. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I wrote this to give y’all an idea of who I am and that I’m not just some random scammer asking for funds. I hope White anarchists / abolitionists / accomplices in collective liberation show up for me. Please boost this if you’re not at capacity to donate. I hope each and one of you is safe and protected under this unjust system ♡
