My YouTube Recap said my most-watched channel (based on how many of their videos I watched) was a channel I never heard of and whose content I’m not interested in at all. Must have been channel surfing and fell asleep while it ran through all the videos! My type ended up being the Wonder Seeker.

a friend of mine in antifa told me that antifa's headquarters is SHEIN and if the company fell the whole network would fall

he also said that 80% of antifa's members are landlords and if you lower the cost of housing, you basically starve the network of its financing

"I don't care that he's dead." "He's not a hero." "He's a scumbag." "He shouldn't be celebrated." No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd. Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

Well-written and a timely repost.

Meant to share this earlier, but I was in HK at the time w/ a packed schedule. Anyway, thank you so much to @jennywcreative.bsky.social & @gblee.bsky.social for putting together this rich issue of Transtexte(e)s on "Reading & Writing Global Hong Kong." 🇭🇰

This explains why Costco is an industry leader!

He and Trump set an example for the next generations that it's ok to be racist, it’s ok to disrespect women, it’s ok to disregard climate change, among many other anti-human, self-serving matters. That is not the world I want my future children, fellow human beings, and animals to live in. 8/x

About a year ago I sent out a bunch of strawberry cards to raise money for Palestinian children’s health care. This genocidal atrocity has gone on for far too long. When will it end ?

Terrifying journalistic bullshit from @nypost, which posted an article claiming that the shooter was a “Chinese man” (thanks @paulayoo for grabbing), then replaced it with a version that the shooter was “identified only as a white male” shortly thereafter — WITHOUT flagging the correction.

The Pingtung Art Museum is the first municipal art museum established in Taiwan. Here you can enjoy art exhibitions as well as other events. In addition, there is a restored Martial Arts Hall from the Japanese era right next door. www.foreignersintaiwan.com/blog-3709633...

It’s only fascism if it’s exactly like 1930s Europe, otherwise it’s just sparkling far right, hyper-nationalist populism that deploys antisemitic & racist propaganda in defense of a nostalgic concept of the traditional patriarchal family supposedly besieged by culturally-foreign & degenerate others.
