Bitch, Asheville is a blue college town and the county has gone blue for decades. I am so sick of this “if I pretend disasters only happen to red areas, it means I’m safe because I’m properly on the left!” No. You’re not safe. That’s why we save everybody.

Hundreds of residents signed up for FEMA buyouts after Hurricane Helene. Not one has been approved.

More than a year after applying for a federal buyout, many North Carolina homeowners have heard almost nothing definitive.

Whoops, I forgot to add the last slide: the José Esteban Muñoz epigraph that opens the anthology and sets the tone for the pieces inside 🖤
![Amplitudes: Stories of Queer and Trans Futurity
"The future is queerness's domain. [...]
Some will say that all we have are the pleasures of this moment, but we must never settle for that minimal transport; we must dream and enact new and better pleasures, other ways of being in the world, and ultimately new worlds.
Queerness is a longing that propels us onward, beyond romances of the negative and toiling in the present. Queerness is that thing that lets us feel that this world is not enough, that indeed something is missing."

One thing I liked about METAL FROM HEAVEN was referring to the fantasy communism as Hereafterism, really got at the ongoing work of societal transformation, the labor that persists generation upon generation, and the need to defend the good and ephemeral.
I think the word communism needs to be phased out, the reputation is keeping us from appealing to liberal-minded workers and harming the movement over all. I suggest we rebrand to “Communism 2: Revelation”

Quick lil #MayDay stack for y'all! Thinking about work, about the alienation and transformation of work, of utopian principles and the vital spirit of revolution, about the possibilities of other worlds and other ways of being: principled, flawed, necessary, insistent.

Israel murders four more journalists this morning in a strike on Gaza's Nasser hospital.
Presumably Israel will tell us that Maryam Abu Daqqa was a Hamas commander too.
