The most ordinary man imaginable came to my home state to tell me to ‘get out of America’ while he & Absent Ashley enjoyed the comfort of buildings my ancestors helped build. Imagine standing on the shoulders of the ppl who built this country & then telling their descendants they don’t belong here/2

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers
Say it with
Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase
Pointing hands
(They're called manicules!)
Don't be left behind
Broadsheets are the future

folding iphone feels like what happens when product design is driven by tech innovation, and so ends up leaving users asking "ok but why". But iphone and airpods are examples of what happens when tech innovation is *driven by* rather than *driving* product design

Grown ass people telling me that they want schools teaching AI so kids "know how to use it..." These tools are as smart or as stupid as your prompts. Good prompts require broadly educated people, not "AI-educated people." Instead, study economics of AI & its impact on economics, power, culture.

At one point in my relative youth, I had a goal of being the historian who made films correct because I believed, so earnestly, that they just didn’t KNOW. I understand now source material is considered incidental.

I’m not fond of sports metaphors. “Winners” & “losers” is Trump talk. We can defeat fascism, but “winning” talk erases the deep damage already done. Repairing what we can won’t take years but far longer. And some of it, especially around climate, is at best scar tissue.

A lot of this is also rooted in the fact that left wing men would rather try to win back white working class men than build a coalition with white women with college degrees (who are decidedly economically progressive) and Black voters (older ones are conservative. Younger ones are more left-wing)

I agree with all the takes about an attack on the humanities being an attack on critical thinking, &c. It’s also about joy, though. ‘Why bother studying that’ is always also a sneer at — why do you think you should get to do something you enjoy? Grow up and be miserable all the time!

Yes! The events industry is a mighty coalition of artists & creatives, plus a specific type of middle-aged woman who IRL manages family schedules, play groups, and all things specific to care while giving every hotel contract and catering bill a close read. They want no part of this shit.

Every time someone states what ought to be, people rush to the mentions to explain that it won't happen, and now I am talking to those people, and I want to be very clear: YOU are the reason it won't happen. Every time you say that you are taking energy away from "should" and reinforcing "is."

When Barack Obama and Kamala Harris were asked if they thought America was a racist country, that was a humiliation ritual. That was white power structures mocking them, and us, because they know the answer to that question and they're also the reason answering honestly is political suicide.

'Emotional behavioral disorder' gets slapped on Black and Brown students to keep them out of mainstream classrooms while white students have learning disabilities and get integrated education, a divide that entrenches systemic disparities—and deprives Black and Brown students of their future.

Why emotional disturbance, a special ed category, is a double-edged sword for students

Every school has problem students, but some are labeled emotionally disturbed (ED) and taught separately from others.

Civilization is beyond the things that facilitate energy use (power plants) or enable commerce (bridges). Civilization is art, culture, tradition, community. These are resilient and at the same time precious. That this president relishes in the idea of destroying them is its own sickness.
