Everyone should read this. I had no idea about this law and how much harm it does.

All, most of you know by now what happened to me in February.
I've written an essay about this for @harpersbazaar.uol.com.br.web.brid.gy, and I hope you'll give it a read:

So recently I had to postpone my exhibition opening because an SUV decided I don’t deserve two wholly functional legs. (I mean just greedy of me really). However, crutches and all we’ve scheduled new dates. Exhibition is in Woodstock, Cape Town. Poster and evidence of persecution by SUV attached.

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

An asteroid has become the most likely sizable space rock ever forecast to impact planet Earth, astronomers said. Designated 2024 YR4, it is expected to make a close pass of Earth in 2032. The danger remains low, but experts are estimating the damage that could be done. nyti.ms/4i4sZ11

Hospitals are mostly boring with short bursts of frenetic and chaotic absurdity. Also I feel like a disgusting Petri dish of bruise, sweat and mild nausea.
But otherwise everything’s fantastic 👍😁

And the first people rounded up in Germany by the German establishment — before the Nazis were even in charge — were Romani
Meanwhile they committed genocide against the Herero and Nama peoples in Southern Africa

The first library burned was at an institute for sex research. Some of the first people killed were disabled. We’re in this together, we’re all targets.
It is *very* important to understand that Jews were never the only target of the 1930s Nazis and they are not the only targets of today’s Nazis. A Nazi salute is not only antisemitic. It is also racist, ableist, and queerphobic.
