“La Movida está denostada. La derecha los tiene como unos drogadictos maricones; la izquierda, como gente que no se politizó lo suficiente”
Hablé con Carlota Casado, decoradora en jefe de Almodóvar y guardiana de que la Movida no se fosilice como un cliché

Carlota Casado, la mujer que sueña con un museo de la Movida
Es hija de la Movida en sentido figurado y literal: es colaboradora habitual de Almodóvar e hija de la diseñadora Elisa Bracci. Por eso le preocupa que a aquella generación le pase lo que a todo recue...

Emilia Pardo Bazán dedicó especial atención a los asesinatos de mujeres, “mujericidios”:
«El récord de la criminalidad lo baten los románticos del honor, los asesinos de mujeres, los suicidas en combinación, que primero despachan a su novia y luego se vuelan la tapa de lo que no tienen» (1902).

The fascist right doesn’t believe that American Jews belong in America. They want us to live in our own ethno-state—not here.
People like Zohran believe America is a multiracial democracy in which everyone should belong.
It’s insane the latter is treated as antisemitism.

we still haven't moved past the double meaning problem here---the people who want Zohran to be "tougher on antisemitism" really mean "silent on Israeli genocide."
WELKER: What is your message to Jewish New Yorkers who feel you won't be tough enough in your response to antisemitism?
MAMDANI: That I am looking forward to being the next mayor and fulfilling the commitment I've made to Jewish New Yorkers to not only protect them but to celebrate and cherish them

In normal democracy terms, we've in bad shape and things are getting worse.
In consolidated authoritarianism terms, we're doing pretty well, as the regime is haphazard, meeting resistance, and growing increasingly unpopular.
Depends on one's perspective. I started using the latter standard in Jan.

It is good to see the pushback on Trump lead to real losses for him. But it's hard to be optimistic when he still wields the enormous power of the presidency. ICE is still rampaging, HHS is harming people, the U.S. may be about to sell out Ukraine, the boat strikes...he's still doing so much damage.

Q: Why did you fly here? Aren't trains greener?
MAMDANI: I will use every form of transit and I want to make sure they are all affordable in NYC
TRUMP: That's a lot quicker too, in all fairness. I'll stick up for you.

I feel like the last couple decades of "is representation good or not?" discourse missed more important questions of "how fragile is representation?", "what do we do when multiple industries eliminate it as an intentional move against us?" and "how can we sustain queer artists when shit goes south?"
