Went to Lone Star Zine fest this weekend. There was so much there that I got a little overwhelmed.
I intended to find specific creators who align with my specific interests.
Instead, I got out of my comfort zone and engaged with creators of all different stripes.

don’t type anything online you wouldn’t feel comfortable defending to the worst faith interlocutors imaginable, and don’t say shit in front of a classroom you wouldn’t want to hear repeated back at you in court
My dad told me never put anything in writing that you wouldn’t tell the entire world.
As mom always said, never write an email you wouldn’t want on the front page of a newspaper.

It's kind of weird that I'll be seeing Fear this weekend. I first listened to "More Beer" when I was too young to buy the stuff.
"All I want is moooore beeeeeeeeeeeeeeer!!" - 17 year old me. Now I'm going to see them after not touching beer for a few years beyond the occasional non-alcoholic bottle.

I debated writing this. It can feel tempting, upon encountering yet another instance of this administration’s racism, to let it be. How many ways can you say the same thing over and over again? And yet we have to write it down, if for nothing else, so those who come after us know we were against it.
