Mine is that empathy and compassion are crucial practices that we need much more of. When I see people on the right say that empathy is overrated or “empathy is bad actually” I find it deeply disturbing.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

The Epstein case against Trump is as if everyone is looking at a 500 piece puzzle with 2 pieces missing and pretending they can't make out the picture for certain.

It is very important to me that more people know the theme tune to Star Trek: Enterprise was written for Rod Stewart to sing for the 1998 Robin Williams movie, Patch Adams.
Not sure what was worse: the trainer who took my gym class this morning starting the workout to the theme from Star Trek: Enterprise, or him not *knowing* it was the theme from Star Trek: Enterprise when I asked him, implying that he actually found the song by another route and LIKED it???

The age of the personal brand is dead and the way forward is collective artist co-ops like Dropout
The idea of conforming to ever changing platforms that are never satisfied with your output is insane and unsustainable. Relying on each other is what will help artists survive

I‘ve seen a lot of smug “well I don’t buy Starbucks anyway” responses (which is honestly fair I’m in the same boat) but as a former Starbucks employee may I suggest looking up if any stores in your city are unionized and dropping by with pizza/donuts/water/high-fives to show support?
Union Starbucks baristas have overwhelmingly authorized an unfair labor practice strike starting TOMORROW (Thursday, November 13th), grinding Starbucks to a halt during the company’s busiest sales day of the year.
