It sucks but any time a space goes right wing like Twitter did or shit the bed completely like Tumblr did or algorithm itself to death like Insta did it just means we need to move on. Tech in particular is run volatile (especially now) so no space is guaranteed. Adapting + your own spaces are key.

This is terrible. They don't even know what this creative imagination dialogue engine is (it is most certainly not a search engine). And if they ask it, it will lie to them. Infuriating that people have emptied the word "facts" of all meaning. And continue to evacuate meaningful words.

We’ll tell ourselves that getting politics right could somehow undo the moral hollowing-out being white begins to mean in a person from the moment one comes into the world. We’ll be wrong. It needs exposing in oneself. And this needs to be spoken. I’m sorry to persist. I am grateful for you.

and the problem of coming to grips with it. not that this is the first or second or third or fourth thing that needs to be heard on the subject, least of all by non-white people from whites. but it does need speaking.

i’d want to amend this in one way only: something of white experience one does well to speak about on personal authority is the moral hollowness one’s life is cut through by, from birth, in belonging to the oppressor side of a racist reality — the inward degradation itself …

I wrote this earlier, but it may be broadly applicable today. Accepting things you can't control doesn't mean giving in to hopelessness. Quite the opposite- it's a guide for how sleep at night after facing ugly truths. I sleep knowing I did what I could, and the rest is out of my hands.

The U.S. anticommie liberal right hadn’t ideologized ‘family’ and misogyny to anything like the degree the Catholics had, in other words — but once they got it, they got it.

May be useful to say that an American Christian right is really born at that point. Where there’d been a U.S. Catholic politics rooted in the Church’s European conflicts of the 19th century on one hand and a Prot.-dominated U.S. anticommunist liberal right on the other, in the 70s a fusion happens.

Sometimes, such small things as the cooing of a wood pigeon on a hot but gradually cooling summer's afternoon can be the most evocative thing in the world. I suppose that for me, it's also reminiscent of childhood days in Chiang Mai, where it would have been zebra or spotted doves instead.
