This photo made me understand class in America in a way that I was unable to process before seeing it. The rich enjoy class solidarity on a level that is unimaginable to most people.
They like cops so much that all we’re getting is cops. No roads, no bridges, no school funding, no culture money, just a bouquet of different types of cops
as long as they still explode mr feeny in it
i'd also add, for any self-professed perverts— how brave, how transgressive is your work if it falls within otherwise normative (+ refresh on theory of cishetnormativity) standards of beauty/attraction? if you don't know how to describe a fat person in art or words, how creative is it? how QUEER?

My latest. "Do not allow your values to be captured and contained behind a screen in a cycle of inactive reaction. Jailbreak your cynicism and isolation, and escape your devices. Bring your hope, rage, and potential into the world."
In ten years the only cinema that will be left will be anime and micro-budget horror films made by trans women that are passed around on vimeo. I am looking forward to it.
i don't think the development of neoliberalism into a gnostic death cult was inevitable but we have to live with the history we have

You need to know and understand who BlackRock is.
when will a Silent Hill game allow me to press R3 to toggle on and off my Silent Vision so i am able to see collectibles and critical story path highlighted from my perched towers to lift the fog obscuring my map
Would they be able to get away with all this if we didnt have to go to work? Do work, rent and bills only exist to produce profit, or is it just as importantly a function of social pacification, punishment and control? Is the economy just about money, or is it also about power?

One woman among those charged died in custody while detained at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center, shortly after she attended a hearing on June 17 during which she pleaded not guilty to 14 charges, 10 of which carried enhancements under California’s Three Strikes Law for prior felony convictions. During that hearing, she was remanded to custody and had bail set at $1.33 million. Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Lieutenant Daniel Vizcarra told LA Public Press that she was found hanging in a cell lockup, later that day. The coroner pronounced her dead just before 4 a.m. the next morning, on June 18, 2025.

Anthony Oliveira tweet from September 2020: every single day for four years I have thought about Nazi jurist Carl Schmitt gloating that you can dismantle a democracy right in front of a liberal's face piece by piece and all they'll do is convene breakout sessions and commitee meetings til the boots are in the halls.
Reminded today of this timeless adage
