4 grounding questions [if useful at this moment]:
1. What resources exist so I can better educate myself [about x issue]?
2. Who's already doing work around this injustice?
3. Do I have the capacity to offer concrete support & help to them?
4. How can I be constructive?

The tiny lil humans are just trying to figure out how to be humans, and thats gotta be hard! Even once youβve got it figured out, dealing with tiny humans is hard! Two things can be true at once. Because at the end of the day, were all just tryna figure out this thing called life.

I remember being on a flight next to a child who was screaming extraordinarily loud. I remember feeling a lil irritated before realizing that my ears had just popped. It occurred to me that the poor lil guy likely felt the same discomfort but had no idea what was happening. I would be screaming too!

the funny thing about the constant misappropriation of MLK is that the guy left a massive body of writing specifically aimed at explaining his views of those of the movement he represented to the broad public. it is extremely easy to know what the guy thought on a variety of subjects and yet

I am a professor because the McNair Scholars Program showed me what I was capable of. I will fight with everything I have to make sure others have the same opportunities.
McNair matters!

Every major publication in this country needs to have dedicated staffers or correspondents reporting on gaming, streamers, podcasts, and TikTok. Not as a once in a while thing. As standard beats. These are massive segments of American culture. No excuses for it anymore.

I agree with those who say that by attacking sanctuary cities, the administration was trying to provoke a response they could exploit. But here's the thing: there is no perfect move for a community under siege. Cooperation and the passive absorption of violence are also highly exploitable moves.

It's hard to overstate how destructive the reflexive "this is a distraction!" stuff that politicians and commentators and people are always peddling.
Everything is happening all at once. That's how authoritarianism works. If you can't navigate and synthesize this, you're not meeting the moment.
