Very tired of seeing women wearing masks and their male partners not wearing masks!! Hoping some artist of Bluesky will take this germ of an idea and run with it to create stickers, flyers, zines, whatever. #Covid

it makes me feel crazy that people avoid vaccines ostensibly to avoid disability when the diseases those vaccines prevent were a major cause of disability

Things are coming apart quickly, so a word to white folk: you’re going to have to get used to property damage if you want to survive. Getting upset protesters set an empty Target on fire & making THAT & not police murder the focus is part of how we got here.

Regardless of who is in office, fascism is the reality in prisons. (Read George Jackson) Prisoner resistance is also a site of radical possibility. (Read Orisanmi Burton) If we don’t support prisoners, we don’t have a shot at liberation

When folks ask what successful #DiamondOpenAccess can look like, I always point to Latin America and it's 25+ yr history of institutionally sponsored, scholar led #openaccess (which is increasingly threatened by the commercialization of academic publishing). Kudos to @scielo.org Redalyc AmeliCA

I’ve never seen or heard so much discussion in legacy media of the west’s rapacious demand for rare earth minerals. And that discussion is not being framed well—at all. Just increasingly blunt apologia for imperialism.

Work in progress from our gang…Covid acquired in hospital is about 10% more likely to kill you than Covid for which you’re hospitalized. Makes sense…people hospitalized with other illnesses have enough going on. Giving them Covid on top of that is deadly.

UCLA spent $12.3 million to suppress pro-Palestine protests, resulting in over 200 arrests and withheld degrees. All this to silence students standing against genocide.

Walter Rodney's ambitious masterwork of political economy, How Europe Underdeveloped Africa is part of our Black History Month sale. Rodney makes the unflinching case that African maldevelopment is not a natural feature, but a direct product of imperial extraction.

Shelves for young adult books in Livingston Parish, Louisiana, are empty. That's because the librarians have to read 30,000 books to check for "explicit content." (No such thing exists.) (This is a TREMENDOUS waste of taxpayer dollars). www.nola.com/news/livings...

I really need everyone to stop thinking in terms of laws and procedures and start thinking in terms of power and balance of forces. Like, yes, they intend to instruct the military to repress the people. They always did. The moves they're making are increasing the likelihood of army refusal

I saw guidance saying "mask up if you're somewhere where people don't have a choice about being there... pharmacies, hospitals, etc" I hate to break it, but... baristas, janitors, customer service reps, retail workers, &t... none of them have a choice about being at work either.
