Gah help I wrote shitty protest poetry

I don’t know how much longer I’ve got

Life has fucked us over a lot

 It may be a minute, it may be a millennium

All we’ve got left is alcohol and bottles of valium

 And the feeling we’re wasting away

Nothing left to do but decay

We’ve got something to do, something to say

Everything to lose, no reason to stay

 We may speak like we know a lot

But in the end we know our wit’s all we’ve got

 We fight for our future, with all that we’ve got

We fight our future, because like it or not

 We haven’t got much time and we haven’t got much money

We haven’t got much food and we don’t think that’s funny

 We laugh away our lives to hide the pain

We live and we die, afraid to fade

Away into the nothingness or the afterlife

We use what we have left as a way to fight

 We may get some shit wrong, it’s inevitable

Since birth we’ve been told we’re inimitable

 But the world we live in tells us otherwise

Rich waging war while we slowly die

Dying takes forever for those afraid to die

I don’t care enough anymore to continue to lie

Pretend I have plans for a future so bright

When all that’s ahead is fire and knives

Gunpowder, teargas and broken minds

 As we watch on the news as people like us die

When people who raised us tell us not to fight

 To give up is a quiet death;

To fight for our future

When it’s a hopeless mess

 They say I’m a pessimist but maybe I see

Something more than apathy

 I look at people my age and see something inside

Something worth living for, for something to die

 Fight for that future ‘til my final breath

Because I’ll be damned if I have a quiet death.

I think this is important for me to say, especially as someone who is far below the poverty line and disabled myself.

Now is the time to get fat, especially for people who are going to be put at risk by tariffs and restrictions on food stamps.

Now is the time to learn how to forage and how to use herbs to prevent and treat simple ailments.

Now is the time to learn first aid, how to stitch wounds, how to prevent a bullet wound from killing someone.

Now is the time to make plans to help disabled folks who can't run or defend themselves.

Now is the time to build muscle if you are physically able.

Now is the time to learn how to mend or create clothing.

Now is the time to try and transfer to physical media, and to transfer important information into something physical.

Now is the time to learn media literacy and how to decipher fake news.

Now is the time to understand that being a doomer will help no one, especially not yourself.

Things are going to shit. Prepare yourself as well as you are able. Don't spend your time worrying about impending doom, that won't help you. But what will help you is being prepared for things to go wrong. Start being more loving to the people who deserve it. Start taking care of yourself so that if at some point you can't, you'll have more time to change that fact. Start being hopeful. Start being angry if you aren't already. Start forgiving yourself, because you are your biggest ally. Start learning. About yourself. About how to support yourself. About the world. I love you, and we will all get through this via the aid of ourselves and others.

I'm joining in on the trend of making polls to capture your attention with the hope that you'll keep reading to hear about Mounir Raed Alanqar from Gaza (number 8 on the vetted gfms spreadsheet) who messaged me earlier today.

this is what they sent

Tumblr message reading "This bombing was close to me while we lived in this building, and it was directly behind us, and we miraculously survived it"
photo of blue sky with grey smoke building up in the background
art of a child in two different time frames, one wearing a yellow shirt and looking put together and the other wearing a white shirt with messy hair, looking sadder with text that reads "help us survive from this war"

they are only 19 and fundraising for themselves and their younger sister Sham, who is 4 years old and developing a skin condition.

Please donate to their GFM or at least share their account and their story like I am doing. at time of posting they gave raised €1786 / €35000 and the last donation was 7 hours ago!!!
