Cursed! At Camp Blood 🪓

this couple was at every party i went to in bushwick in 2008

My first & briefest FT job was working in the loan department of a bank. We’d get applications for car loans and I’d end up talking to the sales managers, they would try to keep me on the phone, attempt to flirt, and were very clear they wanted to make the customer sweat. Show them no mercy.

if you need to get out of the heat tomorrow please head into a car dealership. waste their time. go through a bunch of the process without filling out any paperwork. talk through a bunch of options. then just tell them that's an outrageous amount of money and leave. bonus if you do that at tesla.

i’m gonna go be sad about missing people and places

the biggest headline truly is that, I guess, it is for real a war 👍

we won, but we need to win harder (wish I was joking)

How dare you actually want things, part eleventy-thousand.

Everything he mentions is on the menu of a public establishment where they presumably want to sell you them.

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

sorry, y’all, but how is this a shock when Randy Fine exists?

Islamophobia has been a prominent feature amongst politicians my entire life. these are cruel and evil
bigots and yet this country keeps putting them in power. hmm.

it’s sexy to try and it’s cool to care. death to nonchalance

an important reminder that "hacking" rarely involves typing real fast as green text scrolls by and mostly involves asking people for their login info in increasingly sophisticated ways

human psychology is a lot easier to manipulate than code, be very careful with anyone asking for credentials

So, for whatever they're worth, here are my thoughts:

1. DON'T PANIC. DON'T TRY TO MAKE OTHER PEOPLE PANIC BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE DOING SOMETHING

Scaring ppl away from activism & organizing by raising vague concerns about surveillance is not helpful. Take a breath, listen to experts. Don't panic.

The US is at war and repression at home is going to get worse.

I'm old enough to remember during the Iraq war the FBI infiltrating quaker meetings and vegan potlucks and cracking down on anti-war groups and outspoken Muslim leaders.

The US surveillance state has grown exponentially since then.
