There's a lot of excellent #advice going around about how to start getting involved in #DirectAction. I'm also thinking about how to keep the #momentum going once we've started, and #build upon what we're doing.

If you've read a #radical book, you can summarize it in a more #accessible format like a #zine, and share what you learned.

If you've planted a #VictoryGarden, you can share what you've grown with your #local #MutualAid network.

This large format camera is made of Lego – and it takes AMAZING photos via Digital Camera World [Shared]

While the recently released Lego Polaroid camera was cool, it didn't actually take photos. Now, however, we have a camera made out of Lego that produces real photographs – and it's large format, too. 

Earlier this month, Alternative Process Photography reposted the result of a passion project made by Cary Norton – a self-described “photographer, tinkerer, and general dweeberist.”

Back in 2009, Norton created the Legotron Mark I, a fully working 4x5 camera constructed almost entirely from Lego bricks. After realizing he wasn’t getting on with the Lego Builder app, he borrowed a ton of Lego bricks from his friend Gregory and set to work building the Legotron.

“What #sacrifices are we willing to make to support our #values? How can we maintain long-term pressure without burning out or reverting to old #shopping habits and items? How do we do this without blaming those who can’t #participate?

Perhaps most importantly, how can we #collectively #build a more self-reliant and #resilient #economy that aligns with our principles and stands strong against external #threats?”

"Some Liberal MPs are mounting a new effort to oust Justin Trudeau"
-CBC

MPs across Parliament Hill this week to sign a pledge demanding change at the top

.... a pledge to stand together in calling for Trudeau to resign, multiple sources said.

.... to secure a commitment from MPs to seek a leadership change, and to bind the MPs to that goal if the prime minister push back.

Lots of time for leadership convention.

LET's GO!
