An emerging soup kitchen network in Portland. Fighting ICE with muscle and phones. Mamdani drawing 90K volunteers behind socialist proposals. The birds are still nesting in old Kropotkin's beard.

FULL REVIEW: Scott Galloway's Notes on Being a Man.

A new book about how young men are abused by capitalism (Galloway doesn't *quite* say it like this), but how things could get better for them, especially sex, if they got better at capitalism.

Freire said, “People teach each other, mediated by the world.”

We can walk through the online forest with kids together.

The danger is capitalism. The internet concentrates it. Love and good attachment dissipates it.

The CIA funnelled cash and inspo to Evangelicals in Latin America starting in the 1960s to undermine Liberation Theology. The Vatican low-key approved. But now, Pope Leo is leaning hard on Liberation Theology to counter Trumpism.

Social media has been filled with clips of Curtis Sliwa, the Republican nominee for mayor of NYC. He's been proving quite the foil for Andrew Cuomo's attempt to upset Zohran Mamdani. But who is this man, exactly? @julianwalker.bsky.social and I discuss.

For me guys like Thiel are walking proof that revolution is inevitable. That's part of why he really loves using Rene Girard's Antichrist concept to represent anyone who would challenge his narcissism.

I hope everyone has a passionate day out there at #nokingsday.

Also: it's time for a little review of Chenoweth.

Remember that “3.5 % peaceful protest” rule? There are problems with it.

Movements that changed history weren’t polite or orderly.
