"Phantom View" is about a son caretaking for his father, and discovering a blurry person in all their family photos that he has no memory of. The same figure is in all his dad's paintings--and the figure may be in the house with them right now.

"But we are supposed to honor and respect a liar because… civility.
Yet, when it comes to dead black bodies, there are no calls for reverence and dignity."

@michaelharriot.bsky.social wrote this two years before George Floyd was murdered on camera by police. It seems even more appropriate now. www.theroot.com/civility-is-...
Civility is for White People
We should not speak ill of the dead.Even if the truth is unsavory, the dead deserve our condolences and respect. We must be civil. Especially if they are

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

Ursula Le Guin: “The shift from denial of injustice to recognition of injustice can’t be unmade.... Once you see the injustice, you can never again in good faith deny the oppression and defend the oppressor. What was loyalty is now betrayal. From now on, if you don’t resist, you collude.”

Feeling so much safer now that 38 men have self-reported that the manosphere isn't dangerous *sarcasm*. Not all research is ethical or reliable, and there needs to be higher standards for research which potentially can impact vulnerable communities through shaping legislation

Truly awful reporting here by The Guardian. The fact that 38 men in the manosphere thought that it was just banter and open debate shouldn't be reported as 'overblown fears'
