All I see on my Twitter timeline are reporters parsing every quote from AOC in Germany, trying to mock them for incoherence or inaccuracy, while a demented old man who can’t string sentences together or stay awake sits in the Oval, while the legacy media happily sanewashes his quotes.

In London alone, councils are spending £5m a day on temporary accommodation and support for people experiencing homelessness.
Imagine if that money was spent on housing and helping people avoid homelessness in the first place?

I typically enjoy classic lit adaptations, but the “I never read Wuthering Heights, but this new version is awesome, because we’re excusing it as a fever dream” thing is an…issue. The novel was about trauma, racism, and abuse. (1/?)

The Orville is top notch. Starts off silly and a little awkward, but became a truly great piece of resistence Sci Fi. Dolly Parton was in one of the last episodes, which dealt with gender identity and civil rights.

I really like this essay because it’s explicit that the neighborhood envisioned by people like Simonoff is truly dystopian. They lack a vision of anything that doesn’t involve racialized anxiety and fear, and that’s what they are trying to sell us.
“It’s an auspicious coincidence that Sunday’s Super Bowl offered a counterargument to Ring’s dystopian vision in the form of Bad Bunny’s halftime spectacle, which featured the ‘La Casita’ concept that made his recent Las Vegas residency so critically acclaimed”

Back on the bird platform, I used to create lists of queer historical romances by themes. Then the options began dwindling, but I’ve been collecting them for decades, so I think it’s time to publish my own.
