I love this. "Personally, I am growing tired of archives, or rather of the over-romanticization of them as infinite sources of liberatory politics. To me, it is a failure of representational politics when our discourse ends with presence rather than action."
Archival Art Will Not Save Us
Archival work has a place in historical recovery and cultural self-understanding. But not every artwork must be archival, and our politics shouldn’t end with presence rather than action.

It's pretty amazing to me the amount of shit that apparently you can Just Do as an NYC mayor. It makes basically every other American politician look like an incompetent loser.

What do you mean there was just a button that reversed wage theft? Why wasn't and isn't everyone hitting it all the time??

during one of the penalty breaks at the hockey game the other night the organist was fucking shredding and I knew the melody but could not place it--so i've been humming it for the last 2.5 days only to finally place it as "Lithium" by Nirvana after cycling through about 3 different eras/genres.

I think the thing that scares me the most about *everything right now* is that there likely will not be a post-hoc reckoning--we will put "unity" and "decorum" over justice and we will allow our history to be re-written by the biggest fucking losers ever.

What makes Gavin Newsom such a skilled politician is that he stands up to Trump’s bullying with piping hot memes AND is able to agree with Trump about policy

The good news is all the brazen, cartoonish corruption makes it easier to run on an anti-oligarchy, good government platform. The bad news is you still need candidates who want to do that
