The last known caterpillar that could have become a Sacramento Mountains checkerspot butterfly has died.

The term for an animal that is the sole survivor of a species is endling. In a sense, we are all endlings—each the last of our kind.

The loss of a species is not simply the loss of a biological category—it is the loss of countless unique individuals and their collective potential.

Each of us is the bearer of a singular and unrepeatable world. This is a memento mori, a reminder to honor what is fragile and irreducible in all beings.

Toughie, the last of the Rabbs’ Fringe-Limbed Treefrogs, taught us the word endling. He passed away on September 26, 2016. May all of us still living fight to defend each other and the beauty of the world.

Neither the ruling class nor the wars that they engender can offer anything that is worth trading your life for.

Don't let them reduce you to a Memorial Day statistic.

"In Mr. Netanyahu’s video statement on Monday night, he said that Israeli forces had in recent weeks killed more than 600 Hezbollah militants."

And this is in the midst of the supposed ceasefire.

Nothing but worldwide resistance to Israeli state violence will stop the Israeli military from pursuing a policy of genocide in Lebanon just like the one they have been perpetrating in Gaza.

Once again, it turns out that "run the country like a business" means "run the country like a dictatorship."

This, in turn, reveals how much despotism we take for granted in the economy. Capitalism has accustomed us to authoritarianism. Now our political institutions are catching up.

Six years ago today, in response to Minneapolis police murdering George Floyd, demonstrators drove them out of the Third Precinct and burned it to the ground—a courageous act of solidarity showing that profound social change is always within reach.

How did they accomplish that?

For the six-year anniversary of the burning of the Third Precinct in Minneapolis, we've prepared a zine version of "Anarchists in the Movement against Police and White Supremacy," charting the ways that anarchists contributed to uprisings against the police from the Rodney King riots of 1992 to the George Floyd Revolt in Minneapolis in 2020.

Please print these out and distribute them!

This montage of footage by Unicorn Riot shows demonstrators chasing police away from the Third Precinct, invading it, setting it on fire, and celebrating with fireworks as it burns down on the night of May 28, 2020.

Pass on the history of resistance. 🏴
