TOTW: Forever Young

All that lives will inevitably die, but getting old is optional.

Anarchists take this challenge literally at times, joining the lineage of bombastic figures who meet an early grave, while most combat the aging process by staying “young at heart” despite their aching joints. To those who resist it, “growing up” often means trading away whimsy, delight, and Romantic notions of infinity for stress, alarm clocks, and tax forms. Anarchists have long made enemies with linear time—the type that makes you old—to escape its deleterious and conformist effects.

TOTW: Aliens

This week, we're talking about ALIENS!

But what does that even mean? What kind of "aliens"? Real ones? Fake ones? Imaginary ones? Illegal ones?

We're talking E.T. 

We're talking beings from places beyond the terrestrial zone

We're talking about UFOs, UAPs, Space Invaders, Xenomorphs, and such otherworldly creatures of the beyond!

Does that have something to do with anarchy? 

Well... does it?

TOTW: Anarchy Fangirls

A fangirl is someone - typically but not exclusively female - who gets hyped out of their mind about a particular person, group, activity, or interest. We're talking full-on, unfiltered passion: shouting from the rooftops about their favorite band, binge-watching a TV series until sunrise, or obsessively collecting everything tied to a niche hobby.

TOTW - Columbus? Nah, columbYOU!

Of His-story's biggest bastards, Columbus is surely up there with the worst.

Ol' Christopher was intimately documented through the opening chapters of Zinn's "A People's History" and has been taking the heat across schools, parks, local legislatures, forums, and social media ever since.

Acting as an agent of the Catholic Crowns to expand the reach of their Holy Empire, it is safe to say Columbus was not on the level with anarchists and was, in fact, an actual factual colonizer.
