As someone who grew up around a brand of evangelical toxic paternalism I must say, controlling men feel threatened when they see people living free. It asks them to challenge their stereotypes about masculinity in a way that is very uncomfortableโ€”they learn how weak their version of a man really is.

lyrics on a red background:
Hades serving up a boulder again
Sissy sporting yoked hammies and a shit-eating grin
Felo de se, felo de mens, aut felo de felo
Revolt, revolt, revolt

Track 2: Do Not Go Gentle

It is a boy painted red, mischief in his eyes, cliff-diving off the precipice of the yawning abyss, singing all the way down. It is a celebration of Sisyphusโ€™s hamstrings.

Lyrics next to a drawing of a knife:
God, he is vengeful; and god will be paid what he's owed; coinage won't cut it; his currency's red; so lay back and let the cash flow

Track 1: Bones

Bones is a haunting echo wailed from the distant inescapable past, and it is a thesis statement for the album it inaugurates. @rosyoverdrive.com called it one of the best album openers of the year. ~2:17 is one of my favorite moments on the record.

One year ago, I released my first album. I poured my blood and guts into making it.

Last year i was Going Through Some Stuff, and couldn't put much time into sharing how proud I was of this record. More of that to come. But for now... give this guy a spin. I think you'll like it โ™ฅ๏ธ

39. Is the writing part of the self a separate self that can lead the non-writing part of the self into a higher.. more resilient echelon of selfhood?

40. Even if that is possible, is anyone who even asks such questions too neurotic to ever participate in that type of transformation?

We need a bigger national spotlight on this building raid, fam. Agents dropped from helicopters onto the roof. Citizens and non-citizens alike were dragged from their homes in the night. People who weren't kidnapped during the raid had their belongings seized after the fact. This is madness.

Dude if the Democratic Party has a place for anti-trans and anti-abortion candidates then Iโ€™m not a democrat and I wonโ€™t vote for one

I donโ€™t know what to tell you man, thereโ€™s already a political party who believes these things

Itโ€™s not a โ€œbig tentโ€ to have zero fixed values in pursuit of power

Though the manโ€™s killing had been filmed, a fact checker is obliged to seek comment from any party alleged to have committed a crime. I called the soldierโ€™s lawyer. He picked up from a cafรฉ, where I could hear trance music blasting in the background. The lawyer told me that while, yes, his client did shoot the man picking olives, and yes, the man did die, the Israeli military court found his client not guilty of murder because the man picking olives was a terrorist who was throwing stones. Even though the video did not show the Palestinian man throwing stones, the court said that he was, so he was. QED, his client did not murder anyone, and it would be slanderous for us to say so.

Their waists and hands were tied together, forcing them to bend down and lick water to drink. The unscreened bathrooms contained only a single sheet to cover their lower bodies. Sunlight barely penetrated through a fist-sized hole, and they were only allowed access to the small yard for two hours. Detained by US immigration authorities for eight days, the workers and their families expressed shock, describing human rights violations and absurdities they could not have imagined as ordinary Koreans living in 2025.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

Today I was in a school library with a trained librarian. The school includes unhoused children and the kids of university professors. Watching how the librarian made all the kids feel welcome. Seeing the stiff, tense, worried body language soften. As they saw, maybe there is a space for me here. ๐Ÿ’œ

The dead have a right to remain dead. An animated skin put over a computer model and given the same name as the dead son of grieving parents is a cursed golem and a full delusion. By interviewing the computer model, Acosta has asked us to accept this as true or real. Gun control deserves better.
