Moby Dick is an incredible book because it is all of the things Chanda talks about in this video and also it is an excuse for Herman Melville to infodump (often incorrect) Whale Facts on his audience and I love that for him
"everything breaks all at once: a new orleans testament" π¬
no.
yeah, trying to pattern match is exactly what you shouldn't' be doing here. just sit in the fact that this is not familiar to you. it is ok to not know anything about something. i am literally right here telling you about it.
In our latest, Mariame Kaba @prisonculture.bsky.social & Andrea Ritchie @dreanyc123.bsky.social on how to understand the spectacular violence of Trumpβs ICE surges as an extension of the violence of everyday policing, and why to abolish ICE we must abolish the police

We need to be able to make a thumbs-down and a raspberry noise while also recognizing thatβs about all thatβs required.
I really wish it were possible to note that somebody acted like a little shit without that being treated like a total absence of moral character, which then spawns a lot of responses about *not* lacking moral character, which distract from the original issue, which was acting like a little shit.
I have a long running habit of listening to any podcast episode that Mariame Kaba appears on and that has never disappointed me, but one of the episodes that comes back to my mind the most often is this one from One Million Experiments season two: millionexperiments.com/podcast/seas...
So this is unrelated to the water flowing at Calhoun and Willow for months?
"Gender Queer shows struggle without despair, confusion without cynicism, and growth without tidy conclusions."

No one will know what's happening and it will just be depressing. Welcome to the world of creative writing
Chipotle is giving away free burritos if you show your tattoos tomorrow during a power hour in which the employees will want to die, I think Taco Bell should make their employees look at our books and shrug sadly for a free Baja Blast
My main view on here is a chronological feed of "mutuals," meaning ppl I follow who follow me back. I find that's a pretty good firehose.
Opportunities to feel naughty and transgressive without actually creating any potential harm are way too rare in life, and one should seize them whenever one can.
So yes, JUDGE ME FOR MY FOLLOWING PROMISCUITY. Tell me I'm a hopeless sinner. It only fuels my reign of terror!
When someone who seems cool and interesting follows me, I follow back because I like to be in community with cool, interesting people.
But now every time I do it, I know that I'm being bad and improper in the censorious eyes of the labelers bc I follow too many ppl.
Which just makes it more fun.
