"Find your political home" remains, for me at least, the single best guiding star in times of crisis and chaos.

Individuals can doomscroll and post and have big feelings; groups can take meaningful action. Maybe it's an activist org, union, student group, career, collective/crew, etc (1/3)

we used to be a country. a proper country.

uncharacteristically packing less than 12 hours before i leave on this trip, wish me luck

a page of brandon sanderson’s tress of the emerald sea. it reads, “I love memories. They are our ballads, our personal foundation myths. But I must acknowledge that memory can be cruel if left unchallenged. Memory is often our only connection to who we used to be. Memories are fossils, the bones left by dead versions of ourselves. More potently, our minds are a hungry audience, craving only the peaks and valleys of experience. The bland erodes, leaving behind the distinctive bits to be remembered again and again. Painful or passionate, surreal or sublime, we cherish those little rocks of peak experience, polishing them with the ever-smoothing touch of recycled proxy living. In so doing—like pagans praying to a sculpted mud figure-we make of our memories the gods which judge our current lives. I love this. Memory may not be the heart of what makes us human, but it's at least a vital organ. Nevertheless, we must take care not to let the bliss of the present fade when compared to supposedly better days. We're happy, sure, but were we more happy then? If we let it, memory can make shadows of the now, as nothing can match the buttressed legends of our past. I think about this a great deal, for it is my job to sell legends. Package them, commodify them. For a small price, I'll let you share my memories—which I solemnly promise are real, or will be as long as you agree not to cut them too deeply.

litfic isn’t the only genre worth reading (from brandon sanderson’s tress of the emerald sea)

SCOTUS said we had to file separate complaints in separate courts and we said “okay see you in EVERY court.”

i may be unserious, hysterical and woke, but my strategy of “taking trump seriously no matter how insane he sounds” has paid more analytical dividends than the alternatives

I know way too much about this song and now @acfacci.bsky.social does too

MUST-WATCH: This is the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil from the perspective of his wife, who is 8 months pregnant.

This is federal agents in plain clothes dragging a man from his home as punishment for his speech.

“Emails that have since been made public quite clearly show that Littlejohn, in fact, asked the school to use they/them pronouns for their non-binary child. Littlejohn … gave approval to let their child and their teachers lead on appropriate school protocols.”

i love d20 for so many reasons, but perhaps most of all because of how its powerful creative storytelling introduces various aspects of leftist political thought. i’ll always be in awe of how the d20 writers, and ofc @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social himself, make room for praxis at the table.
