Today I discovered that people have been uploading old stock photo CD-ROMs to the Internet Archive and now I'm obsessed with the mid-'90s business-core aesthetic.

That ICE agents are indeed “real people with real families” makes it all the more horrific. these goons are “real people” that make a life- one with family barbecues, kids’ dance recitals, etc.-out of snatching “real people with real families” from their homes as their loved ones cry out for them.

I really appreciate that the (growing?) sentiment towards the administration's aggression is like yeah this is bad and dangerous and also it is mockable and these fascist cowards can eat my ass

Absolutely STUNNED that Lorna Simpson says my work partly inspired a work of art 😮 “It was a reproduction of a collage from a series called “Sky Pinups,” partially inspired by Zora’s gift of a book called “The Disordered Cosmos,” by the physicist and Black feminist writer Chanda Prescod-Weinstein.”

Impossible to communicate to people that once you decide that a group more vulnerable than you can be sacrificed in the name of your own safety or interests that you have already entered into an tacit agreement that you can also be sacrificed in the interests of a group less vulnerable than you.

I have a lot to say about the resurgent young men / masculinity discourse but for now will confine myself to: I wish I knew how to convince teenage boys/young men is how little of the world actually requires or even invites the hypermisogynist "tough guy" aesthetic

I am actually fascinated w/ whatever is going on politically and sociologically among people who have pfps or backgrounds on their accounts that say ‘blm’ and variations of hashtag resist and resistance who are still spending SO much hostile energy online lecturing people about defund demands

I'd say more precisely that we have people going all in on the idea that self-discipline is about having what it takes to dunk your head in a bowl of ice water every morning rather than having what it takes to treat someone different from you like a human being.

What people really don’t want to hear is that shaming people who brag about writing emails with AI would be just fine. Admirable in fact. Norms can sometimes do what law won’t.

As an inherently curious person, I find that most people are not curious about the people they say they love… which is extremely odd. If I love someone, I’m curious about them. I ask questions. I conceive solutions. I trial and error. I am genuinely curious about the ways I can be of service.

I had to tell a naturalized citizen that this administration is deporting naturalized citizens. Had to pull it up on my phone to prove it. Anyway, liberal democracy cannot survive this amount of media fragmentation. In the end, a stupid app will have broken y’all’s grand experiment.

Let me just say again - so grateful to all of the scholars, writers, artists, and activists who have taught many of us in the social media space to read, reflect, engage, act, and know what we're seeing, experiencing, and offering ways for us to move, act, think, deliberate, and survive this moment.

You as a single individual DO NOT have to "keep up" with ALL of the information of every single thing happening across the entire world daily. You don't because it's impossible. Focus on a couple of things and act on those things. Don't feel ashamed that you are doing that.

The only reason this hasn’t also been treated like an alarming constitutional crisis concerning free speech is because people in positions of influence in the media, business, and politics at least tacitly agree with the aims of this movement.

Hopefully clear to folks by now that the online media asymmetry isn't tenable. Still wondering how it came about in the first place, though. We're not exactly short of underemployed left-leaning people in the entertainment industry!
