El viernes pasado falleció a sus 100 años Margit Frenk, maestra absoluta de literatura del Siglo de Oro y de cultura popular. No sé por dónde empezar, pero quiero hablar de ella. Pocas obras de investigación humanística tienen la trascendencia de su legado

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.
My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

if i've learned one thing from doing union stuff while also doing other forms of organizing, it's that you're better off with people you disagree with who are nevertheless trying to do the same thing as you than with people you agree with who aren't trying to do anything

Es importante saber que están rompiendo las reglas, precisamente porque están perdiendo. Romper las reglas, a medio plazo, es perder más aún y por más tiempo. Este sería un buen momento para elaborar una agenda progresista efectiva, material, sin sentimentalismo. Vivienda.

Today there was an attempted ICE raid in Bensonhurst & community members showed up. Even though NYPD collaborated with ICE by trying to disburse the crowd; community members stood their ground & ICE left without kidnapping a single person per the rapid response groups I'm on. We protect us!

One of the strangest aspects of aging that they don't warn you about is watching as history gets rewritten right in front of your face and people 20 years younger than you confidently tell you about something you lived through and get it completely wrong.
