A stack of magazines titled Lumpen: A Journal for Poor and Working Class Writers. The cover is a colourful cartoon illustration of a busy community-care scene with people interacting in a common room. Some characters are gardening, reading, or helping each other. Signs on the walls read β€˜Welfare Not Warfare’ and β€˜DWP Stop Killing Us.’ The issue information at the bottom right says: β€˜Issue 16 β€” β€œClass and Care” β€” Autumn 2025 β€” Β£6.50.’

It could be a little challenging to read for anyone who thinks that anarchist thought ends somewhere on the eastern German border, then there is a void, and then it resumes in Moscow on the KRAS website. 3/4

The book is a selection of writings by anarchists involved in mutual aid and civil defence of Ukraine against Russia's imperial aggression. Working on it was a somewhat unexpected project during an already busy time, so we may publish a better, polished, and expanded version sometime next year. 2/4

A little while ago, I translated from Polish, edited the English text, and, together with one of my best comrades @rhyddical.bsky.social , designed and typeset a book titled Freedom or Death: The War in Ukraine and the Refugee Crisis. 1/4

Antisemitism on the left has been around and tolerated as long as I've been active (which is a fucking while now). It is not hard to counter. Palestine solidarity groups and actual fucking Palestinians have been doing it for years. People spout this shit? Kick them out.

Things are escalating pretty quickly.

First Trump presidency, we were arguing with the liberals whether it’s ok to punch fascists.

Now we are arguing whether it’s ok to shoot them.

Chocolate habaneros are some of the prettiest chillies I’ve grown.

Also, a dead fascist is always the best outcome, and a life-saving one.

One of the pieces we published in the latest issues of Lumpen. Pened by my co-worker Amy, it is a rather timely text.

Processing yesterday's check-in call with my work's biggest funder. As someone with massive imposter syndrome, mainly I must process the fact that they seem to think that I'm a great publisher and a decent editor. Which is quite a nice thing to hear, ngl 😎

A screenshot of the following text: β€œFor me, the situation in the anarchist movement is very reminiscent of something that happened to me in Greece. During one of my trips around the country, I had the good fortune to find myself in the same car as some Greek anti-fascists. It was a long journey, and I fell asleep quite quickly. Half an hour later, I was awakened by Russian Nazi rap. When I asked the Greek anti-fascists where they got such music, they replied that it was a gift from their anti-fascist friends in Donbas. When I told them that it was Nazi rap, they simply dismissed my comment. Fortunately, the Greek anti-fascists did not insist that we continue listening to the music of their friends from Donbas.”

I can’t even begin to explain how strongly familiar this experience is. Thanks to the author for this text, and to @freedompress.bsky.social for publishing it.

@organisemag.bsky.social published my editorial for the newest issue of Lumpen. It's a good issue! And I'm not saying it only because I edited it. Also, it's the second piece of work I put together in InDesign: a new skill I'm pretty proud of.

Lumpen 15 Editorial | Editorial - Organise Magazine The first time I had lived experience of how deep class division in the UK runs was shortly after my arrival, when a much younger version of myself began my first romantic relationship on these isles....

Really happy to share the Editorial from Lumpen 15 by @classworkproject.bsky.social's @zosiabrom.bsky.social.

It's an important opener to an important edition of an important periodical. You should get on that ;p

How does CWP define 'class'?

This is a painful read, but an important one, I think.
How can we abolish the prison system if we can't keep our own practices of transformative justice from being turned into tools of power and abuse?
