sabotabbyIt began with avocado toast, though.
This is, no lie, the best avocado toast I have ever had. Which is saying a lot because have you ever heard of someone fucking up an avocado toast? You have not, because it’s difficult to do. But they don’t normally have sunflower and pomegranate seeds on them.
Someone thought of this sign, made this sign, photocopied this sign, and posted this sign. It’s a lot of effort so I want them to know that they are appreciated.
Notasupervillain and I went to Camden Market and felt personally targeted by some of the things there. Fortunately (???) the horribly hot weather made me not want to try on any clothes, because I would have otherwise spent a small fortune.
Take Cyberdog, for example. Plz admire the giant cyborgs and know that there are more inside, and everything is black light and flashy things.
You free tonight?
We met up with smhwpf and I., not yet on DW, and had Indian food and then made attempts to find the Fck Boris party. Eventually made it down. It was a much cooler crowd than the anti-Brexit demo, with better signs, though still quite well-mannered given the severity of the situation.
A part of me was hoping for Hunt because the slogans wrote themselves, but fortunately cleverer people figured out what ought to have been obvious.
Why don’t we do this at our demos? It’s v. photogenic.
Here’s another one.
You can drink on the streets in London so I. procured some beers, but no bottle opener, and thus had to resort to opening them on a lamp post, and I found an anarchist magazine on the ground, and we all listened to reggae from the folks on the bus, and it all felt very 80s punk rock, except we were three of the oldest people there, and there is a whole new promising generation of clever, creative activists, and it gave me a bit of hope that we’re maybe not entirely screwed.

Date: 2019-07-25 05:16 pm (UTC)Only thing to watch out for re: street drinking is that you can't bring an open container onto public transport. Otherwise, let the good times roll! The current politics is enough to make me wish I drank. Maybe I need to experiment with organic wine (preservative allergy)...
I like the coloured smoke too; we had it at the last march I was on.
