Granny Weatherwax was often angry. She considered it one of her strong points. Genuine anger was one of the world’s greatest creative forces. But you had to learn how to control it. That didn’t mean you let it trickle away. it meant you dammed it, carefully, let it develop a working head, let it drown whole valleys of the mind and then, just when the whole structure was about to collapse, opened a tiny pipeline at the base and let the iron-hard stream of wrath power the turbines of revenge.

Anger is an important tool. We can do this.

Stay angry.

Organize angry.

Protest angry.

Build angry.

Help angry.

Aid angry.

Fight angry.

Always remind yourself that you will not let this shite stand. That, in the face of oppression, you will provide for your community with an gentle hand and defend it with a clenched fist.

At the very least, it’s what Sir Pterry would’ve done.
