This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

omg ive been hearing this so much (in conversations) they (and many others) want folks form the US to say USians
Actually, it’s unforgivable in a certain continental European country for a citizen of the United States to refer to him-/herself as an American.

if i led a newsroom, i'd be focusing less on "here is every disgusting epstein email," & more on "here are survivor perspectives," "here's how this was enabled," "here's how to oust pedophiles in your community," "this is how grooming impacts someone for years after," "here are free resources," etc.

theme song 🌹

I'm tired of talking
Sick of watching people rush while they are walking
It's contagious, but for ages we have all just gotten by
Living in that same old lie
Let's break free while we're alive, while we still smile

Fuck it, I'm a flower

Personally I think if your favorite DSA member shakes hands with a fascist he shouldn’t be your favorite DSA member anymore. But I don’t have a favorite DSA member so maybe I don’t know how it works.
Wow folks are really excited that the fascist leader of the United States shook hands with their favorite DSA member

aww. tfw you remember the first time you read this and felt connected.
Her concern with landscapes and living creatures was passionate. This concern, feebly called, “the love of nature” seemed to Shevek to be something much broader than love.

This is what happens when you don’t aggressively kill, sometimes on a daily basis, the part of you that was indoctrinated to be impressed by and enamored with power and its many affirmations. So ridiculous.

And day to day, life's a hard job, you get tired, you lose the pattern. You need distance, interval. The way to see how beautiful the earth is, is to see it as the moon. The way to see how beautiful life is, is from the vantage point of death.
