My dog is a true master of getting treats out of people. He just looks at them with this face and the treats rain down upon him!!!

What an era of history to be watching Reds for the first time.

Cannot recommend telling off a doctor that ignored your pain for YEARS enough. Especially after a female doctor’s blatant sexism completely validates it AND locates the source of your pain in minutes.

Feels worth pointing out that I hope Bari Weiss’ reign of terror at CBS is a huge flop.

Sometimes it feels like I forgot how to do all social media when I got banned from twitter two years ago.

Welcome to the capitalist innovation museum we got

- psychosis inducing machine
- weapons of mass destruction
- button you push that makes the planet hotter
- markets that intentionally starve people
- clothes that fall apart after washing them 1 time
- medicine you can’t afford

Alright, so I've been afraid to say this out loud, but I think after today, I can say it: In the first Battle of Los Angeles, the good people of LA County have prevailed. We beat ICE back. 1/

I wrote something about fear and facing the Big Feelings that come from doing the things you’ve long wanted and been too scared to do. There’s even a VERY EMBARRASSING VIDEO AT THE END!!!!!!

I’m so bad at promoting the shit I do on social media anymore, but it is cool to see this video I directed for Elle UK finally out in the world.

It was such a rad experience, not only to meet her, but to get so many compliments on a job well done. A fun reminder that I am dope and do dope shit.

@prisonculture.bsky.social and I have been encouraging people to read chapter six of our book, Let This Radicalize You, which deals with the question of "violence" in social movements. We have decided to share the chapter publicly, to offer some context and grounding for the current conversation.
Protest, Power, and the Violence Debate
