I know I'm late to the party here but I just saw Zootopia 2 and damn, it's SUPER about white supremacist colonialism and the Israel Palestinian conflict and I cried super a lot.

Capitalism is when there are 7,000+ results for duvet covers when you're online shopping and then you apply filters to make sure the reviews are good and they're not made of actual plastic, and then there's only 1 result and it costs $114. #freemarket

My wedding ring is a little cabochon sapphire surrounded by tiny diamond chips and mounted crooked to the base, made by an amateur in Russia in 1917.

I think a lot about its first owners, a couple holding hands during the Bolshevik Revolution and staring down the barrel of a world about to change.

Video of federal agents getting run out of Lyn Lake this afternoon. Agents drop a gas can at the end and someone kicks it back at them.

Fun story: My ex once gave me a sack full of silver coins as payment of a debt, back when it wasn't worth much. I'm now watching it balloon in value as the US does a swan dive directly into Trump's booty hole.

Fun for me not even for money so much as the joy of knowing the ex is probably furious. 💀

Chunks of the CNN New Year's broadcast being devoted to validation of suffering and tragedy feels like a harbinger of a number of things tbh.

"Protagonist in the Forest"

Golden hour through
mountain air and green glass coins;
I feel it here, like

the ache of missing
limbs or the memory of
a girlhood secret

I can't quite recall
of how it once felt to live
in my own body.

"Cherry Confettura" 🧵

I keep reaching back
through my DNA, grasping
for women who knew

things like how to make
cherry confettura from
fruit I grew myself

or how to believe
that I can carry on when
everything is loud;

Anyone surprised by Nicki Minaj's TPUSA appearance is silly. She's been a pedophile apologist since forever. C'mon.

After everything I've seen in the Epstein files, I'm not voting for one single person who isn't either introducing or voting for articles of impeachment. There is literally no excuse to not even try. There is nothing more important than this.

#GVerse SNL completely DESTROYED #Shit4Brains for hiding the Epstein files.

This is amazing. Check it out!

"Butte"

Deafening, I bet,
the silence when the headframes
fell asleep for good.
Blinding, I bet, the gut shot
of trust turned rancid and drowned.

"Echo"

I watched a series
about dying, and I think
it made me feel safe—
Like a pebble dropped to count
how long it takes to echo.

One. Two. Three. Four. Five.
And a bright ripple of sound
all the way back up
where I sit waiting, breathing,
wondering how falling feels.

My daughter is 13 and she's trying on my prom dress.

The one I never got to wear because my mother replaced her husband with me and kept me close until I ran.

It was tailored for me; the notes are still pinned to the dress on a little white square of paper.

"Coquettes."

It fits her perfectly.

I think I wasn't built for modern nonchalance.

I need to lie on the temple floor before the crones, begging for guidance. For that to be normal and good.

Write love poems to my friends, cry really hard when anyone cries, feed strangers at my door like I'm their mother.

Where are the yearners?

The controversy around bougie last meal choices has made me realize I have preferences that I can't afford lol.

As a food-obsessed sensory seeker, my last meal would be ridiculously elaborate and sentimental, an all-day affair. What would yours be?

It's good and normal to love and let yourself be loved, even if that wasn't always safe. My childhood gave me physical scars and CPTSD. I get it.

But if you fought to stay soft and open, please tell anyone who makes you feel like you should have calcified shut to fuck off.

The underrepresentation of historical texts on the history of Sicily under Arab and Norman rule is 100% a function of colonial historical revisionism.

Sicily and Palestine are inextricably linked, and daylight on the history of both is important if we're ever going to overcome western colonialism.

What makes anything profound, cruel, funny? Concensus. There's no joke to explain and there never was, bro. What matters is conformity. Color of the year is white but it's not that deep bro, if you ask what it means you're a libtard. Nothing means anything.

6/7. 131. 1488.

It's not that deep, bro.

Cue the fascists.

Don't read the whole book, read the AI-shortened version. You don't need the poetic prose of the full context, it's not that deep bro.

Who even talks like that anymore lol, woke mind virus, it's not that deep bro.

Sexist jokes and slurs aren't harmful, it's not that deep bro.

Funny and serious, right and wrong, good and evil, free and unfree. If everyone agrees, then it must be the thing that everyone agrees it is. And anyone challenging that just doesn't get it.

Get what? Who knows. Doesn't matter. Because it's not that deep. Nothing is.
