Stevens to RFK Jr: "To top it off, Mr Secretary, I got a copy of HR-944. You know what it is? It's your impeachment articles, sir. You have abused your office, you have gutted America's public health! You should be ashamed."

"There's only one majority in this country and that's the working class." —Zohran Mamdani

Thought the insulated mind peaked with Descartes. Then someone showed me the CTMU. Turns out the final form is a universe that thinks itself into existence and calls itself God. Respectfully, no... My paper, Against the Insulated Mind: philpapers.org/rec/COSATI

"What existed before the Big Bang?" assumes objects come first. But relation is prior. Objects are what emerge when relation stabilizes. New paper on PhilArchive, reframing cosmology through relational ontology. 🔗 philpapers.org/rec/COSROA-4 #PhilSci #Cosmology #Philosophy

The Epstein files really show us that we've been underestimating how much men hate women and children.

In hashtags, it helps if each new word starts with a capital letter. Otherwise, sighted users could see a string of letters and not immediately know where one word ends and a new word begins. Capitalized words also help screen readers properly read out the hashtag.

Bondi will testify. We will get the files. Jeffrey Epstein's friends will be held accountable.

It is a profound irony when the nation under attack feels more empathy for the attacker's citizens than the attacking government itself.

Happy Tax Day, New York. We’re taxing the rich.

The Zohran effect…

The third essay in my Taylor Swift trilogy is live. Spurred by the open letter that circulated April 6, the one asking her to stay in pain so fans could keep finding her there. 🔗 bit.ly/4muI9A9

Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files. Never stop talking about the Epstein Files.

This is my favorite Artemis II photo.

A win like this would signal something bigger than Hungary. It would show that even deeply consolidated systems can fracture.

Current status of the Strait of Hormuz dispute

Yes I do like all your cats watching Artemis II.

They’ve been complicit this entire time. Let’s not pretend otherwise.

This has been bothering me more the more I run into it. Curious what others think. 🤔 #Substack #Media #Gatekeeping #DigitalCulture #PublicDiscourse

NASA's Artemis II splashdown is later today. The crew is staking their lives on the heat shield. Something has to take the force of reentry. In this case, it’s designed to. That’s care. I wrote about it: bit.ly/4cgdBxb

A ceasefire was announced. Six hours later, the deadliest strikes of the war. The problem isn’t confusion. The system is performing resolution. I wrote about what’s actually happening: bit.ly/41msnxy

Friendly reminder: rewriting the Constitution is not radical, it’s historical. A functioning U.S. democracy no longer exists. We nearly reconstituted after the Civil War. Other countries have done it. I wrote what that could look like: www.projectreconstitution.org

Today, Donald Trump said a “whole civilization could die tonight” in reference to Iran. That is not normal political language. The United States is not operating as a functioning democracy. Power is no longer meaningfully constrained. This is what democratic breakdown looks like. 🧵

Another press conference? With the military? Ahead of this supposed Tuesday deadline? I don’t think it’s really about the rescue, you guys.

I’ll be presenting at the Care Ethics Research Consortium this year. CERC is a leading space for care ethics and relational theory, so it feels meaningful to be in conversation there. Program just dropped: bit.ly/4veWTqX

I’ve been accepted to present my work at 4 academic conferences across disciplines this year, including Seoul and Dublin. I’m raising funds to make it possible to attend and present. Support or shares appreciated. gofund.me/f306ec80c

We all watched Congress stall for weeks on funding DHS, and then suddenly they moved. Nothing changed… so what actually forced them to act? 🔗 bit.ly/4uYHfzJ #politics #congress #power #delta #DHS

Congress shouldn’t be getting rich off the taxpayers’ dime. It’s time to: ❌ Ban stock trading in Congress ❌ Ban Congressmembers from sitting on corporate boards ✅ Pass my No Getting Rich in Congress Act

What if the Big Bang isn’t an origin, but a reconstitution event following relational collapse?

Why is this only happening now? It should have been done decades ago. They won't pass it, they'll never give up the money they make while in office.

The Illinois State Board of Elections website appears to be down the day before the primary. If you’re trying to check your ballot or polling place, try your local election authority (like @chicagoelection.bsky.social) instead. Not ideal timing. #IllinoisPrimary #ILPrimary #ChicagoVotes

2026 is shaping up to be a big year. Just added a fourth academic conference presentation to the list. 🎉

The ‘Board of Peace’ started World War 3 so fast.

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

None of us in the world are free under the American empire except a teeny tiny bit of white men who are sucking blood from everybody else according to tiers. If that clicks for you it affects how you move.

This reads like a Supreme Court justice calmly explaining to an impulsive toddler why rules exist.

Ending participation in the PhD Project is not a neutral choice. It removes real support systems that helped people who have long been shut out of academia find their way. 1/2

This is not insurgency or a Democratic Tea Party. It is accountability. Framing candidates who listen to their constituents as a problem is dominion logic protecting a hierarchy that is losing legitimacy. This is representation without permission. And that’s a problem for the Democratic elite.

If ice wasn’t terrorizing their communities they would not have to wear masks. Their police do not have to wear mask. If ice treated people respectfully and lawfully they would not have to hide their faces.

This is what institutional trust collapse looks like in real time.

An every day thought now

ICYMI 👇

Wild how responsibility just… evaporates when it’s inconvenient.

The DOJ is editing the #Epstein files in real time while telling us there's not enough to prosecute. Bezos is gutting the #WaPo newsroom while we argue about his motives. No one's connecting these. I did. Check it out! 👇

We founded our democracy on ownership and called it freedom. We glorified billionaires as its highest expression. Now one billionaire can gut a pillar of democracy, journalism, and it’s treated as his right. That’s dominion logic at work. #Democracy #Journalism #WashingtonPost #WaPo #Bezos

The Washington Post layoffs aren’t a media problem. They’re a care failure. Journalism is civic infrastructure, yet we keep forcing it to survive on market logic and billionaire whims. #Journalism #Democracy #Media #WaPo
