readin a book

many people are saying you should check out www.lazyandentitled.org

"I was absolutely blown away by this book. These poems are vulnerable, funny, irreverent, surprising...these poems are like sitting at the lunch table with the funniest kid in school and realizing how profoundly sad they are." Much love to @thecorlew.bsky.social for reviewing Kiik's book!

The quote that stood out to me the most from Lolita was always this direct address to the reader: "Imagine me; I shall not exist if you do not imagine me; try to discern the doe in me, trembling in the forest of my own iniquity"

The entire purpose of Lolita as a novel is that it's linguistic sleight of hand to goad the reader into sympathizing with an evil monster. Lots of people fall for that trap, but I wouldn't expect the fucking Powell M. Cabot Professor of American Literature at Harvard University to be one of them.

It’s too bad that those of us on the research and academic side who’ve been correctly saying that the goal for the Republicans was global ethnic cleansing and mass murder have been getting smeared by liberals and others on this site as conspiracy theorists or doomers for pointing this out months ago

Right now it kind of feels like a wildfire just blazed through town and we are all standing in the wreckage—except without any B-roll of burned up trees to play. You don't even know how to make sense of it all because far too much still looks the same on the surface when it really shouldn't.

you can 10x all my investments by publishing my fuckin books

I had to sign up for a business website to source an article and now my email inbox is all about maxing my investments

You’ll never find a better distillation of how technology and capitalism fit together in the 21st century.

A+ chain of quote posts

more and more excited for ALIEN EARTH S2 then again maybe I’m just really high on Noah Hawley and the idea of rich people on an island with Xenomorphs and murderous tentacle eyeballs

It is so important that everyone document what is happening here in Chicago right now. Just like life in post Katrina New Orleans, too many bad guys are going to try and put all this heartbreak & resistance in a memory hole and make people forget.

if Animals As Leaders hired an Octobassist they would go from "band I sometimes enjoy" to "perfect band"

this has been building since before we knew what Epstein emailed like but I just don’t trust anyone who makes seven figures or more to tell me who’s smart

I’ve read surrealist poetry less inscrutable than this

I loved this essay

NEW PODCAST Chris flying solo this week, talking the ICE invasion of Chicago and reading some interviews with anarchists and organizers: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

NEW PODCAST I thought some readings from Gord Hill, Clifton Ariwakehte Nicholas, and a few Studs Terkel interviews with organizers would be useful to hear 🍎: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... Spotty: open.spotify.com/episode/4jlH...

These ICE guys are clowns, albeit very dangerous ones. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/11/i...

gonna be easy to support the Starbucks striking workers bc 1) the coffee sucks and 2) corporate already closed all the stores in my area that tried to unionize

hey dude just call on yr brother when you need a hand we all need somebody to lean on I just might have a problem that you’d understand

also v funny that the entitled dickhead who is way to full of himself in ALIEN EARTH looks like the The 1975 guy

amazing how by the last episode of ALIEN EARTH I am super cheering for the alien

re-upping for the night crowd, just in case ICE is on its way to your city

i'm so glad that each of the 615 included in this order will be able to return home to their families &/or communities. but the indiscriminate way they were kidnapped and *now have to pay for release* instead of getting money from the govt for lost wages, bills, & healing is a fucking injustice.

I just walked out of federal court where I pleaded NOT GUILTY to the charges against me. I will continue to stand up to authoritarianism and call this out for what it is: a political prosecution.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

solidarity to everyone who went to Federal Plaza to stand with the Broadview Six good on Sochi Lopez for calling out Pritzker the cops will not save us, assume that the courts won’t either we keep us safe

Little Village community organizer Chela Garcia starts the demo by calling out Chicago police for, she says, shielding federal agents as they attempted to detain a minor this weekend. "Every time police collaborate with ICE, they are not serving us. They are serving a racist agenda," she says.

A pretty bleak thing that GenAI is revealing is that a significant percentage of the population seems to have no interest in actually learning or doing anything. They want to ChatGPT their way out of hobbies, art making, everything... www.thecut.com/article/woul...

told yall there was an action today still got my green on for Cat

Bovino and many of his agents are headed to another city. Reports indicate that Charlotte and NOLA are upcoming targets. But there will still be ICE attacks in Chicago, as there were before, and we need to remain responsive. We also have a lot of deep prep work to do, bc they will be back in force.

In 1999, a woman named Jessica Gonzales sought and obtained an order of protection against her physically abusive husband ("AH"), who had repeatedly threatened to kill her and their three children. The order included language specifically limiting when and where AH was allowed to see the children.

Federal Plaza, 2:30 PM. See you there.
