I mean, the thing to keep in mind here is that Democrats think Trump tanking the economy with the tariffs would help them in the midterms.

Hey let's all read this one! Like, right now! Not kidding, do it!

hesitant to promote my "old work" but yes if you've read the New Yorker piece and wanna get to the bottom of the Yarvin bullshit - this video is pretty good!

I have been listening to this on loop for an hour plus now. the production is unreal and really taps into the best of contemporary jazz sounds. and @mike-eagle.bsky.social continues to be the most pathos filled human to hold a microphone and do raps with it.

Another edition of Bookmarks is live! This week features work from: @yanisvaroufakis.bsky.social @annieabrams.bsky.social @dan-sinnamon.bsky.social @hotelbarpodcast.bsky.social @michaelburns.bsky.social #literacies #academicsky #edusky open.substack.com/pub/trevoral...

violence bad, etc etc etc but someone some throw hands at Yarvin

to all the people in the streets wondering . . . yes, I will likely talk about the Yarvin article on Wednesdays stream. but not for that long b/c there isn't much more to say about this absolute intellectual chode.

I've heard from some cool designer so far, but if there are any experienced YouTube thumbnail designers out there interested in getting paid to make thumbs for a channel secretly using Marxism to corrupt the youth . . . holler at me.

critiquing leftist content creators for doing sponsorships is just really boring. if the litmus test is "if your politics are good you must be poor" then I don't think I really want to be a part of your movement.

someone with a cool beard made a video about how my video is terrible. i wish folks who disagreed with me would make shorter videos so that i could watch them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=WiHS...

my newest video is about how if everyone just read and/or understood Frederic Jameson, we could stop having silly debates about what is and isn't "postmodern philosophy." youtu.be/_4k26xGx1zI

👏 Normalize using Jameson to anchor any cultural analysis of postmodernism 👏* *Probably a weird thing to use clappy hands for, but watch Burns cook (and then read Jameson yourself) and you’ll get it.

a little stream edit clip from our discussion of Peterson on Jubilee from stream (until they hit us with the copyright infringement because they're cops.) youtu.be/2q2WxY5N37A

Come learn about postmodernism (the cultural logic of late stage capitalism) with me, thanks to @michaelburns.bsky.social youtu.be/_4k26xGx1zI?...

fyi the new Foxwarren album absolutely shreds.

almost a week later and still considering doing this

If you want videos without ads and extra content while helping me build a channel that's not dependent on ads and algorithm chasing, consider joining my patreon. i'm going to be launching some fun new stuff soon and you'll get to help decide what that looks like. www.patreon.com/MichaelBurns...

radiohead is one of the best bands ever, and also, thom yorke's statement on gaza is the most "both sides" cowardly bullshit i've ever read.
