I think the most basic freedom that all of us can have at any time is not to become the people the ruling class wants us to be: self-centered, incurious, petty, racist, paranoid, uninterested in anything but consumption and not being asked to think about anything that matters.
If you’re a parent, your kid doesn’t need your permission to do a walkout or a protest.

There’s this kind of holier-than-thou tendency to dismiss people’s observations of the world coming apart at the seams by referencing past evils and derisively sneering, “Where have you been?/You’re just now noticing this?” that I think is almost never constructive or helpful.
A pal is working mutual aid in Minneapolis, and is lamenting an interruption in her long distance situationship. We must launch a service where veterans of recently occupied cities go to presently occupied ones as a nourishing hookup squad.
I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement.

Whenever I see Veronica Cartwright in something all I can think of is the cherry pit spewing scene from The Witches of Eastwick.
Happy Half-Century Birthday (one day late) to one of my all-time favorite albums.
