by Stewart "Brittlestar" Reynolds (Author)

The Subtle Art of Resistance: Lessons from Cats for Surviving Fascism is your ultimate guide to channeling feline wisdom in the face of authoritarian nonsense. Cats, the original masters of stealth, sass, and strategic chaos, have been teaching us survival tactics for centuries—they just haven’t been this explicit about it. Until now.

Through humor, sharp insights, and unapologetic defiance, this book lays out nine essential cat-inspired strategies for resisting control and reclaiming power. From staying nimble and unpredictable to demanding what you need with the confidence of a hungry tabby, each chapter is packed with lessons that are as subversive as they are practical. You’ll learn to:

Confuse the oppressors by refusing predictability.
Rest unapologetically because naps are resistance.
Knock over the symbols of power—metaphorically and literally.
Use cuteness as a secret weapon.
Occupy spaces with boldness and purpose.
Whether you’re facing off against a system that thrives on control or just trying to make sense of a chaotic world, these lessons will arm you with the tools—and the attitude—you need to fight back. Cats don’t ask for permission, and neither should you.

Perfect for anyone who’s ever felt powerless, The Subtle Art of Resistance is a rallying cry wrapped in fur, wit, and the occasional swat of a paw. It's not just a book—it’s a call to action for anyone ready to resist, persist, and pounce.

Pss pss pss… it’s time to knock fascism off the table.

*My favorite chapter knock things over strategically chapter 3

Cats are the original disrupters

They don’t just knock things over for fun ( well okay, sometimes it’s fun) theydoiton purpose. A vase here, a mug there, and suddenly the entire room is on the table to being off the table.

Cats know the best way to confront authority isn’t with blind rage, but with deliberate, calculated chaos. And that’s exactly how we should handle fascism.

*We need to be disrupters and short circuit this dictatorship regime.
This book has some great metaphors of what we need to do. It is only 40 pages but I got so much out of it and gave it to my husband who read it in an hour and really enjoyed it.

History will not be kind to the orange taco Hitler, Noem, Homan and Miller who will end up being prosecuted

At The Hague for the concentration camps and snatching innocent people up off the streets for being brown and trying to have better lives. As more people die in these detention centers and these alligator Auschwitz camps the evilness will catch up to them.

I read this article in an Irish paper this is how other countries view us now.

The Trump administration’s new Florida immigration detention center has sparked outrage, with some activists comparing it to the Auschwitz concentration camp operated by Nazis. Protesters have blasted the facility — nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz” — as “inhumane.”

The concentration camp sits atop a concrete airport pad, isolated in the swamplands of the Florida Everglades. Trump claimed the tents are air-conditioned, but the extreme heat and humidity of the Florida summer make humane conditions virtually impossible, particularly if generators fail or fuel supplies run out. If a hurricane were to strike the area, the tents would offer no meaningful protection. The result could be catastrophic, with an unknown number of potential deaths.

At a press conference held after touring the facility, Trump threatened to send US citizens to the camp. “But we also have a lot of bad people that have been here for a long time. … They are not new to our country, they are old to our country. Many of them were born in our country. I think we ought to get them the hell out of here too. You want to know the truth. So maybe that will be the next job we work on together.”

I am appalled everyday how awful, evil, reprehensible and disgusting this administration is!

And I could write so many adjectives to describe this evil regime we are suffering under it would feel multiple pages!

Sorry just had to rant how I am appalled!

I called the Medicare number to enroll in part b and all I got was ads for emergency necklace and

A discount offer for Direct Tv as I kept following instructions I got cut off. I applied for A and B but all they gave me is A and my current health care won’t roll me over to Medicare without having both an and b. When I asked if I could pay out of pocket for healthcare until I straighten it out they said no since I was of age to get Medicare I couldn’t do a basic out of pocket plan!

I so hate what the orange taco Hitler has done to our agencies.

Someone posted the other day a link for ICE List that showed faces, social media and other identities

Of the cos player Ice agents. I went back today to check it and got this message

Not Acceptable!

I guess those little wee wee men didn’t liked being identified and they had someone take down the site. I hope it is replicated somewhere else!

Has anybody seen this Caroline Leavitt impersonator?

She is spot on and hilarious. And I like her crosses.

Someone posted here recently asking why Clinton, Obama and Biden have been quiet about our democracy

Eroding under the orange taco Hitler and I think the reason is they are afraid they will lose secret service protection if the orange monster in anger takes over this security and the repukes in congress are too afraid to stand up to their magaloon leader and disagree.

And I hope Mike Pence and Kamala Harris stay safe. We are headed into a crazy violent hateful environment perpetrated by an evil monster.

Has anyone posted a number of the total participants in the no kings day protests?

I saw NY was 1 million but I wonder what the numbers were nationwide ?

Where I protested in SF it was the largest I’ve ever experienced outside of a Vietnam protest when I observed when I was a kid and the protests went for miles down a Main Street in SF. I have picture of myself and some friends sitting on our front porch balcony watching it !

Does anybody watch ABC evening news ?

I swear they show that Botox Barbie puppy killer commercials with her being a tough woman threatening immigrants who are not documented. I want to scream and throw something at my TV everytime she comes on. it seems before the evening news comes they show that commercial of her all the time !

Went to the No Kings March in SF and it was huge

We had went to the woman March in January 2017 but this was huge. All ages, colors, genders and everyone was peaceful. There was a large contingent of police but they were not threatening and looked chill! we never saw any agitators. I estimate 2-3 thousand people.

Tomorrow at the rallies if we see police or ice attacking protesters

We all need to shout. Shame shame shame shame on you! Freedom of speech and assembly is in our constitution. You are violating our constitution !

I know I’ll be doing it if I see ICE or military at our rallies.
