i feel like the ‘back to normal’ crowd who don’t include accessibility in their spaces are like, “this is what OUR group has decided is our vibe 🫶!”. but didn’t include anyone disabled in that consensus…. but then also say “i’m/we’re not ableist!”

Oh 100%.

People who are mad that the libs made them wear masks

People who had to confront their own vulnerability traumatically, and want a Daddy to fix it

People who decided fuck it, I don't want to care about others

People who resented having to protect the vulnerable & are now eugenicists
I still think that some of the current paralysis and longing for an authoritarian leader has to do with Covid impact and aftermath.

oil paint on canvas from last year. i was thinking about brain fog and the bad fatigue i was experiencing last winter, which was probably mostly due to being really anemic. im grateful those symptoms have improved for me now.

Aaron Bushnell died by self-immolation in protest of the Gaza genocide a year ago today. His memory should stir a fire in our souls, and force us to evaluate our commitment to a better world. mondoweiss.net/2025/02/reme...

The Glorious Revolution is going to come mostly from care work being done outside the purview of the current system. The anger is VALID but please do not prioritize/fetishize violent action: most of what we need right now is how to get folks food, medicine, necessities, & luxuries without the state.

Which, by the way.

Someday we are going to have to come to terms with the fact that COVID minimization was (is) a form of disinformation and that our collective, willful departure from science played a role in the rise of irreality proponents like RFK Jr.
Actually let me be more clear. It's not that COVID broke our brains.

What broke our brains was the willful, eugenic denial the "normality at any cost" crew pushed. We're all literally afraid to acknowledge that illness exists now.

How does a genocide sound? Amid bombs, missiles, explosions, what silences does it impose?
And what sounds can an international solidarity front produce? How can one exploit reverberation, exercise echo? How can all frequencies be occupied to finally make the inaudible present?
