Valeriano Orobón Fernández, born on this day in 1901, was a Spanish anarcho-syndicalist theoretician, trade union activist, translator, and poet who wrote the lyrics of the revolutionary song “A Las Barricadas”.
Orobón believed in the organizational power of unions, believe that they would have a major role in reorganizing society in a more libertarian fashion. Orobón was also strongly opposed to the communist (i.e., Soviet) ideas in Spain during the Spanish Civil War.
Shortly before his untimely death from tuberculosis, Orobón wrote the words of “A Las Barricadas” to the tune of “Warszawianka 1905 roku”, itself a well-known Polish revolutionary song. The anti-fascist tune became the anthem of the Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT), and one of the most popular songs of the Spanish anarchists during the Civil War.

I’ll get to continue to see the collapse of my country
from afar for the foreseeable future, that’s nice.
the el salvador shit really feels like looking directly into the eye of evil & it challenging you to fortify your will & sanity & sense of decency & goodwill to not completely crumble at the alien depths of its depravity. im scared for my friends and comrades and to a lesser extent myself.
life is too short and full of brutality to not love yourself and everyone around you. please please do that to whatever extent you can.

MANKIND, BE VIGILANT; WE LOVED YOU.

My cat: just gonna get comfy on this plastic bag.
it’s wild how much a j and a tall boy can improve my mood
latest chapo made an interesting point (admittedly after reminiscing for too long about some TV show I’ve never heard of and will not watch)
whoever takes office after Trump will have to go whole hog in rooting out everything he’s done and punishing officials for their involvement, or all this is just gonna slip into president and we’ll be stuck with this as normal… you know, kinda like what Obama didn’t do after taking the reins from Bush.

Giving yourself brainrot is just a softer version of self elected lobotomy, I say this with experience
The one friend I have in this city can’t stop telling me she considers keeping indoor cats cruel. Every single goddamn time I talk about maybe having a cat some day she just can’t fucking help herself. She knows I’ve lived with indoor cats before and that I loved those cats. I genuinely don’t know if she just doesn’t notice that she has told me about her opinion about this a dozen times already. I sure hope she just forgets she already told me, because she’s otherwise a genuinely emphatic person so she should know she is only hurting me by basically telling me I abused my pets and will continue to abuse any pet I’ll ever have.
Listening to The Once and Future Sex
sex talk
and I just got to the part about midwives having the duty to finger women as a medical procedure, because being horny was considered a dangerous medical ailment for women and alleviating that digitally was not considered sodomy.
Shout out to some medieval theologians for being so misogynists they embrace lesbian sex. Like they’re not just ignoring it, they’re endorsing it.
Canadian redditors can’t stop saying stupid shit like:
If we get annexed by the USA, we will VOOT in their elections, and we’re so progressive it will turn the whole danged congress and senate BLUE, and then Trump will be sorry!
We keep launching celebrities and the wealthy into space and they keep coming back.
Just had so much pizza for breakfast, I’m so bad
stupid libs calling for impeachment of Trump. It didn’t do anything the first 2 or 3 times he was impeached, why would it be different now?
