I want to see more radical creativity in service of collective thriving.
More imagination for an equitable, inclusive future that isn’t just about what other people are doing to us, but makes us the heroes of our own story and pushes us into untold possibility.
We have to get better at this.

I want to reiterate my deeply held belief. One of the biggest mistakes we are making with this tech is anthropomorphizing it and treating it like it is actually "reasoning". It's not doing that. And it cannot be held accountable. It's a machine.

A lot of people think the world can be made better by identifying the bad people and making them suffer in exactly the ways that we suffer. I understand that urge. It may bring some kind of catharsis. But we all need to understand that it doesn't actually *solve* anything.

Hey y’all, I’ve been thinking about how fast things changed for all Latiné people in LA. And what I’ve personally done to protect myself and my family. I thought it might be helpful for some of you so thought I’d share. 🧵

So, as I said, I’ve thinking about how we design markets and experiment with something different.
My hope is for new markets ruled by a different set of values which *minimize harm and maximize collective good.*
I believe this is what we want to exist after capitalism.

So I’ve been thinking a lot about markets lately, hoping to experiment with something within a closed system.
Something designed with care and intention, based on lessons learned in community for the last two decades, and rooted in *mutualism.*

The mutualistic sector is the space where labor organizations, mutual aid societies, and coops have operated for decades.
Its support has been hollowed out over the past several decades, and it's time to reinvest here.

😅 It hurts so bad everywhere in the beginning but bodies are insanely adaptable.
Over time, the hurt comes to be a signal that you’re making progress.
True story: I fucking hate working out. But my body rewards me for it greatly 🔥
Now it feels weird when I go too long without exercise.

it's my time to assert I don't understand exercise.
It hurts.
And then the next day, you still hurt. Why would I do that again?

We are at the beginning of a massive labor movement. IT IS A NEGOTIATION.
And it’s not just what the leaders of unions and corporations do, it’s also what each of us do every day — what we say, what we buy, what we pay attention to, what we show up for…
A new model for reciprocity is being born.
