i was telling @tisjune.bsky.social about this. mundane people have an overwrought sense of propriety; when they receive an award, they won't bring up connected struggles that may embarrass the people giving them the award. alice pointed out the Palestinian struggle in her MacArthur grant statement.
Alice was a master of calling out power without losing sight of community. She named the violence of austerity, medical rationing, eugenics & state abandonment with unflinching clarity. But she also paired critique with genuine belief that disabled futures are possible & already emerging everywhere

Alice Wong, writer and disability activist, has died. She was an educator and a communicator and a warrior who lit the way. I’m grateful to have crossed paths with her. Rest in peace.

Feel like In recent years autocorrect has been making some odd choices.
Sure love that nothing is safe from enshittification.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists.
They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver.

There’s not enough attention being paid to the fact that ICE deported a man in a persistent vegetative state
Or the fact that he was perfectly healthy when he was detained, and his family have no idea what was done to him to cause such a severe decline
He died shortly after being deported to Cuba

Pains me to say it but I think this is true. Some of my colleagues in the media who’ve stayed on X don’t even realize how badly its noxious algorithm is skewing their perception of politics and reality.
Also, that place seems designed to make you miserable unless you’re a Nazi. It’s just wretched.

Tonight's even more proof the mainstream reporters who are still on Twitter are suffering from a brain problem akin Havana Syndrome that is preventing them from accurately doing their jobs. They are being cooked alive by a snuff-focused apartheid algorithm.

People show up for policies worth showing up for. Polls consistently show them as popular. They just aren’t popular among the donor class.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."

This is incredible framing. Folks. We have the best framing. Everyone’s saying this.
I can’t believe there are not one but two articles, in major papers, with this dumb framing. It is not NIMBY to express dismay when a big part of the White House is suddenly rubbled

The Rutgers TPUSA chapter — whose characterization of a historian there as a “outspoken, well-known antifa member” led to death threats and moving his family to Europe — think *other* people are being “blatantly defamatory.”
