Pretty much everyday various comrades in Myanmar put out lists of links documenting the day. Updates on checkpoints,deaths, medical call outs, tactical reports, videos of atrocities. Many of these links soon go silent, get blocked, turned private or account removed.
This is a translated extract from the March 27. These headers are direct translations, copy and pastes or summing up. Fair warning many of the links take you to horrific pictures and the like.
This is A Day In Myanmar and the days are continuing like this.

This essay is dedicated to all those who say to us “Why bother? It’s hopeless. Just move away to a more progressive state.”
Hello subscribers, readers, everyone, apologies that it's been some time since we gave a general update and have in fact quite quiet in general. Hopefully the following addresses the reasons why and what we intend to do about it.
A few months ago, I came across a funny anecdote in this article summarising police surveillance against Black Anarchist jailhouse lawyer and radical educator, Martin Sostre & his partner and comrade Geraldine Robinson. It described a peculiar scene during a three day riot in Buffalo, New York against police brutality starting on the 27th of […]
After the chaos of the racist rally-turned-riot on Saturday 3rd August, further action had to be organised. Us anti-fascists were heavily outnumbered and had to flee, leaving the rioters to terrorise the city into the night. The following week passed as a fever. As in other cities, leaked screenshots from a group chat showed plans […]
Protests are not always this light, and not everyone will have had such a positive experience this Saturday. Our intention is to show that activism can be a productive and joyful experience in these contested times
"... The organisers wanted to achieve an obviously Right-wing, but dignified protest ... they ended up on drunken, deranged riots, causing a lot of damage to the city that won’t disappear quickly. I think most of the general population are afraid and horrified."
