Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

I would find it difficult to be a vegetarian, given my hunger that we eat the rich.
During the height of the pandemic, Tyson used Palantir to predict Covid-19 infections among meatpacking workers down to a nearly exactly figure. But rather than using this data to increase worker protections, Tyson used it plan for labor shortages + plant closures

It was always Necro politics and calculated murder all for the profit of the 1%. When I say this is a replay of the let it rip era pandemic policies. It’s because that’s exactly what this is the acceptance of mass death and suffering for profit.

The reason we continue to see Democrats literally capitulating with fascists at key moments where actual continued resistance would have fractured the fascists power is because fracturing the systemic powers that support fascism would also destroy neoliberalism and its theater in place of action.
