my friend: look at the comments on this reel me: haha me: but, me: i wonder if this edit is a purposeful homage to @zefrank.bsky.social, who as one of the first youtubers doing straight-to-camera vlog, is an ancestor to influencers, & edited his videos so that he was never seen blinking journalist:

The Salvadoran president: “the only way out is in a coffin.” That's not just a statement about the likelihood of authorities deciding to release a person. It's also, intentionally or not, a statement about the conditions at CECOT. My words on the larger stakes, in the LA Times last month.

Contributor: Why 'monstrify'? Look at who benefits when few are considered fully human

The category of 'human' is shrinking as politicians, tech bros and right-wing pundits divide the world into two groups: You're a cis-het white man, or you're a monster.

tw: pet death; bluesky i’ve been away, my best friend, my sweet dog, became suddenly ill and it soon became clear we had to let him go. i am heartbroken but i know he lived a good and full life since being adopted by us at 7, and having just turned 14. so happy that he spent half his life with me 🩷

going to figure drawing sessions at lisbon drawing club has been fun, but i’m always too embarrassed to share my work with the other participants at the end as is customary. so as a baby step, here is some of it, on my kitchen table

It’s mostly white people who talk about echo chambers. Maybe you need the internet to meet people with different ideas but the rest of us do not. We know what the “other side” thinks because we deal with it every day! Everywhere! We’re fine. Carry on. Happy Saturday!

A first step I recommend or maybe two is finding communist or socialist groups in your area active on instagram or other social media and find out when their events are or events they are supporting are and connect with people

Menace is here. Menace protects us.

On the patio there’s a black compost tumbler and a grey “feral cat” condo. Sitting on the fence NOT the condo is The Menace. He’s a white fluffy cat with tabby splotches.

We are on ULP strike. We gave @nytimes.com management months of notice of our strike deadline, we made ourselves available around the clock, but the company has decided that our members aren’t worth enough to agree to a fair contract and stop committing unfair labor practices.

i don’t think this makes you weak nor that it’s wrong or not understandable to feel this way i do however think despair is a personal enemy that needs to be defeated. that doesn’t mean you need to always be optimistic. split the difference and let grim determination get you through imo
