I like that “yap” has entered popular usage again

Currently loving the podcast ‘Dark Woke’ by Janaya Future Khan (one of the founders of BLM TO). They are striving to make sense of this moment & how to survive it with collective purpose / good comms. They are puzzling through it in real time & building each episode - an important thing to witness.

2012 is a perfect movie. Hits different as we move ever closer to climate apocalypse and the US is baldly led by corporate oligarchs.

Ooh yes. Reminding me of @adriennemareebrown.bsky.social ‘s murmurations metaphor re collective movement / small shifts changing our collective course. Also a really good mantra for remembering to rest 🪹

[photo: Six orcas move through calm water. The image is taken just above the surface of the water and the image is slightly overexposed from the sun shining off the water, creating a dreamy glowing effect. Four of the orcas have a small portion of their backs visible above water while the other two only have the fins visible.]

Telling folks to just "plug in to community" rn is well-meaning and if you can do that, wonderful. But most people are not super connected to community for many reasons. So, if you don't have community rn that's ok, consider finding 2-5 ppl you can form a pod with.

This song feels like an anthem right now. Titrating between the dark & the light

Second part of extremely long tweet by Colombian president Gutavo Petro, auto-translated from Spanish. hands of the white libertarians, heirs of Lincoln and of the black and white peasant boys of the USA, before whose graves I cried and prayed on a battlefield, which I reached, after walking the mountains of Italian Tuscany and after being saved from Covid. They are the USA and before them I kneel, before no one else. Overthrow me, President, and the Americas and humanity will respond. Colombia now stops looking north, looks at the world, our blood comes from the blood of the Caliphate of Córdoba, the civilization at that time, of the Roman Latins of the Mediterranean, the civilization of that time, who founded the republic, democracy in Athens; our blood has the black resisters turned into slaves by you. In Colombia is the first free territory of America, before Washington, of all America, there I take refuge in its African songs. My land is of goldsmithing existing in the time of the Egyptian pharaohs, and of the first artists of the world in Chiribiquete. You will never dominate us. The warrior who rode our lands, shouting freedom and who is called Bolívar opposes us. Our people are somewhat fearful, They are somewhat timid, naive and kind, loving, but they will know how to win the Panama Canal, which you took from us with violence. Two hundred heroes from all of Latin America lie in Bocas del Toro, now Panama, formerly Colombia, which you murdered. I raise a flag and as Gaitán said, even if it remains alone, it will continue to be raised with the Latin American dignity that is the dignity of America, which your great-grandfather did not know, and mine did, Mr. President, immigrant in the USA, Your blockade does not scare me; because Colombia, in addition to being the country of beauty, is the heart of the world. I know that you love beauty as I do, do not disrespect it and it will offer you its sweetness. COLOMBIA FROM TODAY IS OPEN TO THE ENTIRE WORLD, WITH OP…

I have become so wary of social media discourse that every time I have a reflection I talk myself out of posting it. This is deeply counter to my nature as that kid that shot their hand up in class bursting with a hot take #nerd

I’m posting this to rip the bandaid off. Hope to get my courage back!
