thank you.. wait till he hears about us Moors --- "Berbers"/Amazigh, Fatimid and Kalbid Caliphates and more. The original South of that land is way more North African than it is European

yup I just wrote a piece for my agent about what I think the root of this is: the opened permission to hate, & the hunger to hurt others, is a narcotic drug that gives them this foul ecstasy & they get intoxicated by it. Whether it's the white-wing Cubans or the rednecks in the giant pickup trucks

this is powerful

bro I completely agree... I moved up to Broward from Miami bc the Cuban white-wing hate & supremacy down there is sick and pervasive & rude and brimming with violence, including this one dude who literally shot at and tried to kill these 2 dudes spending the day together on a jet ski w a Biden flag.

Reading it aloud really does make a difference. One of the new things I'm trying to do is keep writing forward then do editing later, but I always wind up revising and perfecting and revising more the pages already written.

the frog with wheels for hind legs (and 3 eyes) coming out of the wall behind the others is so random and inane

Some people actually say AI artists are good artists. That sh*t makes me sick. My literary agent says I'm non-derivative & I thank God for that. The way forward for artists & writers is to live fully unique lives of expression, & brand from within that. That anchors your value despite all the mess.

Yes and we need to be loud and clear here... everybody Isrl & the IDF arbitrarily say is a terrorist they get to murder. With impunity and zero accountability. Journalism and writing are about providing on-the-ground facts-based coverage. Isrl has killed over 200 journalists for doing just that.

I was never even on it, so being here brand new on BlueSky is like a first time experience people were having what 20 years ago?

I tried and while its evocations of the still wild Texas plains and North American Southwest were luminous and reaching into and pulling the soul, the gruesome extremely graphic violence was just too much... couldn't finish it at all.

I've been an activist since the 90s. The lead up to the turn of the Millennium was heady and exciting. People passed around the Lewis Thomas/ Lives of a Cell quote: "Get us through the next few years, I say, just get us safely out of this century and into the next, and then watch what we can do."
