Academic with a flair for fabric and fascist call-outs.
Chaos wrangler, reluctant adult.
Master’s degree in surviving late-stage capitalism with style.
Channeling my inner Rosa Luxemburg, but with better shoes.

Some days I’m reminded that history has a way of producing one brave soul willing to shake the whole system with one decisive act. Let’s just say… we could use a Charlotte Cordey right about now.

Oh yeah, nothing says “let’s lead the future” like punishing innovation with tariffs. Brilliant move—let’s just throw a wrench into tech, research, and global collaboration while we’re at it. Who needs progress when we can have overpriced goods. At this rate, we’ll be “great” again… in the 1800s.

I hope Elon is overestimating his appeal now that people have gotten to know him better and he's begun ransacking our federal government by cutting jobs and benefits. His presence is also a reminder to Wisconsin voters that an outsider is trying to buy their election.

Tulsi’s whole brand is playing “outsider truth-teller” while platforming dictators, parroting right-wing talking points, and cozying up to authoritarian narratives. She didn’t “leave the party”—she pivoted to whatever camera would give her airtime.

The freedom to critique the system is actually the most American thing there is. Or… was?
Because lately, questioning authority gets you labeled unpatriotic, ungrateful, or worse—a threat.
Democracy dies when dissent becomes disloyalty.

Trump's Plainclothes Gestapo abduct people like Rumeysa Ozturk off streets, instead of dorms, because people going about their business are unlikely to be carrying green cards, passports, or birth certificates. This deprives them of *any* ability to prove a legal presence. Not that many are asked.

The United States is home to approximately 813 billionaires, combined wealth of around $6.72 trillion. If billionaires in America paid their fair share in taxes, we’d have universal healthcare, funded schools, affordable housing, and maybe even pothole-free roads.

If you're in a red state, your lawmakers are putting their fealty to their cult leader over the safety of you and your children.

Can we now add admitting to a war crime in that chat to the list?
You tell me?

A former North Dakota state senator was just sentenced to ten years in prison for flying to Prague and paying someone so he could rape children.
I’ll give you no guesses as to what his political party is because you already know.

Activism is about listening and experimentation. You have to try things, see if they work, and then double down on the stuff that's working. You learn by doing it.
There is no "one cool trick to overthrow fascism and bring about utopia." Don't believe anyone who claims to have all the answers.

The Florida's thinking about changing some child labor laws to get people to fill jobs that undocumented immigrants left is giving me big nightmares.
First step of fascism: Expel the immigrants.
Second step: Children exploitation.
Third step: Force women to give birth to maintain the workforce.
