"People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it." - #Banksy #FWakeBanksy

@evan fellow #Amercans

It is our job right now to wake our fellow citizens up. There are many possible ways to do this. Pick a few and do them today.

Put copies of "On Tyranny" in your local Little Free Library.

Use chalk to write things in public spaces. You can make a plastic stencil and use spray chalk if you want to get your #Banksy on.

Print out memes and flyers. Put them everywhere. Light poles, signs and community boards.

Use wheatpaste for more permanency.

I'll post an Elon Musk WANTED poster today with the hashtag #ResInt

#ScribesAndMakers 3/20 Do you like graffiti? Do you have an example?

I see it as an incredibly powerful artform that has been unjustly vilified by the status quo.

I'd also say it's nearly impossible to create street art (arguably any art) that is politically neutral. It is public art that makes use of both public and private property as its canvas.

Puerto Rico's district of Santurce is alive with vibrant street art and murals. The visual soul of Borikén.

[Comment les écogestes entretiennent la catastrophe] @frustrationmagazine

:molotov: Le système capitaliste écocidaire ne sera pas détruit par les écogestes individuels mais par les actions collectives de "colibris pyromanes". :molotov:

“Un jour, il y eut un immense incendie de forêt. Tous les animaux terrifiés, atterrés, observaient impuissants le désastre. Seul le petit colibri s'activait, allant chercher quelques gouttes avec son bec pour les jeter sur le feu. Après moment, le tatou agacé par cette agitation dérisoire lui dit: Colibri ! Tu n'es pas fou ? Ce n'est pas avec ces gouttes d'eau que tu vas éteindre le feu ! le colibri répondit : je le sais, mais je fais ma
part.”

Légende amérindienne selon Pierre Rabhi

“C’est seulement lorsque le dernier arbre aura été coupé, le dernier poisson pêché et la dernière rivière polluée, que les humains réaliseront à quel poing réciter des fables indiennes est un vrai truc de bouffon.”

And this is so frustrating! Brand new, as virtually all my jigsaws are. I’ll tell you if it’s a swop. Maybe this is a feature of #Banksy ? I’m debating whether to just bin it. Certainly won’t give it to a charity shop. I’ve checked the floor, the table legs, the chair legs, the skirting boards etc in case the piece got lodged anywhere, or fell off the table. Nothing. There are no pets, no kids and no smokers here, so I’m thinking that piece never existed in the first place. Still, if you want it, I’ll post it - otherwise it’s going in the bin. It was pretty challenging once the maid and the graffiti were done. Everything else was either pavement or white wall. #JigsawPuzzle #Banksy
