Fuck were going to need a pumped up kicks for ceos if we keep needing more Luigi. Some music to keep us pumped.

Reminds me of a scene in Fight Club when Robert Paulson accidentally becomes a martyr. The crew partially took his death as, "we are all Robert Paulson," we are all this martyr.

There is a nation of Luigis, and it's everyone. Everyone just has to stop waiting to die. It need not be violent or deadly, either. One way would be merely: Everyone just has to stop. Doing everything. At the same time.

Probably a good time would be around when the supply chains completely collapse in 10 or so days from now.

Hol up I'm OOTL why are supply chains collapsing in 10 days or so

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 24 points 1 day ago

Because it takes 3 weeks for cargo ships to arrive in California from China. Trump announced his tarrifs 3 weeks ago, so imported items are about to drop off

People need to get off the consumer bandwagon in order for this to happen.

Whenever we're on the brink of radical change, all it takes is a new hollywood movie to come out to distract everyone.

Plant your victory garden this year. Hunt. Fill the freezer. Go solar. Build a network of mutual aid.

With supply chains halted, we're all going to be thrown off the consumer bandwagon soon. With no choice in the matter.
