All due respect (and genuinely, thank you for being the resource you are IRL), I'm not confident I'd've taken your content & tone much better than OP did, and I myself considered inpatient solutions earlier this year. Instead, I opted for: houselessness, cutting off 99% of my blood relatives, and rebuilding myself from zero in a city I'd never been to before (1k+ miles from anyone I know). But, hey, I'm still here. ✊🏻

Maybe take another look at your commentary and see if you can't find yourself between the lines there, coloring things differently than is helpful to OP in this moment, yeah? 🙇🏼‍♂️😅 Just, humor me?

As an alternative for those that don't want to step up their anti-fash self-defense SoP, may I suggest keeping an empty soda bottle (or similar capped container) handy somewhere in one's vehicle?

It takes a very short time indeed to fill said receptacle with your liquid of choice (water? wiper fluid? piss?) and apply it rapidly in volume to one or more chucklefucks' masks to stifle the airflow through the fabric and allow all bystander reporters to easily & legally log that red-faced & breathless porkmeat when Y'all Queso pull their own masks down to keep from waterboarding themselves...

(Note: You can dump, launch, or squeeze/squirt said liquid to achieve that effect, according to your container choice and personal preference for "safe distance" in the moment. Win. ✊🏼)

Besides, if they're fleeing from the sudden fear of being IDed by multiple phone cameras, they're that much less likely to notice the potato in their vehicle's exhaust, the slashed tires, the keyed markings in the paint that'll link the vehicle to the scene, etc.

Stay safe, neighbors. Stay informed. Stay together. ✊🏼

Did he at least give you a courtesy reach-around?

Are you not part of "the left"? Or, are you sitting this one out, too?

I would 100% advise against steeling a car. The DeLorean debacle is only one example of how fucking stupid an idea a steel car is. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Taking small bites and chewing thoroughly is wise, regardless if the target "food" is a pile of hotdogs, an airplane, or the 1%... Don't judge others for the size of their chosen forkful. Let's keep our eyes on our own plates and we'll all be through this deluge of shit sooner. 🤌🏼

Don't worry. It's been a thing for quite a while now... 😅

Gee, I wonder how one could release a super simple open-source app to allow users to post/pin sightings. Hmmm.

That's being generous

What would a protest inside their houses be called? Reverse surprise raid party? 🫡
