As well-meaning publishers try to navigate the coming storm of state laws against diversity, I hope they'll consider Timothy Snyder's Rule #1 (from his slim book ON TYRANNY).

My new favourite way to start each month is an evening with @loulayorke.bsky.social’s newest mixtape and a good read of the liner notes. I read faster than I listen so I know what’s coming up and I’m looking forward to the cat purrs.

When the empty ugliness at the centers of power becomes clear to you, if that is a sharp, new, devastating feeling, a good thing to do is to follow the instructions of those far from centers of power who have been seeing, surviving, strategizing & surviving for a long, long time.

Okay so to be clear we are destroying power grids, the livelihoods of actual humans beings, and communication/research infrastructure for the sake of an algorithm that converts stolen data into unreliable stolen data and consistently loses millions of dollars. Just to be clear

Two weeks ago, I became the centre of a baffling panic among the online Men's Rights community. I wrote this to say how weird, stupid and depressing that was, but also that I haven't given up on people just yet.
