Trotsky's ashes stolen and baked in cookies

It was a protest by anarchists, who are still mad at him.

Eighty eight years of the day Trotsky directed the suppression of the anarchist uprising in Krondstadt, a group of bandits scaled the walls of his former house in Mexico City during the late hours at night. We broke the lock on his mausoleum and we expropriate the content inside it: a silver large vase that bears the inscription of his name, wrapped in the red scarf that he carried around the neck, containing the ashes of the corpse inside. We replace with care the lock in the monument with a reproduction that was similar in the appearance and escaped into the night.

The vase along with its content then was taken far away to a place where the vase was discarded and the content (a combination of ash and bone) were baked in cookies. These cookies then were sent, along with a letter that explains our actions, to newspapers, to organizations of Trotskyists, and to the groups of anarchist around the world.

I whipped some of the backyard into shape. I realized I'm not so much a gardener as a plant coach, cutting the weak ones from the team, encouraging the good ones to stretch out and grow.

And, occasionally, slipping some steroidsfertilizer to the really deserving ones.

Maybe you should watch that other video, Tommy.

Isn't that an oxymoron? At least if they are performing a coordinated effort?

I went to the library and the park, where a middle aged Mexican man tried to pick me up. Good times. At least he went away after I asked him to the first time.

Happy Birthday, beth!

Publix's spicy fried chicken wings are fairly crack-like. Especially with Newman's Own Honey Mustard dressing.

I forgot: Happy birthday, beth!

one corner of the room done and one piece of furniture moved (in which I discovered something broken on it that needs fixing) and I am pooped.

I've started dinner so that will at least be done, but no way am I finishing the room tonight. darn it.

Umm, no. Not if the organization is voluntary, and has no coercive power. That is as long as both joining is voluntary, and continued cooperatation is also voluntary even exreme individualist anarchists are fine with it. And of course many anarchists are social anarchists rather than individualist anarchists. I often comment that as a somewhat scattered individual I'm nowhere near well organized enough to be an anarchist.

Getting revenge on/protesting dead people by baking their ashes into cookies seems a very odd thing to do regardless. Perhaps this was performance art by dadaists satirizing anarchists? Umm because stupid people never cross the line into self-parody....

How old is middle aged these days?

Managed it up and down the stairs without severe knee pain. This is very exciting.
