Reluctant Antagonist (KJ Colt)

Yes and the funny thing is, the audio book version continues to be in the top 20

Maybe you can explain it, but the audio version of it (the narrator, Jenny Seedsman does the most fantastic job) keeps selling and selling

Well you’ve got yourself another purchaser on Wednesday then. Most of the books I consume via audio now are because sitting to physically read is impossible. I don’t have the time. I suspect others are the same.

The suffragette movement lasted 40 years before they broke things. They were non-violent, but they protested for so long and hard to just give women a vote that they lost patience and became militant. For 40 years their non-violent protests were labelled militant, but they weren’t until the end.

How skinheads were beaten in the UK in the 70s. SO IMPORTANT

Dr. Jonathan Flowers is a must follow

It's a choice that's part of a long pattern of anti-blackness on BlueSky and demonstrates an inability to tolerate even the most minor of pushback when said pushback is provided through the very mechanisms of the site.

I know this kills the joke, but some things need to be said plainly.

Suspending Link after he pointed out the how following Jonathan Chait after being accused of transphobia does not allow you to beat the transphobia allegations. In fact, it does the opposite.

To be clear: suspending Link was certainly a choice. And we know what KIND of choice it is.

K-Pop Demon Hunters is legitimately the global cultural phenomenon of 2025 and honestly there are far worse things to be a cultural touchstone this year than a trio of young women fighting literal soul-sucking hegemony through the power of their art

By now you have likely heard that the Israeli military captured the activists trying to bring aid like milk powder and baby formula to Gaza.

Two of those released report that Israeli soldiers dragged Greta Thunberg by the hair, beat her, tied her up, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag.

Have you considered self-publishing? I am not suggesting I be directly involved, but I’m a self publishing project manager from back in 2015. Fiction is a different beast, but perhaps look into it… it does require a lot of pre-publishing prep.

This is Christian rock music, at least the tone is

I hope it’ll be helpful and insightful, there’s people with far more informed opinions than me, I just hope I can contribute my little speck of perspective.

Watch this. Watch it very closely. If everyone holds onto that man being kidnapped, if you step into the space of ICE, record these men’s crimes, shout at them—but do not be violent—you may save someone’s life.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

After a federal court blocked Trump from deploying Oregon’s own National Guard, he responded by sending 300 federalized California Guard members to Oregon early Sunday, according to Gov. Gavin Newsom.

Hey @innuendostudios.bsky.social, I don’t wish to bother you, I know you’re busy, but did you ever write a book on your alt-right playbook /video series?
If you did, I want to buy/promote, if not I’d like to gently encourage you to write one. I’m keen for more of your thoughts on it. Thanks!

I have an honours degree in psychological science, I have postgrad work in psych, a professional diploma in counselling, a masters degree in social sciences; my specialty is online therapy/online communication. As a kid I left a cult, lived on the streets at 14, then spent my life helping others:

Here’s a 🧵 of daily thoughts about the link between cult thinking, magical thinking, capitalism, technofeudalists, post-truth, group antisocial psychology, the rise of popular antisocial culture, and hyper individualistic thinking. Fascism, collaborators, hierarchical thinking, inhumane policy. 👇🏼

Brooklyn. Have you seen this lady? Her family fears that she may have been picked up by ICE.

the government gave him so much money because the government is already corrupt. The politicians take money from the people they regulate, they work with the corps to hurt the people that vote them in. A system like that cannot simply “go back”, it has to be rebuilt to prevent this sort of thing.

just world, a society that keeps the rich in check, his type would never flourish. We would have put in safeguards to stop him. I blame him, but I also blame all the ways society failed him. These are not equal, I think he’s a monster. I think you sell your soul to become like him, but

I think about how Musk, never a good guy by any means, but at least used to speak more reasonably about AI and care about it it being safe, has completely demolished whatever humanity he had left using drugs and fascism (power over others). It’s easy to demonise narcissistic people. But in a

It’s often the poor that are the most generous, giving a lot of themselves to help others because they know personally how much we all need others. Money and power allows us to isolate, distance, to not be challenged, to not face our internal world. And there, isolated, we almost seem to brain rot.

Capitalism encourages us to find shortcuts to life in order to bypass the systems that hold people back, but bypassing these systems of prosocial sentiment forces people to be antisocial. For the poor that lands them in jail. For the rich that makes them Technofeudalists, CEOs, investors and polies

There’s a lot of good options out there to manage yourself if WHEN used in addition to the medication and behavioural strategies that are best known to help ADHD. Apps are not an antidote to ADHD, however. 🩷 I am very glad she has something that works. I hope it continues to.

Whenever I feel grief, which is very rare because life is mostly not directly tragic, I crave very VERY scary movies. They make me feel better. Makes me realise anxiety and fear can be an antidote to some states.
