We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

reading 50 pages a day in march or i explode, a thread

Can think of nothing more cowardly than pressing a button to shoot a missile that will land dozens or hundreds of miles away. Little bottle of water next to your desk. "Yes sir" and all that shit. Walking around saluting each other. Fucking losers. Killers.

i love this!!!!

iran is a country where millions of people are born, live, fall in love, have children, make art, read books, play sports, doomscroll, cook, build homes, care for one another, fight, argue, complain, and die. iran is a place with real people and we pretend like theres two sides to this shit.

As an architect, this is so fucking bleak. Someone in my profession is taking a hefty design fee to draw these plans.

This is a modern day concentration camp and the design professionals involved should be named and shamed.

My hand holding up The Safekeep by Yael Van Der Wouden with a picture of a house looking from one room all the way to two rooms further, with a small girl sitting at the very end.

Yesterday I finished The Safekeep by Yael Van Der Wouden. It was a buddy read with @rotfriend.bsky.social and it was beautiful and left me with much to think about.
Definitely worth the hype and awards, I want to immediately read it again!!!

@saltwatermp3 ultimately i have to be brave with a picture of punch the monkey dragging his stuffed animal monkey along as he walks on the sand

crying over this monkey named punch who takes his stuffed animal everywhere that the zoo gave him after he was abandoned by his mom
