Anybody who’s an aging anarchist knows this reality: there’s no fucking retirement plan for spending your adult life fighting the good fight.

We build movements, organize shit, make media, feed people, fight cops and landlords, keep each other alive—and usually do it with fuck-all money.

So, naturally, when 'Margaret' needed a place for older people to live with dignity, autonomy and community, she did what anarchists have always done: she fucking built it herself.

Now this autonomous old folks’ home needs some help staying afloat.

If you’ve got a few bucks, kick them down. If you don’t, share the shit out of this.

@franklinlopez I knew a scientist who was coerced into working on the Manhattan Project. The Pentagon told him, "You can work for us as a civilian, or we can draft your ass and you can work for us as a soldier."

Hiroshima and Nagasaki horrified him so much, he spent the rest of his life working for peace. He died in 2020 at age 102.
