I crochet. I code. I defend civil liberties. I rage at the machine. Someone told me that if you call yourself a nerd, you’re not one, so. Not one?

This is why he grew more comfortable saying things like more Black men should be arrested and women should know their place. The idea of breaking these “taboos” without consequence is the entire vision they’re selling.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

A Democratic message that leaned in HARD into uplifting the idea of the commons and re-teaching people about importance of PUBLIC GOODS and the fact that they are GOOD and FOR EVERYONE would be an easy place to mobilize lots of people towards a project of building.

I write a lot. It’s never *decisive.* It’s never the argument that changes the minds of the powerful. Nothing I write changes any outcome.
I do it anyway. Because it adds pebbles. If enough people add enough pebbles, then you’ve helped build a mountain. And that’s enough. It has to be.

People in red states are people, FFS. And we didn't all vote for this, even if the guy at the polling place literally hands us a Republican ballot as if it were the only option.

I just don’t love the framing of ‘we should set aside our differences & fight the real enemy’ kumbaya shit because sure I would love to but also many of the people asking us to set aside our differences also say that we are losing elections because trans people advocate for their rights too loudly.

We must shed light on the torture at CECOT, but also this: "Plaintiff Abrego Garcia continuously informed officials that he possessed legal permission to remain and work in the [US] until 2029 and had been granted withholding of removal." We're beset with unlawful state actors at every last level.

We kept being told that journalism was a bulwark against fascism, a "fourth estate". This is the liberal frame for perceiving the industry's worth. But the reality is the polar opposite: fascism has been allowed to thrive, and could not have done so, without journalism.

The owner of Twitter sends out 100 right wing propaganda tweets every single day and the algorithm is set up so that every single person on Twitter has to see every single one of these tweets. Now here’s another piece about Blue Sky’s ideological diversity problem.
