I wrote about this a bit in my last book but it really shakes me that a defining feature of this catastrophic era is that we just keep going to work. We work through pandemics, we work through natural disasters, we work through economic calamity, we work through coups, we work, we work, we work.

“In order to shoot off one email per week for a year, ChatGPT would use up 27 liters of water, or about one-and-a-half jugs… that means if one in 10 U.S. residents—16 million people—asked ChatGPT to write an email a week, it’d cost more than 435 million liters of water.”

Just learned from NPR that the federal government is the largest employer in the great Kansas City area, for example. I found it helpful to be reminded that, of course, this isn’t just about people who work and live in DC. Federal employees are in all of our communities.

I now fervently believe this. Relatedly, I think celebrating good news and embracing joy are equally radical. You have to remember what you’re fighting for. We cannot sustainably organize around sorrow.

White people, it’s not enough to not be racist. Y’all need to HATE racism like Kendrick Lamar hates Drake. Commit to the goddamned bit.

I read somewhere that mainstream media stopped valorizing Greta Thunberg the minute she started connecting climate change to imperialism. Honestly, I thought she had just opted for a more private way of life or something. But nah, they want her to shut up.

If I could make a plea for BlueSky, it’s this: Please make a point of sharing links to articles, essays and more that you LOVE, that you enjoyed, that expanded you in some way.
I’m always surprised by the dominance of hate-shares, complaint shares on here. And I think it has a riptide effect.4,837 1,281Aug 17, 2024 -

We don’t have universal healthcare for the same reason that white southerners poured cement into their community swimming pools rather than let their black neighbors swim in them. Racism is ruining ALL of our lives.

Strikingly, the only group that responded en mass and IMMEDIATELY to the neo-Nazi march this weekend in Columbus was a group of black men.
Everyone else? Oh, they put out statements. Black men linked arms and marched the NEXT day.
And this is why I say “Godspeed” to everyone who ain’t us.5,136 1,116Nov 19, 2024 -

I salute E. Jean Carroll and Stormy Daniels for being braver than all three branches of our government.

It made me physically ill following updates from the Supreme Court today. Sending love to trans people, trans kids especially, and their families because… whew. Enduring this kind of hostility is an experience us cisgender will never fully understand.

HOLY SHIT. I grew up two stoplights over from Flower Mound. I never in my life would’ve expected to see a protest like this there. WOW.

When I see people online, even in jest, suggest that people living in Republican-controlled states should be abandoned because of their politicians, I feel a deep heartache. New York CREATED Donald Trump and none of y’all are ever talk about it the way you disparage Alabama or Mississippi.

There is no justifying felons being disenfranchised if it’s also okay for felons to run for president.

Billie Eilish used her acceptance speech to say: “No one is illegal on stolen land.” And CBS censored her when she said “Fuck ICE.”

“This isn’t a coincidence. It’s the result of federal policy choices — most immediately, sweeping job cuts across public-sector agencies where Black women have long held the strongest foothold in middle-class employment.”

How to critically read a text. This is what the author wrote, here’s one way to interpret what they’re saying and here’s why I think it’s interesting or significant. It’s an invaluable skill. And increasingly rare across different mediums.

So many vulnerable people were hurt, harassed and raped by these ghouls and now—I’m worried—it’s gonna become hehe haha lurid internet circus instead of a long overdue moral reckoning. I’m scared of who we all are becoming. That man has brought us ALL low.

“We are at a moment right now where people are asking themselves why can’t the Democratic Party defend this assault on democracy . . . and I would submit to you that if you can’t draw the line at genocide, you probably can’t draw the line at democracy.” — Ta-Nehisi Coates

“11 sperm whales huddled together at the surface, strangely still and taking occasional shallow dives. After about an hour, the animals seemed to start thrashing, and a plume of blood reddened the water. The researchers feared trouble, maybe a shark attack. But it was something else.”

The student journalists covering the protests on their respective campuses have been consistently so much better than major national news publications.
Wild to think how few jobs are available for those student journalists once they graduate.2,619 615Apr 26, 2024 -

Maybe if we tell them there’s a student encampment inside the White House democrats will spring to action.

Harvard Divinity School punished students for having a PRAYER-IN last semester. I absolutely understand why students have decided to change tactics.
When you tell people to stop protesting genocide, it absolutely impacts how they respond to your shouts about fascism. Everything is connected.Quoted post is unavailable3,050 612Feb 6, 2025
