Rape as a tool of political violence was the natural escalation point to allowing an adjudicated rapist to become President. I think I'll just start shrieking at the top of my lungs at anyone who tells me I'm overreacting from this point forward. No words, just the feral sound of unbridled rage.

Found the email I sent when I got accidentally added to the faculty listserv of an orthopedic surgery clinic and nobody would remove me so I sent this email to all faculty/staff/med students and they removed me almost immediately
Hello Bone Colleagues, 
I have invented a new type of ankle and I'm very excited to show it to you. Early raccoon trials suggest a 60% increase in scurrying speed and dramatic increases in fine motor banditry. I know we are not supposed to create super raccoons, but I think you'll change your mind and professional ethics when you see how cute they are. I believe we are on the cusp of a new era in advanced human scurrying because if medical science has taught me anything, it's that improvements in raccoons correspond 1:1 to improvements in humans.

Today I was invited to participate in an event at the Park Avenue Armory where artists and writers read manifestos, either ones they had written or those written by others. Here's what I wrote and read: As the great Madeline Kahn once sang: I am tired Tired of waking every day to the thrashing and bellowing of the massive unsatisfied beasts that presume to rule us.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, working at a desk. A brain next to her says, "We need to take breaks!"
The second panel zooms in on Sarah's face. She is annoyed. She says, "What if I don't listen to you?"
The third panel shows the brain smiling.
The fourth panel shows the brain reaching towards a lever. The brain says, "I'LL MAKE YOU."

Cover of “Chromophobia” by David Batchelor
IT IS, I BELIEVE, NO EXAGGERATION TO SAY THAT, IN THE WEST, SINCE ANTIQUITY, COLOUR HAS BEEN SYSTEMATICALLY MARGINALIZED, REVILED, DIMINISHED AND DEGRADED. GENERATIONS OF PHILOSOPHERS, ARTISTS, ART HISTORIANS AND CULTURAL THEORISTS OF ONE STRIPE OR ANOTHER HAVE KEPT THIS PREJUDICE ALIVE, WARM, FED AND GROOMED. AS WITH ALL PREJUDICES, ITS MANIFEST FORM, ITS LOATHING, MASKS A FEAR: A FEAR OF CONTAMINATION AND CORRUPTION BY SOMETHING THAT IS UNKNOWN OR APPEARS UNKNOWABLE. THIS LOATHING OF COLOUR, THIS FEAR OF CORRUPTION THROUGH COLOUR, NEEDS A NAME: CHROMOPHOBIA.

Believing in "the work doesn't help with housing or f"ood security. It doesn't pay for medical expenses. Yeah, we are all struggling. It's real. AND asking multiply marginalized people to do more labor for your org is not cool. Do better.

Want more representation from minorities on your project? Find ways to compensate them. "Believing in the work" is great, but coming in as an outsider, doing "the work," educating your peers, AND doing the emotional labor is hard. Compensate folks for the psychic damage they're going to take.

The CIA was establishing multiple horrifying dictatorships in the third world at that time. Those regimes perpetuated MASSIVE amounts of sexual violence against women and children. I tried looking into the history of human rights abuses in Brazil at the time and I had to stop. It was depraved.

I regret to inform you the Flock-powered police state will be queer-inclusive
A New Bedford, Massachusetts, police officer is under investigation after being accused of using a Flock Safety camera to track her ex-girlfriend’s movements, per the New Bedford Light.

In a signed affidavit, the ex-girlfriend, who is not named in media reports, said she began receiving “endless calls” from her ex-girlfriend Emily Pacheco, a New Bedford police officer, in April after the couple ended their two-year relationship.

“She then generated fake phone numbers to reach out to me, calling and texting,” the woman wrote, per the Light. “Showing up to my home unannounced and refuse[d] to leave when asked … saw me pull into my home while on duty, got out of her cruiser and refused to let me leave.”

The affidavit also includes allegations that Pacheco ran her license plate number through Flock’s system in order to follow her.

Per data obtained by the Light, Pacheco has been one of the top users of the Flock system in New Bedford this year. Pacheco most commonly input “traffic infraction” as her reason for using the tracking software. In April, the month that Pacheco broke up with her ex, she reportedly ran 18 searches. By May, that number ran up to 259, with 220 searches in June, per the Light.
