It can be profoundly alienating to try and talk about what we’re going thru to people who aren’t experiencing it. I felt this during and after Minneapolis too. You talk about something you experienced and they go quiet, get really uncomfortable. And you start to think “I shouldn’t have said that”

If you have not lived around and under threat of such intense violence it can be hard to comprehend how pervasive that stress is, what it does to you. if you are not in Chicago but know people who are, take the time to talk with them, hear about their feelings and experiences

Day by day I think about the time I walked up to my apt in Chicago and heard my neighbors in a screaming argument: "ARE WE GONNA SETTLE THIS LIKE ADULTS? ARE WE GONNA SETTLE THIS WITH COMMUNITY CARE? .... YOU FUCKING CUNT!?"

One of Pittsburgh's official Sister Cities is Saitama, which of course is home to the Seibu Lions. The city with the world's biggest furry convention twinned with the city with the sexiest gay animal in all of sports. I just think that is wonderful

reading a 2001 hypertext novella with a janky flash emulator just makes sense
