James Baldwin’s message was simple: we’re afraid of love, because we’re afraid of exposing our true selves.
The Lives and Loves of James Baldwin
An older generation dismissed him as passé; a newer one has recast him as a secular saint. But Baldwin’s true message remains more unsettling than either camp recognizes.

Imagine knowing gerrymandering exists yet still rallying against a whole state as if it doesn’t.

“The South is enemy territory, fallen to the baddies!“ is just the leftwing version of “Portland is a warzone! LA is on fire! New York has fallen!” nonsense. Though often even *worse*, with the whole “let them die” attitude.

tormented by a vision of a nameless Roman emperor in the Coliseum. it's full, teeming with life and sound and scent and movement; and as the crowd looks to him, he, eyes wild, hands raised palms-up, cries out in a voice loud enough for all creation to hear: LET'S GET THIS TRENDING

When women, especially queer women, get medievalist it's more about reclaiming the Lady Knight—woman as hero, woman as subject not object—than anything else. It's about saying We Belong: here now, and there then. #medievalsky
