Deja Vu might be one of the best episodes of Game Changer yet.

The foreshadowing early in the game (no repeats?), unfinished and impossible games, inspection happening before The Noodle Incident. It's literally a perfect storm of excellent concept and execution. I don't think any other show could have committed to the bit required to pull it off. Some Zero Escape shit

Fucking watch it man its so good

According to an old Native American legend, one day there was a big fire in the forest. All the animals fled in terror in all directions, because it was a very violent fire. Suddenly, the jaguar saw a hummingbird pass over his head, but in the opposite direction. The hummingbird flew towards the fire!

Whatever happened, he wouldn't stop. Moments later, the jaguar saw him pass again, this time in the same direction as the jaguar was walking. He could observe this coming and going, until he decided to ask the bird about it, because it seemed very bizarre behavior.

"What are you doing, hummingbird?" he asked.

"I am going to the lake," he answered, "I drink water with my beak and throw it on the fire to extinguish it." The jaguar laughed. 'Are you crazy? Do you really think that you can put out that big fire on your own with your very small beak?'

'No,' said the hummingbird, 'I know I can't. But the forest is my home. It feeds me, it shelters me and my family. I am very grateful for that. And I help the forest grow by pollinating its flowers. I am part of her and the forest is part of me. I know I can't put out the fire, but I must do my part.'

At that moment, the forest spirits, who listened to the hummingbird, were moved by the bird and its devotion to the forest, miraculously they sent a torrential downpour, which put an end to the great fire.

The Native American grandmothers would occasionally tell this story to their grandchildren, then conclude with, "Do you want to attract miracles into your life? Do your part."

“You have no responsibility to save the world or find the solutions to all problems—but to attend to your particular personal corner of the universe. As each person does that, the world saves itself.’"

This story is beautiful and it made me cry.

anyone in or near nyc: the gaza solidarity encampment is in desperate need of support as columbia university president minouche shafik intends to have the camp swept (again) at midnight if an agreement cannot be reached with organizers. the escalation against activists has been ongoing all week long.

i have been in touch with students (who wish to remain anonymous for their own safety) and following others participating in the encampment and your support at this moment is absolutely crucial if you can spare it.

**i’ve seen various mentions of the national guard being dispatched but as of several hours ago ny governor kathy hochul said she had no plans to allow for it. this, however, does not keep the encampment safe from violence at the hands of the NYPD.

If you're going to go to protests, it's better to get arrested on purpose than snatched. Get a burner, but be prepared to lose everything anyways if You're suspected of being a credible threat or if they need to use you as an example. Use a surgical mask+hat/hoodie to cover facial features. If you see police drones, a bb gun can be bought by nearly anyone you know :3. With a bit of know-how, air rifles are even better.

At the march, keep shituational awareness, stay in the front half unless you have business in the back hall. Dress lightly but warm enough to survive the transition to night. Write important numbers on your person. Don't take pictures unless you are press. Don't snitch on yourself on social media by posting pictures near the protest begin/end, we're living in interesting times. Always go with a buddy. Bring water+stuff but don't weigh yourself down. Don't throw punches at the cops unless you know you can win the fight against his friends. Don't even harass them until it's safe to do so. Avoid arrest unless it's specifically for that: Keep your blip off of their radar. Find something to do with your hands.

Don't start sectarian arguments. We must come together in principled unity on the issue of halting, and then punishing, the crime of genocide. Something we should have been doing all along prior to October. Find people you work well with and make an affinity group united in principle on the activities you all plan to get involved in. Some require more ideological unity than others. Regardless, everyone in your AG needs good information security culture.

Two big methods of organizational strategy and tactics that are known to work are Democratic Centralism, and Crew Resource Management. The former you can read Lenin and Mao. The latter has a tutorial on the FEMA website. Use both.

Most importantly, your health and safety are needed to continue doing this for as long as we need to. Put the oxygen mask on yourself first before helping anyone next to you.

Palestine will be free.

Organization of the highest quality is needed. A revolutionary movement must utilize a flexible strategy with a diverse set of tactics is needed for revolution to be possible. Mutual aid must fill in the gaps left behind by the revolutionary war. Please use this space to post bail funds and other ways to get involved.

You can donate to the Palestine Children's Relief Fund for as little as $1.00.

There is a fee you can choose to apply to cover processing.

Which if you choose to do leaves you with a total of ~$1.35 (USD) depending on the type of card you have.

PCRF has a score of 97% on Charity Navigator.

Adults and children alike are currently dying in Palestine due to starvation. (World Health Organization Link)

The Gaza Strip is one of two places in the entire world that is categorized as Phase 5 (the highest phase) on the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification scale.

So even if you think it isn't enough, remember that donating even as little as $1.35 helps! It's $1.35 they wouldn't have had otherwise. So donate if you can. 🇵🇸

Since the minimum is so low, this is a great place to put the last of a prepaid card, don't just give it back to the card company by tossing it with money still on it! Even a dollar can do good!
