i'm safe. not in in any danger.
dealing with a lot of repressed shit.
"But where the danger is, also grows the saving power."
when i truly want something, and i am certain that it definitely will harm no-one, i feel absolutely no fear in fighting tooth and nail right to the bitter, bitter end if i have to.
people have seen me in moments like this.
this sort of... courage is very rare these days. people usually always end up feeling disturbed by how possessed i am by justice and get convinced that it actually counts for the opposite--i am a monster, actually, who will stop at nothing to get what i want.
at some points in my life people have used almost every little action i have done, especially the ones intended only to be good, as the ammunition that i actually am the opposite of what i say i am.
language can work like this, and under a brutal neoliberal system like ours, "justice" does mean "depravity". "authenticity" will mean "perfectly hidden intentions". and, "healthy boundaries" will end up counting as "almost certain constant abuse".
it has gotten that bad, and i have had to endure at lot. people don't like me talking about myself at all, even some $400/hr psychiatrists, so i am not even sure how to allow myself to acknowledge if my endurance means strength or not. i haven't even started.
but, despite what people may think, i have never broken any of the huge huge huge promises people can make as humans. in my mind i am not a monster. but, despite identity politics being very popular at one point, that cannot stand as evidence in my favour. ever.
i still cannot admit to even myself how fantastic the story of my own life already sounds at age 34.
truth is stranger than fiction.
i think it is fair to say that i was very very unlucky about when, where, and to whom i was born, and that i have shown a lot of courage in having to deal with enormous problems that would be absolute nightmares for anyone.
people don't want me to say things like this, but it's true for everyone: you actually could stop living any moment. it is entirely physically possible.
epicurus says noticing this is the first step to having the best life. if you spend your life worrying about every little thing, trying to predict and control every possible catastrophe, you will have exactly no life.
life was meant to be happy, easygoing, free, tender, vulnerable...
i have never ever stopped trying my hardest every waking moment, and, look--i do recognise i overdo it.
yours for the revolution--every single kind. personal and political.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
VIDEO FOOTAGE SHOWS YOKAI CHAIR JIM MORRISON USED FORCE ON YOUNG STOLEN GENERATION DESCENDANT
Background info:
● In December, the church suspended BKI’s Board, issued an eviction notice, then created a new Board and signed a deal with Yokai without consulting Noongar women.
● The land is owned by the Uniting Church through the Beananging Kwuurt Institute (BKI), but it is subject to a complaint with the WA Equal Opportunity Commission, challenging the Uniting Church’s December dismissal of the BKI Board as sex, race, and political belief discrimination. This throws doubt over the current BKI Board and Yokai’s current lease to the land. The women are seeking legal advice on injunctive relief.
● Noongar women have been fighting to reclaim the Stolen Generations site which sits on Whadjuk Noongar land. Pre-colonisation, it was a sacred birthing place for Noongar women. Post-colonisation, it has a damning racist history as the former Stolen Generations site of the Sister Kate’s Children’s Cottage Home, where Aboriginal children were enslaved, abused and genocide was committed.
● We do not know who the new Board of BKI is, as the Church have not disclosed this.

freo early voting booth. 6 adelaide st, freo CBD. tuesday, 22 april 2025. 3.30pm - 5.30pm.
my next shift:
monday, 28 april 2025.
8.30am - 11.30am.
in this moment i have absolutely no idea what i am doing.
josh wilson is standing there, maybe one hundred metres from me, watching me fumble with this aluminum selfie stick i got from kmart.
up until this point i had done quite a good job trying to completely rattle him. i had moved one of our big a-frames right down the road, so everyone coming through the mall would at least see something socialist alliance related.
i was catching virtually everyone all the major parties weren't. they did catch onto this after a while, and the insane fright these people go into when something like this happens makes me feel so much better about being any-fucken-where near them.
but yeah, i pretty much did blow it in a matter of seconds almost dropping my phone while the stick was fully extended. the main fucken good photo with me with the badge on didn't even need the stick.
this stuff is all a game to me. i shook the liberal party lady's hand when i got there, and she almost didn't do it. the kate hullet teal person i first spoke to when i got there almost didn't tell me this was where the early voting booth was. who are these people? i'm the same as the rest of you! how many thousands of dollars did my branch spend, and you won't even acknowledge me.
i am sick and tired of this cultural cringe we have around politics. we're all so afraid of each other, and it has gotten so, so bad. it's pretty much all because of people like josh wilson and the labor party. he really needs this early voting booth to be locked down for the ALP.
seriously--fuck these servants of the capitalist class. it is possible to calculate any parliamentarian's degree of social separation from gina rinehart. i am deliberately trying to avoid working it out for the major player WA parliamentarians. i think i'd scare the shit out of myself.
