Sending love from afar. We got through it watching the lighter Miyazaki movies.
Oh my godddddd
A sloppelganger of bell hooks?
However much I cursed Grammarly before, consider it quadrupled
lrt: one positive thing about the llm-ification of society imo is extending the ai slop judgment into human work - the way this is highlighting the extent to which life and thought had been already been organised into mechanised/gamified silos, which easily lend themselves to automation/exploitation
The 3 genders
conservative evangelicalism is the direct theological offspring of slaveholder christianity and it contains all of its pathologies, part infinity

McKenzie Wark ~2004
A discussion between myself and McKenzie Wark on raving, hacking, and public luxury. Moderated by Feda Baeza. Pretty sure I gained aura points by just being in the virtual room tbh. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SRC...
goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024

One of the greatest legal minds of the 20th century and a member of the ACLU board of directors starting in 1965, Pauli Murray played a key role in turning our organization’s attention to gender inequality.
