Some Tech CEO every day: "You don't get to own things now. I own your refrigerator. If you say mean things about me I will turn off your fridge and spoil all your dairy and eggs and meat. If you don't like it you go to jail."

People in my mentions: "Lmao are you REALLY a luddite? smh"

A lady at the farmer's market asked me about my outfit in a half-complimentary, half-derogatory way and all I could think was, "I'm back."

"Permission structure for disregarding quality in the pursuit of velocity"sounds like exactly what has degraded publishing, journalism, healthcare, manufacturing, construction, and more, to the point that most of these industries are actively harmful to the public and the planet.

Good morning!!!

We need reparations for ICE victims.

Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.

ICE is trafficking people who aren’t from there to a tiny landlocked absolute monarchy on the borders of South Africa and Mozambique.

Pollitt, Brownmiller, and every other zionist racist transphobe out there can fuck the hell off, the thought of identifying as a feminist is literally disgusting and has been for a long time, have all the words you want

It is a weakness of our system that the murder of 160 schoolchildren does not result in an immediate dissolution of the government.

Don't Believe What Art Basel Qatar Is Trying to Sell You I fled Qatar to live freely as a queer person. A country that criminalizes LGBTQ+ existence should not be celebrated as a global hub of creative freedom.

Nasser Mohamed, the only publicly queer Qatari citizen, strikes at the heart of an ethical contradiction in the arts today: β€œThe art world cannot claim to champion freedom while ignoring the people who are denied it.”

Except it often does, including Art Basel Qatar.

When you learn how hard it is to get people to come to three consecutive organizing meetings, you tend to spout off less about things.

How a Texas Town Became an Art Project With fewer than 700 residents, Kingsbury has become a hub for cultural governance and sovereignty, largely thanks to advocacy led by arts organization Habitable Spaces.

With fewer than 700 residents, Kingsbury, Texas, is a little utopia. It’s largely thanks to advocacy led by the arts organization Habitable Spaces, which has worked for years to create β€œa nexus between artists and farmers.”

Live Nation has been out there ruining music, one of the few things that makes life enjoyable, for what? Thirty years now? If something bad happens, they sure to be behind it. Clubs closing? LN drove them out of business. Ticket prices high? Live Nation merged with Ticketmaster.

Fuck them forever

1/ Roland Barthes answered this exact question in 1957. His essay "The World of Wrestling" argues pro wrestling isn't a sport pretending to be real. Instead, it's theater. It’s a live β€œmorality play” where heroes and villains act out justice through exaggerated physical storytelling.

Did Barack Obama or Joe Biden ever even utter the wirds β€œHyde Amendment” while in office?
