One of the comments says the lyrics are just titles of Spotify playlists. I'm not sure if it's true, but I can see it.
Love this new single and video from Kim Gordon. New album out tomorrow.

it’s never felt more stark to me, the way direct action, community defense, and a whole host of forms of refusal are being blunted by those see (and/or who want others to see) such actions as “disagreement with a policy” or “seeking policy change”
A question for housing history folks out there: Back when these kinds of things were built, how did say, rowhouses for the working class/poor people get built as opposed to fancy apartment buildings or houses? Any books, articles, etc. you'd recommend? #housinghistory #rowhouses #housingjustice
A black cat stares out a window into a couple of backyards in Pittsburgh. It just feels super yinzy.
A rough week: funeral for my partner's mom (on his birthday, nonetheless), war(s) (things are happening in Ecuador, too), and general exhaustion. I'm almost finish with my half of the Girl Scout cookies though. Here is Fergus while contemplating the backyard:
I need everyone to address him as "Marquan," and then say, when corrected, "I'm sorry. I just have trouble with ethnic names."
Congratulations DHS Secretary Stephen miller on continuing to be DHS Secretary
meanwhile, war rages on at home.
You Have the Floor is a seven-day series of community town halls across the Greater Pittsburgh region. No speeches. No panels.

Rich ordered 🍕 so I can only think about 🍕 right now
PS: Sorry if it seems like I'm saying @marisakabas.bsky.social is "just marketing"! She's a great and important journalist (duh). I'm just saying that it is just so hard to break away from what the Internet is now, and I admire people who are finding a way.
I know getting people's attention has been a thing since the printing press was invented, but now it feels like the only option for any creative outlet if you want to be even mildly successful.
...participating in the very things the program criticizes. How do you create digital culture without it just being marketing and trying to horde people's attention?
This is a related tangent to this comment, I think. I'm in a digital media certificate program at the U of Pittsburgh. I like that about half of the program is based in media criticism, visual culture, media history, etc. But the other more "practical" half is fully...

Columbia President with NEW details:
5 DHS agents entered a residency with no warrant.
They said they were police looking for a missing kid.
Security camera even captures them showing pictures of the "kid."
A campus officer asked for a warrant & their boss.
They ignored him & took the student.
I got hives just from all those italics.
2026 white supremacy is 1776 white supremacy.
One of my favorite bands from the 90s. Great pop, occasionally verging on punk in noisier songs. This is a quieter and sad song. youtu.be/1rs-QFaG8G4?...
(After talking to the agent about stuff I like to do on trips, meal preferences, budget, etc. Places are complicated!)
I feel like I read somewhere (specific, I know!) that travel agencies/agents are making a comeback. I'd honestly love to be handed a packet and it's just "Boom, here's your trip."
Me after I go to a store, buy a thing, and then I immediately have the thing and don't have to wait for the mail or whatever:
I wonder if there are any Americans who need healthcare and aren’t being taken care of.
Yeah, I think reposting is the only way besides posting a lot. I guess I need posts that I think are worthy of reposting, ha.
And another thought: I feel like to be really engaged on here, you have to post all the time. Or at least a lot of the time. On the other hand, it's probably good to just not be so engaged. 🤷♂️
I like how you can pluck any political polling article from the newswires professing to examine electoral beliefs, and never, in a million years, see the author acknowledge the american information diet predominately now consists of corporatist sewage or right wing algorithmic agitprop
