Historias cuentan que el payaso se encontraba en el sitio, incluso desde antes de que la pareja estrella lo fundara, chistes acerca de los siglos que transcurrió sentado en el tronco de un viejo árbol en espera de la llegada de aquellos “elegidos”, que en cuanto lo vieran, sabrían que era el lugar para establecer el Euphoria Carnival.

Pippo, señal divina para asentar el hogar de los mejores artistas, la historia real, sin embargo, esconde menos misticismo. Fue durante un diciembre, el año se encuentra perdido en los recuerdos de aquellos que más tiempo llevan dentro del show. Un diciembre frío, como todos los que se siguen viviendo en París.

El hombre había entrado a lado del conde, mucho más bajo que este, especialmente por las plataformas que el japonés siempre porta, robusto, con las patas de gallo y los surcos nasogenianos bien marcados, señal de años de sonrisas, de andar confiado y de mirada franca, presentado con un simple "Un viejo amigo" en voz del conde.

Al menos, eso es lo que cuentan ahora, mientras un ataúd, que protege a un Pippo ausente, baja hacia la tierra cubriéndose por tierra y flores, las sonrisas que provocó durante años, se han vuelto lágrimas. Escueta y discreta ceremonia fúnebre es contraste con la personalidad de aquel a quien despide, menos de lo que merece a opinión de la mayoría, señal de ingratitud para los otros.

Han pasado solo dos días, y las labores de limpieza comenzaron, han de entregar el remolque a alguien más que si lo utilice, aquellos más cercanos a él son quienes se están encargando de sus pertenencias, la vida, como siempre, no se detiene por nadie.

DATOS OOC

¡Qué tal por allá! Aquí comienza la segunda actividad. En este caso, pueden ubicarse en cualquier parte del circo que deseen y haremos uso de sentence starters para comenzar a rolear.

En caso de que existiesen dudas sobre esto, no hay luz eléctrica, el "apagón", como le llaman a la falla en satélites y antenas, fue algo que afectó mundialmente y causó este fenómeno. Sucedió hace 40 años, volviendo a pocas las personas que conocieron la vida antes de la "oscuridad".

Esta actividad se llevará por medio de sentence starters. Consideremos mandar a todos para rolear.

Durante esta actividad no se permitirán los starters privados.

Esta actividad tendrá una duración de dos semanas, comenzando hoy 19 de marzo y terminando el día 1 de abril, pero la primera intervención se realizará el día 25 de marzo.

Hey, the ACLU is getting people to send letters to your Reps to have Congress pass the No Kings Act.

This bill is to ensure that even sitting presidents are held liable for their actions. That NOBODY is above the law.

Their goal is 150k messages sent and at the time of writing this they're about 2.1k off from that goal!

ACLU gives you a prefilled message that you can edit to send to make the process easier, and will send it out for you.

This only takes a few minutes!

Ive said this before but swear the biggest skill to learn as an adult is how to resist high-pressure sales tactics. You do NOT have to answer questions with anything other than "Sorry I'm not interested." No matter how nice they are or no matter how many follow up questions they ask or even how agitated they get when you stand your ground. Just keep saying I'm not interested. Don't answer their questions. Don't give them an opening to try to push back on your reasons. Be a fucking brick wall of I'm not interested.

idk thinking about how sometimes you have to show up for people you aren't that close to, because sometimes you're just the person who's there. sometimes you invite a new friend to a party and end up having to sit with them through a panic attack. sometimes you run into an acquaintance on their worst day and they need to talk about what happened. sometimes someone is crying in a stairwell and you're the only one around to ask if they're okay. and none of this is "trauma dumping" or whatever the fuck it's just being there for people because you're the one in the room with them.

asking people to be mindful of others when sharing a communal space (especially one you cannot just up and leave from) is not selfish or misanthropic. come on now

25 ways to be a little more punk in 2025

Cut fast fashion - buy used, learn to mend and/or make your own clothes, buy fewer clothes less often so you can save up for ethically made quality

Cancel subscriptions - relearn how to pirate media, spend $10/month buying a digital album from a small artist instead of on Spotify, stream on free services since the paid ones make you watch ads anyway

Green your community - there's lots of ways to do this, like seedbombing or joining a community garden or organizing neighborhood trash pickups

Be kind - stop to give directions, check on stopped cars, smile at kids, let people cut you in line, offer to get stuff off the high shelf, hold the door, ask people if they're okay

Intervene - learn bystander intervention techniques and be prepared to use them, even if it feels awkward

Get closer to your food - grow it yourself, can and preserve it, buy from a farmstand, learn where it's from, go fishing, make it from scratch, learn a new ingredient

Use opensource software - try LibreOffice, try Reaper, learn Linux, use a free Photoshop clone. The next time an app tries to force you to pay, look to see if there's an opensource alternative

Make less trash - start a compost, be mindful of packaging, find another use for that plastic, make it a challenge for yourself!

Get involved in local politics - show up at meetings for city council, the zoning commission, the park district, school boards; fight the NIMBYs that always show up and force them to focus on the things impacting the most vulnerable folks in your community

DIY > fashion - shake off the obsession with pristine presentation that you've been taught! Cut your own hair, use homemade cosmetics, exchange mani/pedis with friends, make your own jewelry, duct tape those broken headphones!

Ditch Google - Chromium browsers (which is almost all of them) are now bloated spyware, and Google search sucks now, so why not finally make the jump to Firefox and another search like DuckDuckGo? Or put the Wikipedia app on your phone and look things up there?

Forage - learn about local edible plants and how to safely and sustainably harvest them or go find fruit trees and such accessible to the public.

Volunteer - every week tutoring at the library or once a month at the humane society or twice a year serving food at the soup kitchen, you can find something that matches your availability

Help your neighbors - which means you have to meet them first and find out how you can help (including your unhoused neighbors), like elderly or disabled folks that might need help with yardwork or who that escape artist dog belongs to or whether the police have been hassling people sleeping rough

Fix stuff - the next time something breaks (a small appliance, an electronic, a piece of furniture, etc.), see if you can figure out what's wrong with it, if there are tutorials on fixing it, or if you can order a replacement part from the manufacturer instead of trashing the whole thing

Mix up your transit - find out what's walkable, try biking instead of driving, try public transit and complain to the city if it sucks, take a train instead of a plane, start a carpool at work

Engage in the arts - go see a local play, check out an art gallery or a small museum, buy art from the farmer's market

Go to the library - to check out a book or a movie or a CD, to use the computers or the printer, to find out if they have other weird rentals like a seed library or luggage, to use meeting space, to file your taxes, to take a class, to ask question

Listen local - see what's happening at local music venues or other events where local musicians will be performing, stop for buskers, find a favorite artist, and support them

Buy local - it's less convenient than online shopping or going to a big box store that sells everything, but try buying what you can from small local shops in your area

Become unmarketable - there are a lot of ways you can disrupt your online marketing surveillance, including buying less, using decoy emails, deleting or removing permissions from apps that spy on you, checking your privacy settings, not clicking advertising links, and...

Use cash - go to the bank and take out cash instead of using your credit card or e-payment for everything! It's better on small businesses and it's untraceable

Give what you can - as capitalism churns on, normal shmucks have less and less, so think about what you can give (time, money, skills, space, stuff) and how it will make the most impact

Talk about wages - with your coworkers, with your friends, while unionizing! Stop thinking about wages as a measure of your worth and talk about whether or not the bosses are paying fairly for the labor they receive

Think about wealthflow - there are a thousand little mechanisms that corporations and billionaires use to capture wealth from the lower class: fees for transactions, interest, vendor platforms, subscriptions, and more. Start thinking about where your money goes, how and where it's getting captured and removed from our class, and where you have the ability to cut off the flow and pass cash directly to your fellow working class people
