Maybe we (freaks) gotta rethink letting fascist methods into how we regulate our creative spaces 🤔

Unfortunately predictable

We desperately need to get away from arguments for the humanities that elevate them because of what they do for technology. The humanities should not be understood as service disciplines. They are an extension of us, and that is enough.

Volunteers installed 50 pairs of "ghost shoes" in locations across the Twin Cities, marking where federal agents detained, shot, killed or committed violent acts against people. They’ll start on other locations in Minnesota in July.

Often when people are dazzled by art, they are really dazzled by the amount of labor that has resulted in that particular object. It is a standard move of the powerful to command labor and display the result, without acknowledging particular laborers.

Dear Jewish friends arguing with literal Nazis online about antisemitism, They're not gonna be persuaded by facts but maybe some of our friends and allies could be? I hope? We can expect better of them. Dear everybody else, I see more Nazi content in a day than I used to see in several weeks.

#notacartoonist but it's still an honor come see me 🪱🪱🪱

As someone who feels invisible and forgettable, I can't describe how good it feels to be acknowledged. I picked up a book from a coffee shop and the guy remembered that I had done it before.

The only way to end the sexual abuse of children who are detained and incarcerated is to stop detaining and incarcerating children. There are no "reforms" that end sexual abuse inside.

People talk about “redemption” and “comebacks” for men who never faced real material consequences or, more importantly, actually stopped harming other people in the first place

ICYMI two bills have been introduced in the Minnesota state legislature to address and seek to end Qualified Immunity. One that creates a cause of action for citizens whose rights have been violated by gvmt employees. Rs are also moving a bill to hold civil employees liable for violations
