So I was listening to @toriamos.bsky.social's Precious Things and Daughter heard Tori going "fascist pants of every nice giiiiiiiiirl" at the end of that spectacular bridge. She now goes round the house going "giiiiiiiiirl". @suchmayer.bsky.social my job as a parent is now complete.

Trump is badly losing the war over ICE, not just on the streets, but also in the culture. As Bad Bunny shows, this has become a culture war unto itself. Trump-MAGA's initial hubris has been utterly deflated. I've got fresh data illustrating the point. 1/ (new piece) newrepublic.com/article/2062...

Trump Rages at Bad Bunny—and Accidentally Exposes a Big MAGA Weakness

MAGA’s hatred of the Super Bowl halftime performer reflects a hubris about what parts of the culture are “theirs.” But those assumptions are proving more wrong every day.

“Reading through the emails, it’s possible to see that Epstein himself coordinated pushback against #MeToo. Looking back, it seems obvious that sinking #MeToo also led to where we are now: a place where laws simply don’t apply if you have enough money and power. The same players are involved.”

As June Jordan said, “We are not powerless. We are indispensable despite all atrocities of state and corporate policy to the contrary... At a minimum we have the power to stop cooperating with our enemies. We have the power to stop the courtesies and to let the feelings be real.”

Don't be distracted by the chaos. Trump’s 2nd term agenda will be more calculated than his 1st. He's following the playbook of Hungary’s Viktor Orbán to crush democracy, silence dissent & entrench his own power. Those who lived it say there’s a window to act now. Here’s how we fight back. ⬇️

Reading about this luxury apartment building that's falling apart after only ten years because the developer wanted a pure white building, a color only achieved by weakening the concrete. LOL what a fucking living metaphor.

Wrote a bit about how finishing a book is simultaneously like staring at the ceiling and taking a leap into a future you don't quite believe in, via astral projection, Virginia Woolf & Helen Chadwick. Also a solution to the subject/object problem! Read "project" here 👇 www.somayer.net?na=view&id=5

Was a musician once, songwriter. Now old, homebound and hands don't work enough to play guitar. But that music therapy is needed. So with my laptop, a 25 key midi keyboard and some decent VST software I wrote, composed and recorded an album. Finished mastering tonight. It's a weird accomplishment.

So #thepowerfantasy issue 11 denouement effectively places two key players (Dev + Etienne) in (narrative) positions which poetically mirror each other. Very clever @kierongillen.bsky.social! And the artwork by Caspar Wijngaard is perfectly matched to the script! That countdown effect was golden.
