Folks acting confused that Mamdani would meet with a fascist who was calling for his arrest, deportation, etc. because y'all still think this fight is about individual bad actors and not a system working as-designed.

Re-districting to suppress votes is always fascist. It is antithetical to democracy and I'm seeing folks proudly post photos of their ballots which turns my stomach.

Been seeing criticism of WWII/antifa comparisons dismissed as disingenuous b/c vets supposedly didn't identify as antifa.

My WWII vet grandpa was anti-fascist & taught me to hate em just the same.

He was a recovery diver & every wreck intensified that hatred.

For Israel, too. (l/u: uss liberty)

Rep. Darrell Issa has plagued California most of my life & now he wants to create an anti-fascist hit list. So you're a fascist, Darrell?

Issa wants to get people doxxed, harassed, & possibly harmed or killed. I'm so glad my 95 y/o neighbor voted for him every single opportunity.

I mean, look at this blurry coyote.

I walked out front last night around 1am w/ my dogs and 2 coyotes were at the bottom of the driveway.

I said hey, let them know they're fine, then did obligatory kissy noises.

Live *within* your ecosystem--don't demand "dominion over all."

I wrote a detailed explanation of why this is colonial violence on the Insta/Facebook post.

Went ahead and pasted that here. It's a bit long.

At least the garden is happy.

Catholic Church is one of the largest private landowners in the world.

Francis had opportunities to do *real* good, but remained loyal to his institution.

Do not mourn the loss of a multi-billionaire who protected child predators & defended colonial interests.

I haven't made any art in weeks.

Meanwhile, my kid took some awesome photos today.

Those are slurs, yes. Look into the eugenics origins of them. I specialize in white nationalist rhetoric.

& I'm really cracking up now b/c you police other people for using ableist slurs. But it's cool if you do it!

You also use saneist language & denied the experience of a disabled person.

I didn't even have to scroll much. It was just a few skeets down.

Lmfao @ "do you think" b/c it makes this deliciously ironic.

Spring Break means I have 7 days to read as many books from the TBR pile as humanly possible.

I find it repulsive that #CSU is forcing #ChatGPT down our throats.

Students don't have the information necessary to understand how data is being scraped and these AI models are training on their labor. Their intellectual property. Their work. Their ideas. Their words.

The next observance is 9/16.

Remember the 16000+ people sent on these death marches, paraded through major cities like circus animals.

Remember the 4000+ who died, especially Africans & Afro-Natives forced to carry their enslavers' property along those trails.

I see you racists mad about an African samurai in a video game & raise you the high probability that Yasuke & Nobunaga were very much "besties."

In the archeology or History Channel sense of the word.

Didn't realize how overwhelming re-diagnosis was & shut down to process.

Sorry if anyone felt ignored by my inability to reply.

University lecturers deserve the opportunity to go on sabbatical like our TT/T colleagues.

We do the bulk of teaching & can't focus on anything else. Then we burn out.
