Dorothy B. Porter changed libraries 💜 The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization. Enter Dorothy B. Porter 🧵

Really enjoyed writing about @pollyrowena.bsky.social's 'Some of Us just Fall: On Nature and Not Getting Better' (2023) & how nature writing can call for feminist disability justice for @the-polyphony.bsky.social. Big thanks to the editors for facilitating conversations like this 🌿

Critical thread. ⬇️ A key finding of their research: “Media indoctrination and civil liberties repression are the most predictive of autocratic survival.”

When I lived in LA I saw a lot of Q&As with Lynch actors and almost every single one could do an amazing impression of Lynch and the notes that he gave as a director. He was a treasure.

Indeed! This narrative of 'first this, that and the other' reduces women to novelty status and claims filmmaking as a male endeavour - what rubbish!

Can anyone recommend any really good writing on the aesthetics/appreciation of the post-industrial landscape, particularly (though not necessarily confined to) the UK? @illuminations.bsky.social - I feel like this might be something you could help with? New field for me - would like some guidance!

Good way of spending a Saturday lunchtime - listening to @vjctorianist.bsky.social talk about Chartist newspapers and remembering the much missed Malcolm Chase

“I don't especially like the way I look sometimes. But I never met a man since I was fourteen that didn't want to give me an argument about it.” Last #Noirvember post So many noir quotes feat guys calling women trouble or dynamite. I wanted to hear from the gals abt their own thoughts & desires.
