2/2 “Warning shots” don’t justify shooting starving people. Bloodless journalism about bloody murder. The leadership at this newspaper should be ashamed. #Gaza

I’ll still hear what’s important to know via friends and carefully selected sources I trust. First stage of resistance is to care for your mental and emotional health. Getting riled up every day is a distraction. It won’t help me focus on helping. Guard the gates of your senses… #resist

So far (one day!) Bluesky seems a more cultured place? In that there’s more fine-grained control over what we read and follow. Which seems indispensable. I’m fond of Threads too, though anything outside the Meta Industrial Complex seems suddenly preferable!

As with all great essayists, dreamers, writers, artists, philosophers or friends, what Zadie Smith sets out here might actually make me change my mind and, possibly, my life. She’s that good. We’re lucky to have her. We’ll all need to decide how and where to stand through the next decades.🙏 #resist

We need more examinations of our own collusion with authoritarianism; of how it’s a relief in some conditions not to fight to be free, to give up on that dream. And of the simple ways we might not just #resist the tech bros and the algorithms that keep us in check; but how we might overcome them.
