It's that time of year again when "motivational gurus" flood your feeds with posts asking "What did you achieve in 2025?" and preaching "financial literacy" as the "key" to 2026. As working class folks, especially Black or Brown, this messaging can feel like salt in a wound. Please ignore it. 🧵

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career
The University of Oklahoma has removed an instructor who was accused by a student of religious discrimination over a failing grade on a psychology paper in which she cited the Bible and argued that promoting a “belief in multiple genders” was “demonic.” https://cnn.it/4b6g3rd

#Deucember Day#19 Dennis Donnelly's grungy 1978 proto-slasher 'The Toolbox Murders' is kinda divided by a suspenseful and disturbing act one, and a heartbreaking psychodrama in two ~ and this fan thinks it all works, schizo as it is. Love the tacky L.A. apartment complex vibe too. @gcdb.bsky.social

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.
Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.
