Today I finally got paid $1300 for some academic work I did in 2024 and 2025. Hurray for my union for fighting for years to get what the university owed us. And shame on the administration for making it this hard.

The Season 2 of X’Men ‘97 felt like speed running multiple train wrecks. Season 1 had a clear thesis, grappling with self-acceptance and the tensions between Xavier and Magneto’s ideological approaches.

What happens when leftists appropriate corporate lingo to meet the capitalists halfway? Are you ready to activate a “coordinated capacity freeze” and “strategic reset through unsolicited asset acquisition?” #PoliticalSatire #CorporateJargon

Perks of being an indy artist: needing promo pics for a gig and having to play BOTH the introspective model AND the photog who says, “undo another button, show some feet, and look at the camera like you mean it.” FREE show of original tunes at Waterfire Arts Center, Providence, Thu, 8/20, 6 pm.

Absolutely thrilled to hold a physical copy of Guiding Principles for Inclusive Design Values. My chapter, "On Design & Dialogue" (p. 104), dives into how conversations shape our practice and the intersection of design and democracy.

🇺🇸 I wrote a new song for the Fourth of July. 🎶 Happy birthday, America! At 250, it's long past time you got over your Founding Father daddy issues 🦅 How are you celebrating (or protesting) Independence Day?

🎶 “Everybody pick up a brick / Through thick and thin / Coming together is how we win...” Reworked this song for the piano to re-share the message in time to round out Pride Month. 🎹 What are other queer artists working on this month? 🌈

From Reclaim Rhode Island: feeling inspired by the progressive victories in NYC? Here in RI, we have working class champions too! ReclaimRI.org/canvass
Graphic from Reclaim Rhode Island on a blue background. Large text at the top reads, “FEELING LEFT OUT?” with four headshots underneath. Below, white text asks, “By HUGE progressive victories in NYC?” Large red-and-white text responds, “WE HAVE WORKING CLASS CHAMPIONS HERE, TOO!” Additional text reads, “Because every Rhode Islander deserves housing justice, quality healthcare, and a dignified life.” Six more candidate headshots appear near the bottom. At the bottom of the graphic, large text says, “VOLUNTEER!” followed by “ReclaimRI.org/canvass.” The words “Reclaim RI” repeat vertically along both sides of the image.

The heat and drought have been hard on the plants, but the rain has revived the garden, and the harvest continues. Here are some strawberries and red and golden raspberries that I picked today.

I made my first motion today as a first-time delegate representing Local 7902 at the UAW Constitutional Convention. We were debating the rules for the Convention, and I proposed an amendment to the rule banning audio & video recording of discussion & debate.

The New School announced that the program I've been teaching for ~10 years will close after the current students finish next year. I stumbled onto The New School's 1919 founding document. Reading it feels like a diagnosis of exactly what's happening there right now. medium.com/@leesean/the...

After receiving a string of professional rejections this year, I got two acceptance emails this week for artwork that I submitted. One is for a publication and the other is for a gallery. But now it’s like “oh, $h1t, I have to actually deliver.” 🙀

In 2024, a stranger emailed me about a book I never wrote. Real name, real publisher, fake book — a ChatGPT hallucination. I followed the glitch, down a rabbit hole of dead labor, lost auras, and the uncanny valley. I synthesized what I found into "Haunting Machines," a video essay. 🧵
