The book is "Loving Women: Being Lesbian in Unprivileged India" by Maya Sharma, pubbed in 2006, and it's slowly killing me.

Blessings to this sweet friend in the new year. Let this be the year we convince each other to divest from mass murder & universal immiseration and move toward a social organization in the image of this shockingly beautiful planet and the desperate protective regard we feel for those we love.

I loved this review and this novel

went to see Hustlers in Jersey City in 2019 and the way the entire packed cinema **lost it** at JLo's anti-Wall Street speech: "You see what they did to this country? They stole from everybody. And not one of these douchebags went to jail, not one."

I wrote about why a @wawog.bsky.social -led coalition is targeting the Opinion section of the New York Times with a boycott and strike, why I as a freelancer and former contributor am standing in the picket line with hundreds of others, & what it means to draw a line: www.newarab.com/opinion/no-o...

The Immigrant Law Center provides free legal services to low income immigrants in Minnesota. No small organization with little funding can fight an illegal federal military occupation. Collective support is of vital importance for those people who access these critical services www.ilcm.org

There are so many things I find striking here but I especially think it's important to note the implication that these Two-Spirit women knew each other, or at least knew OF each other. There's another source I remember where it is said Two-Spirit trans women regarded each other as sisters.

In 1889, one of the 5 batée on the Crow Reservation told a white physician the number of Two-Spirit trans women she knew of in nearby communities: "Flatheads, four; Nez Perces, two; Gras Ventres, six; Sioux, five; Shoshonis, one." The physician also mentions other communities with Two-Spirit people.

In the Harvard Law Review, @kredburn.bsky.social has a new piece explaining what happened in Skrmetti, and what it means for trans rights and sex equality more broadly.

Hello internet, poet Caitie Moore wrote a crystalline elegy following the pulse nightclub shooting that is scrubbed from the internet because the online publication folded. Looking ahead to the ten year anniversary in June it should be republished where a lot of people can read it forever

Note the class dynamics on display in both this and the Epstein story--these were wealthy men preying on girls made all the more vulnerable by their poverty

Class solidarity often looks like conspiracy

The idea that what people need is more proof rather than an honest reckoning, explanation and campaign around the already out there truths we all have access to is liberal propaganda

In our latest, we speak with the director of Trans Income Project about their work providing material support to trans people in Louisiana and how they’re trying to fill the gaps created by the federal government’s attacks on trans coverage under Medicaid soundcloud.com/deathpanel/a...

The stat that blows my mind is that Israel killed more civilians in the first week after October 7 than Hamas has killed since it was founded 40 years ago

Every tyrant dies the same: utterly alone, unloved, and unmourned

Antifa, short for Antifaschistische Aktion, was founded in 1932. It arose in response to the rapid growth of Hitler’s Nazi Party. Its goal was to defend the working class from fascist violence & oppose the rise of Nazism. They saw the fight vs. fascism as part of a broader struggle vs. capitalism.

I truly do adore how teaching at a university forces you to reread and rereread it is a discipline and a blessing
