Part 2: The Call to Action

FUCK TRUMP

Fuck every one of you who voted for him.

Fuck the system for not being broken, but working just as intended.

To the Queers, the Black and Brown People, The Poor, The Disabled, The Marginalized, and anyone else terrified and angry and numb and everything else:

I know you're scared right now. I am, too. And I'm feeling despair right along with you.

But remember. We will have each other. Remember mutual aid, community, helping one another.

It is long past to be trying to change people's minds. The numbers have made it abundantly clear we can't olive branch ourselves out of this one.

Use your energy to lift up those that will lift you up.

Don't feel bad if you can't fight. We need warriors. Healers. Tanks. But most importantly, we need you to survive.

"Don't panic. Organize!"

Even better, join those that have been organized.

But it's okay if all you can do is keep living.

They want you to die, or they don't care.

Don't let them take you.

Every so often there is invoked a Blood of Eden mission protocol - we call it Protocol One. It is used in times of either terrible joy or the worst possible outcomes. Protocol One means there are no more formal orders... Now I give you Protocol One . . . and Protocol One is 'Live.' Nona the Ninth

Nona the Ninth

For those applicable, enjoy your lil victory lap and be sure to get your stretches in. The lot of us are going to give you hell.

I'm going to do what I can. I am going to live for those that didn't make it. I will live and fight my sorrow. I hope to see you beside me.

Now to survey what is left.
