“they want us isolated because it's easier to sell us shit…Us arguing about that is a design decision…We could be lonely together, but instead we’re arguing about who is loneliest.”

Lawrence, KS. Today at the ECM Community Center! Join us Saturday, November 22nd at 4pm for a special presentation about radical publishing and the unique community bonds that can be forged through a love of history and a devotion to physical media. *Tons of radical books for sale during the event!*

UK IMPORT BACK IN STOCK! Limited quantities, and these always go FAST! These poems move from family gatherings to hospital corridors, from blind veterans' gardens to walk-in freezers, examining how memory and loss shape our understanding of both personal and collective history.

As a bookstore that sells pamphlets and magazines, the criminalization of such materials feels pretty close to home. So let's take a closer look at the materials the federal government is claiming tie readers to "antifa terrorism." We can pick out six titles in these grainy photos. 1/

"One of our biggest concerns is that this decision isn't actually about what's best for our children's education," @laneyhawes.bsky.social said. "It is part of a political movement. It's part of an agenda." #BookBans #FreedomToRead @txfreedomread.bsky.social cbsaustin.com/news/local/s...

The ECM Community Center is proud and honored to host events like tonight's vigil for the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Thank you to everyone who joined us. And thank you to @lawrencekstimes.com for their ongoing coverage of our community events. 🖤

Dear Editors — If you’re considering publishing an article about issues related to transgender people, then perhaps you should consider assigning that article to a transgender journalist. Don’t have any transgender journalists in your newsroom? @transjournalists.org has several valuable resources:

London. Go see my head talk tonight about @justinpearson.bsky.social and San Diego and our little scene.

Advice from a Literature teacher and resister: read your history, but don’t forget your literature. Resistance is woven through the words of abolitionism and feminism and anti-fascism. Read the history and the literature.

Those narrow defeats are scary, because they mean the bill can return in a short amount of time with a bridged gap. Please follow @propotp.bsky.social - Operation 45 was supposed to be a one-off, so I guess Operation 47 needs to start…

Me being silly on another app, but I finished this book last night and really enjoyed it. @adamgnade.bsky.social brings a reality and vitality to his work, perhaps you might also enjoy that kind of thing. I walked home listening to Hymn California, because I needed more of that voice.

Heads up, Cardiff! Show some love to Bread & Roses author Joshua Jones, Sunday night at Still Hands Tattoo Shop!

Hey, hey, Bristol! Come see Bread & Roses author Andrew Hykel Mears this Sunday at Cloak!

New postcards of Your Friends Will Carry You Home featuring the great cover art by the great Valeska Hykel. Free with orders. Get the book itself at the link in my bio. Also, follow my publisher @breadrosespress.bsky.social I don't think Three One G is on here yet.

My piece about the need to rethink our approach to direct action and protest under a second Trump administration, reprinted in @truthout.bsky.social.
