I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

Opinion | Jamal Khashoggi: What the Arab world needs most is free expression
The Arab world needs a modern version of the old transnational media so citizens can be informed about global events.

I know everyone has their pet triggers with all this darkness flippantly being tossed at us, and for me, it's Jamal Khashoggi's murder. The president defending a royal against a journalist he had slaughtered with a chainsaw might be one of the more disgusting moments of the last ten years.

Billionaires Are Hoarding Power, Not Money. Also Money.
“The problem with billionaires isn’t that they’re hoarding money that would otherwise pay for a Scandinavian social utopia. It’s that their money has become a source of wildly distorted political power that allows a few men with extremist views to wreak havoc on the rest of us.”

what I wouldn't give for small creatives and producers to stop selling their companies and IP. we need a new generation of leaders in the creative industries, and that comes with the learning curves of bringing up your own stories.

friendly reminder that every time something happens™️ people get on beyonce's internet and say things with absolute certainty like "i have a bad feeling, things are gonna get worse now" but here's a secret:

that is called anxiety. those people do not have Special Inner Knowledge, they have anxiety.

This sounds wacky but it is backed up by science.

Realizing I may be fated to one day become the single old lady, no kids, with mysterious habits, who appears ghostlike from the fog in the background of a tween caper…I say something like, “Don’t go down that road!”

we used to build household shrines to Going On The Computer and it's no coincidence that as we abandoned these we started straying further from god's light

It's cool how "no one is above the law" is something people now only say to troll people. Nobody believes it!

Gerrymandering is now done by professionals who use software to prevent "dummymanders" (districts that might trend the wrong way for their party). If you normalize mid-decade redistricting, a party could stay in power forever by re-adjusting the maps every two years.

Basic stuff!

The amount of people I’ve diagnosed with illnesses accurately before they get tests done has risen once more. I’m in double digits. This is all thanks to my years of hypochondria and watching medical dramas. Lmao

Jesus, the trouble I used to get in saying the Obama admin needed to prosecute absolutely everybody for Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo. "Think of the election." "Be practical." "Play the long game." What fucking ever. All those people belong in the prisons they build for others.

You can quickly out the film majors in the room when a bunch of us library staff are standing around watching the setup of a new 4k projector and going “oooo” at how good “The Red Shoes” looked even with the overhead lights on…lmao
