Anyway, I need to restart my online persona here.

I’m m: A philosopher of the people, interdisciplinary scholar, and a riot.

I care about Black thought, Black people, history, the truth, and liberation. 🍉

New — I was fortunate to speak in front of students and faculty at Grinnell College in Iowa tonight about the business of independent journalism, the current state of media under Trump 2.0, and billionaire control.

I published my full speech because I thought it might resonate beyond campus:

Truth, morality and independence in journalism under the second Trump regime

My full remarks to students and faculty at Grennell College.

Sick research; thanks for your work and for sharing! Will be adding this to a working bib for a psychoanalysis of digital worlds class I’m currently taking. 🙏🏾

This is random/unrelated and may be weird (sorry) because I don’t know you and have never seen anything outside of your avatar; however, I saw someone in LA last week who looked *exactly* like said avatar. lol. Any way. Hi! ✨

When I tell you this whole thing is a riot?! 😭 @msolurin.bsky.social had me cracking up about it, too, in this first section of Olay & Friends. bsky.app/profile/msol...

Understood. I almost broke my brain (thanks ocd!) during the beginning days of this hell and really deluded myself into a kind of apathy that just could not continue. I’ve had to reconcile the unmasked time but am glad to choose safety again for me and my community. 🙏🏾

When I tell you I have a renewed commitment to masking?!? My anxiety won’t let me raw dog the air anymore. I was already generally masking in crowds and always while traveling. Now I’m back to vigilance b/c the people are careless!

Fundamentally, no one believes the Dem base will truly get violent, and if they do, the cops will put them down, whereas everyone believes the GOP base will get violent, and when they do the cops won’t stand in their way.

Foucault: “Politics is war by other means.”

Adam Serwer @adamserwer.bsky.social · Mar 14

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

If you’re able, please support Rudy and his team as they continue to build a separate community for us on #blacksky! They deserve all the support for how they’ve handled things from day 1 for our community.

Oh, yes! Your last bit is the perfect paradox, too. Something we all need—food, sustenance—is made valuable thru the devaluation of labor. When you throw gender into the mix? You get the nasty truth of it.

Honestly, most meal prep companies that aren’t Meals on Wheels bother me in a particular way (not on no ableist type shit, though 🫶🏾) I’m not sure if it’s the inefficiency of it or really just the *capitalism* of it (which isn’t necessarily exclusive of inefficiency 💀)

This seems related to "it's not a genocide until everyone is dead"

Olúfẹ́mi O. Táíwò @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social · Feb 5

that said: I think the "it's not fascism unless they're good at it" brand of analysis probably isn't the move
