I stopped understanding consumer video when it stopped allowing you to “scrub” it forward and backward at a chosen speed. (So, post-VHS?)

Product design that tries to silo my behavior just makes me want to misbehave.

💯 Good policy can be called “Martian” and not intrinsically change.

I’m still puzzled by how we ended up calling FDR and Eisenhower economic policies “socialist.”

Then again, both of them were closer to Ho Chi Minh than Milton Friedman. Bloomberg and Harvard Business have us all tongue-twisted.

Absolutely! It’s a damned-if-you do, damned-if-you-don’t discursive bind. What is racism’s “undoing?”

Calling it biological fiction is narratively hijacked by other fictions like rational market individualism to deny social epigenetics.

Calling it socially epigenetic is derided as reconstituting.

100% 💪. That’s a valid interpretation of my imperfect metaphor in which it’s certainly false.

I hoped to convey that as race is a biological fiction about aptitude and pathology, I try (also imperfectly) to keep its truthful consequence separate from “trickle-out” phenotype eugenics in my thinking.

Race is often an incidental stenographer of economic privilege.

Social media can normalize anonymous activist takes and moral red lines that require spectacular economic privilege.

I try to remind myself that the economic privilege egg comes before the melanin chicken.

Part of the challenge with me and podcasting is that I’m not easily verbal and pre-recorded for “Sixteenth Minute” at a rate of about three minutes per hour 😀

Even then, jamieloftus.bsky.social and whysophiewhy.bsky.social expertly separated gold from ample silt and a few radioactive hazards 🙏 😀

Have you read @dr-nicky.bsky.social’s book “Neuroqueer Heresies” (also on the website of the same name)?

Her discussion of autistiphobia and neurocosmopolitanism relates to what you describe.

Less than 1% of English speakers follow my unabridged thinking with comfort. Heresy is my homeostasis 🤪

SF = Some Fraternity? Some Futon? Some Fantasy League?

Thanks! Someone could still see it and say “OH MY GOSH I can’t believe you commented on @hankgreen.bsky.social, HE HAS A NOSE!” and get the Anti-Nose Society to brigade and shame me 🤪

Thanks! That's still a public reply though, isn't it? The goal of bookmarks is to track posts in a way that is not public-facing like favorites.

I can’t figure out how to do it. I need a video tutorial.
