Does this idolization contribute to the problem? Does it place these figures on a pedestal, contribute to an imbalance of power? I mean ultimately people who abuse power to abuse people are responsible, but I wonder if this provides kindling for the fire
I'm hearing people talk about making "safe author" lists/starter packs and hahahahaha holy shit that's a terrible idea. Just start drafting your "We had no idea" post now, because you're going to need it.

“New content moderation rules” that’s rich, I guess you could say the rule is, there are no rules!
Meta has told employees that they're laying off 5 percent of staff on Feb. 10, sources tell me & @mikeisaac.bsky.social @sheeraf.bsky.social. Layoffs are coming after employees have pushed back on new content moderation rules.

Edith Thompson woke up next to her dead husband, something she had done 3 times before, but this time she didn’t do it. #veryshortstory

Love this
your hard
is chipped away
I'm no polished stone
but I'm here to stay

let me be your earth
let your electrons disperse
you are not alone
as long as I have a heart,
you have a home

you've decided
your fate
your resignation
& my hope
don't equate
but I'm here to say

it's never
too late

Today vacuumed any illusion of youth from me.

Emotionally, I'm worn bone deep, and feeling ancient.

My instinct is to be angry with you.
But It’s easy to pretend I’m perfect
And you are not, but that’s not true.
Or it is something in between.
So as I pass by piles of trash and mangled steel, I remind myself that the world is our trashcan, and the world is our home.
Some of the refuse is mine.

Hometown love final part

Each year I spend away from home is a year of watching from afar and fearing that my hometown has forgotten its “love of the human.” But each time I return my faith is rewarded, each time I walk its streets I am met with death and life, imperfections and love.

Hometown love pt3

The shadow of the neglected mountain subdues my hometown each morning, while potential consumer experiences and investment opportunities race west towards the setting sun.

Hometown love pt2

The poetry of my hometown is in the tall and ancient sycamore trees that guard decaying houses. While blocks away carefully manicured landscapes adorne formulaic “planned”communities.

Hometown love pt1

“if anything is capable of making a poet of a literary man, it is my hometown love of the human,”
To be human is to be imperfect,
To be perfect is to be unlovable.

I understand how philosophy makes people think “why does this even matter?” Maybe it can’t give you answers that are definitive, but what it does is that it gives a willing soul a chance to decide what you think the truth is, because without deciding what reality is to you, you can’t really live.

There is no lesson to learn from your pain,
No purpose to the heartache,
Such sad words may feel so profane
Exceedingly so to those hearts that break.
