The real revolution is the revolution of Love.
“Understanding is now, not tomorrow. Tomorrow is for the lazy mind, the sluggish mind, the mind that is not interested. When you are interested in something, you do it instantaneously, there is immediate understanding, immediate transformation. If you do not change now, you will never change, because the change that takes place tomorrow is merely a modification, it is not transformation. Transformation can only take place immediately; the revolution is now, not tomorrow.”
“Where love is, there is transformation. Without love, revolution has no meaning, for then revolution is merely destruction, decay, a greater and greater ever-mounting misery. Where there is love, there is revolution, because love is transformation from moment to moment.”
~ Jiddu Krishnamurti (1954). “The First and Last Freedom”
The revolution is now, not tomorrow. If you wait for tomorrow, you'll be too late. Be Here Now. The Revolution of Love is always now or never. That’s why Rumi says “My friend, the sufi is the friend of the present moment. To say tomorrow is not our way.” Don't be like those who come to late to a marriage celebration. Come now. The revolution of Love is now. This revolution is very different from other revolutions. It is a great dance, song and celebration. It is the remembrance of God. It is the awakening of Life within you.

The revolution is now.
We’re not waiting for everyone to rise up, united against all oppressions. We’re fighting the oppressions we can, we’re building systems, we’re organizing with others, we’re doing what we can.
The revolution is always now.

"If voting changed anything they wouldn't let people do it-" grabs your face THEY DIDN'T JUST "LET" PEOPLE DO IT, MOST PEOPLE COULDN'T VOTE FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS. PEOPLE OF COLOR ONLY GOT THE FULL RIGHT TO VOTE 50 YEARS AGO IN THE US, THATS BARELY A GENERATION.
IF IT DIDNT MATTER AT ALL WHY WOULD THEY SPEND SO MUCH TIME GERRYMANDERING THE SHIT OUT OF EVERYWHERE?? WHY CAN'T FELONS VOTE?? WHY CANT PUERTO RICO VOTE? WHY DO THEY KEEP SWITCHING DATES AND LAWS AND TIMES AND WHATEVER THEY POSSIBLY CAN TO STOP PEOPLE FROM VOTING?? WHY DO THEY MAKE EFFORT AT ALL??
BEING DISILLUSIONED IS A REASONABLE RESPONSE. BUT PEOPLE FOUGHT AND DIED AND ARE STILL FUCKING DYING FOR THAT RIGHT, DONT SPIT IN THEIR FACE.
#god i hate seeing that fucking pop up#YES the system is fucked YES we need revolution or reform to the point of it being unrecognizable#but we dont HAVE THAT right now#but DONT COME IN AND TAKE WHAT WE DO HAVE FOR GRANTED IT WAS WRITTEN IN BLOOD#IM SO SICK OF THIS LIKE GUYS...WHY WOULD THEY MAKE THIS MUCH EFFORT...WHAT DO YOU THINK HAPPENED POST CIVIL WAR??#voting#elections

taking all my american followers by the shoulders. listen to me. just because you have a more promising candidate now doesn't mean you just assume it's going to be fine and don't bother voting. assuming trump wasn't going to win is how you got here in the first place so you go out and fucking vote for harris and give everyone a fighting chance.
also if you're still in the 'they're both as bad as eachother' delirium, please take your head out from between your cheeks and consider that your options are an imperfect president and the literal worst person alive who is going to get masses of people killed. i've said it like this before, but it's like deciding between maybe getting food poisoning or definitely having a brain aneurysm. take your pick i guess but don't be surprised when you drop dead.
#ramble#sorry to keep posting about this but i am so worried about this fucking election#which is crazy bc it's not even my country#idk there's just lots of people i don't want to be horribly killed or tortured#i was really afraid when it was biden but you have a BIT of hope now#the 'burn it down and start again' revolution isn't coming you have to use your brains please#not to be dramatic but if you think harris and trump are the same you might be the actual dumbest person walking on earth#when we look back on stuff in history and say 'i would've spoken up. how did nobody stop this?'#this is how you stop it.

Homeless Care Package
Some things I'll be buying to make a care package for my local homeless person:
Socks, t- shirt, maybe underwear if it's not too weird, he probably needs it though
Dried foods; jerky, granola bars and dried fruit etc
Tasty sweet treat like a chocolate bar
Instant coffee
Thermos bottle
2 hot water bottles
Multivitamins
Bottled waters
Hand sanitiser and wet wipes
Bar of soap
Nail clipper
Small first aid kit
Gift card to a grocery store
Rain poncho
Sunscreen
Thermal blanket
Personal note letting him know that his situation is not his fault because the government and society is supposed to take care of people, but they don't because of greed and short sightedness
Feel free to take inspiration and make a care package for a homeless person in your city/town. You don't have to show your face, you can wear a face mask and sunglasses, and go with a friend if you're nervous.
It's a small gesture that can go a long way in giving a person hope. Even just cash or a grocery store gift card is a good thing to give. Life is unpredictable. It can take a turn for the worse and suddenly become very hard for anyone
We were never meant to go it alone.
#and I don't wanna hear any fuckin thing about how you think we shouldn't help the homeless because they smell and do drugs or whatever#they wouldn't smell and do drugs if someone helped them now would they?#hopecore#hopepunk#solarpunk#peaceful revolution#greenhorizon#anti capitalism#climate change solutions#naturecore#forestcore#lunarpunk#homeless crisis#uk#radical compassion#radical hope#homelessness#housing crisis#radical empathy#inequality#poverty#activism#mutual aid#give up on the government#create the positive change you wish to see in the world yourself#according to your ability#government#politics#human rights#social justice

“Rise like lions after slumber, In unvanquishable number! Shake your chains to earth, like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you: Ye are many - they are few”.
― Percy Bysshe Shelley, "The Masque of Anarchy"

I will say, it is odd how many liberals in the imperial core will become adult converts to judaism or islam essentially solely because those are minority religions in their historically-christian countries, and are therefore seen as being inherently progressive or revolutionary in some way.

I’ve got 18th century France on the brain again, here he is as a cuirassier ❤️
#hws france#aph france#historical hetalia#hetalia fanart#temmie tidbits#clothing might have some inaccuracies#I realized halfway through coloring this that the fur on the helmet actually looks completely different but fuck it we ball#anyways I’ve been thinking a lot about françois during the French revolution and the Napoleonic wars#I hate that he’s living in my head rent free now /lh

After the death of Aaron Bushnell I can't stop thinking about the quote "Revolutionary suicide does not mean that I and my comrades have a death wish; it means just the opposite. we have such a strong desire to live with hope and human dignity that existence without them is impossible."
#It is cyclical in my mind#This is the second self immolation#We need change and we need it now#When will it fucking end#aaron bushnell#Palestine#Free palestine#free gaza#Protest#self immolation#Fire#Revolution#israel#Genocide
