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.

Almost 10% of the entire Canadian electorate voted on the VERY FIRST DAY of advance polls because we’ve spent the last 3 months watching what happens when you elect a populist windbag who vilifies journalists and shits all over people’s fundamental rights. Thanks America. You really did us a solid.

Feels like a very good four years to hang out in archives, unearthing every previously successful leftist media activist strategy from the past 100 years, and then writing about it.

NYU canceled a planned speech by the former president of Doctors Without Borders because she planned to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and cuts to US AID. This is what actual campus censorship looks like.

It's not an exaggeration to say that the Trump/Musk regime has figured out a way to pull off a global holocaust without invading a single country or dropping a single bomb. When you see it as intentional and not as the unfortunate byproduct of cutting government waste it's very clarifying.

I have work to get to today. Before heading offline, I want to share again that we made a workbook for Let This Radicalize You and if you look on pp. 100-109, you will find a list of countless organizing resources: books, articles, manuals, podcasts etc... It's all there to use.

The White House is posting literal fascist video of the deportations with gleeful comments from the official account. You are not going crazy they are Nazis and they are dancing at the the opportunity to murder anyone they want with impunity they are posting the cattle cars for clicks.

I just…have my suspicions about the revolutionary capacity of a left-wing population who abandoned disabled and high-risk people at the drop of a hat for an assurance of their own normality. But it’s not to late to fix that particular choice (except for all the dead and disabled people who can’t)

No fights are the wrong fight to pick. Pick every fight. Fight these fascist fuckers every time about everything. Fight them even when they aren't fighting. If they run away, chase them and keep fighting them until they beg to stop and then fight even harder.

The quickest take is that BC's rush to stand up to Trump by embracing the same rapacious extractivism the conservatives do makes no sense. The more detailed analysis is this, from @thetyee.ca's @amandafollett.bsky.social: thetyee.ca/News/2025/02...

Food for thought. If they feared violence, they would have banned guns day one. Instead, they are banning books. They are erasing data and records. It is ideas and knowledge that truly scare a fascist and that is their weakness.

Canned Tuna: want me to start? maybe it'll cost more in Canada, maybe it won't. Most canned tuna currently sold here is caught & processed very, very, far away, in southeast Asia in fact. Maybe we should be paying a lot more for it than we currently are? Have a listen to this:

It's ok to make bad art. It's actually ok. It may mean you're not the kind of person that art is a marketable skill for, you just make art because making art is cool & fun. That's much better than using AI for art. Just make bad art.

This Cybertruck did not crash. It made a heartfelt and perhaps ill-advised gesture that, in the moment, might have been misinterpreted as a crash, but we should not rush to judgement.

Yup, @jamellebouie.net has this exactly right. What these guys are celebrating/pursuing/yearning for is not masculine energy, it's adolescent energy. Drinking Red Bull, crushing Call of Duty, refusing to clean your room. It is indescribably pathetic. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/18/o...
