“11 sperm whales huddled together at the surface, strangely still and taking occasional shallow dives. After about an hour, the animals seemed to start thrashing, and a plume of blood reddened the water. The researchers feared trouble, maybe a shark attack. But it was something else.” WHALE DOULAS!

You can't... repeal... a scientific finding. At that point it's just called lying about it.

i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.

When Mariame Kaba told us that hope is a discipline, I always understood that to mean "I am hopeful in so far as I do". I have never felt an unfounded optimism, but organizing for 20+ years has showed me that so much more is possible.

Part of it is, I know, that they are simply liars trying to whip up a mob, that they don't know or care what truth is, but part of it is that they live such grim, hateful, alienated lives that the idea of people helping each other in pursuit of social good is an existential threat to them

I don’t mock anybody for looking after their health - you do what you have to do. But I don’t agree with the lectures to ‘be kind to yourself’ & ‘not watch the video.’ If possible you do need to see what the state does in your name, with your money, to people you know & who look like you.

It's -20 in Minneapolis and organizers are in the streets before dawn getting ready for actions related to the general strike. They've had locals training out-of-town volunteers on how to prepare for and endure the cold. AND IT IS WORKING. THE STRIKE IS HAPPENING. THE CITY IS DOING THE DAMN THING...

moved to Minneapolis with his family in 2022, little imagining the kind of U.S.A. he would be bringing his children into. Rich, sobering essay about how the world is changing under our feet.

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

It's funny that animated films for kids are considered such lowly fare by artistic establishments and mature adults when those same films are trusted to shape the moral values and personal ethics of entire generations.

you do have to do it in a couple of places but this tutorial makes it easy to go uncheck the boxes that otherwise lets Google's AI read all your shit. or move everything over to protonmail but moving everything over is a giant thing I know.
