Vive le resistance

[kitchen_kink]

At work, a guy often pops in to pick up and drop off projects for copying. He always has a kind word, but seems to have a cynical edge. Maybe he's gay. He seems like a person too intelligent for what he's doing.

As he's leaving, he says rather conspiratorily, and with a kind of wheedling upturn at the end of each phrase, "Protest. Copley Square. After work."

I say, "Thanks."

If you go, please do be careful. Though folks like you and I and your coworker clearly hold sacred the right to voice contrary opinions, the Powers That Be are in no mood to see it that way just now.

We only become victims of dictatorship if we let ouselves.

America is still a republic, at least on paper. We recovered from Reagan (somewhat). We'll recover from W. It'll take work. If we don't use our freedoms, we lose them.

Have a good protest!
