Ich lese gerade Don't talk about Politics von @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social, die auf Basis ihrer Forschung auch feststellt, dass es Identität viel mehr als eine inhaltliche Position ist, auf die es ankommt.

Really enjoyed this book about people’s relationships with their AI. I was also surprised by how much was about people using it to do incredibly niche kink and or screenwriting.

Great piece on the power of short form videos, and the challenges of it for left wing groups.

Thank you!

Really enjoy Sarah's practical approach to reversing the trend of misinformation and aggressive fearmongering.

Wish more people would read her stuff.

I’ve just started reading “Don’t Talk About Politics.”

It’s fascinating and amazingly well written. Am recommending it far and wide.

Thank you so much!

i put out a video this week that's about what we should do instead of arguing about politics via a discussion of @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social's very good book Don't Talk About Politics.

This is how far you have to scroll on the NYTimes homepage to get any coverage of what's going on day-to-day in an occupied American city where schools are closing because the government is checking the papers of all brown or Asian people then brutalizing, imprisoning or killing them.

this one explores @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social VERY good book Don't Talk About Politics.

Interesting talk by @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social on her book #DontTalkAboutPolitics - around issues of political organising, how protest only changes the protestors, political debates creating division not enlightenment, and social atrophy as the crisis of our age… www.youtube.com/live/MkQ6Bah...

@sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social has a chapter that discusses what protests are for in Don't Talk About Politics; it was a helpful read regarding concerns about impact that provided more shape to some of my own ambivalence

Those are actually considered “short” in this wild content world!

One of the many things I’m grateful for this year is @graceblakeley.substack.com ‘s reading and writing about my book. Her Substack is wonderful for many other reasons—worth subscribing! <3

Yay! :))) yes it’s a sneaky title heh.

Nope you are totally correct!

Also thank you so much for the kind words!

Yes! It’s an error. One that drove me crazy. I believe it’s fixed in the reprint. Ahhh! Sorry.

Cover & excerpts of Talk About Politics

‘Don’t Talk About Politics’ @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social Recently I’ve ruminated on my social media rhetoric & what is personally meaningful, and her book is the perfect food for thought. Written in layman’s language. #booksky Available at ThriftBooks now.

This sentence in particular made me think of @sarahsteinlubrano.bsky.social: "Desires need not be altered through forceful imposition of political principles but can shift as a result of the cultivation of new habitats which draw out other patterns of feeling and thinking about others"

"The Great Feminization" Is Straight-Up Misogyny And Larry Summers Can Go Fuck Himself

open.substack.com/pub/therepub...

It’s on Larry Summers, why he is such a funny guy to be bringing up right now, why this whole thing about the “great feminisation” is really just a repackaging of alt right ideology, how women are actually being pushed out of “feminine” jobs by Trumpian economic policies, and more.
