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

an article about a university president forcing faculty to pretend trans people don’t exist that also pretends trans people don’t exist in a newspaper that spent years publishing hundreds of articles by ignorant cis people musing about what they suppose trans people are or should be allowed to do

it turns out that the reformist project to aspire into the citizen subjectivity of an implicitly heterosexual-masculinist liberal egalitarianism, i.e. the brotherhood, cannot exist without perpetual border-keeping, in particular [trans]misogyny

im posting these screenshots right now in light of everything going on, but especially in light of wes streeting advocating "third spaces for trans women" and (cynically, misogynistically, homophobically) justifying it through appeals to "women's rights/spaces" and "him being a gay man"

Incredible. Italy brought to a standstill as Italians descend to the streets to protest for Gaza. No business as usual. Schools closed. Businesses closed. Shameful on the rest of us. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

A remarkable essay on, among other things, the personal toll of working at the consent factory. bidoun.org/articles/hou...

I want to do a performance that conveys what it was like when one would gestate a child or love a sibling and then you would watch them die of diphtheria, pertussis, measles, polio, smallpox, rheumatic fever and then it would happen to another and another and that was called having a normal life

Daniel Raab from Chicago sniped one unarmed civilian and then his brother as he tried to retrieve the body: “It’s hard for me to understand why he [did that] and ... doesn’t interest me ... I mean, what was so important about that corpse?” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Protesters shouted “shame” and "Gestapo,” and applauded as agents in the ICE-led action drove a Border Patrol SUV away on four flat tires, which had been slashed: https://bit.ly/4mdySuu

There is no bottom

Hello modest number of followers: there is movement toward translating Feminism Against Cisness into Spanish and ppl have expressed enthusiasm abt translating The New Woman. If anyone knows of any presses or translators who might be into it please dm.

The future!!!!!!!!

I’ve been thinking a lot over the past three years about the fetishization of literary quality and how abolished it is by the aesthetic diversity of people who’ve stood tall against genocide. It’s a little window into the future where we can all love our weird things (the writing and the reading)

every scholarly organization, honestly every organ of public and intellectual life, has split itself rather than tell the truth, which feels like an essential reality about liberalism

It's a Rothko night

I love demos of this scale. I love demos that are a practice of everyday life. I want to memorialize acts like this, generalize them, make them just what we’re doing all the time.

VICTORY: Our clients UMD SJP will receive a $100,000 settlement from the University of Maryland — the highest financial penalty likely ever imposed on a US university for violating pro-Palestinian students’ free speech rights, to our knowledge. palestinelegal.org/news/umd-set...

“Mississippi Masala asks: What might it mean to forge a politics explicitly based on an investment in the places where we are, rather than in an imagined ideal of the places from which we came?” Good day to reread this lovely essay by @durba.bsky.social www.publicbooks.org/mississippi-...

I think it’s important for Americans to understand that the current famine in Gaza is a joint US-Israeli production. We are not “failing to stop this”. We did this. www.bbc.com/news/article...

“Israel is pursuing an extensive PR effort to remove itself from blame for the starvation and killing of Palestinian civilians in Gaza in the face of overwhelming evidence that it is responsible.” Forceful and necessary pushback to Israeli propaganda by @peterbeaumont.bsky.social

“From inside Nasser hospital, I am telling you: this is deliberate. This is preventable. And this must stop now.”
