i wrote this intending multimedia ebook versions and a print version that would serve as a piece of visual art; but mostly, i wrote it with the intention of it being read.

Here is Somnambulist, a lyrical novel. I hope you enjoy. Please share it if you do.

Black women make up 12% of the federal workforce. The largest representation of their labor.

And Trump is firing, firing, firing.

Keith Boykin @keithboykin.bsky.social · 5h

Trump claimed that immigrants were “taking Black jobs,” but even after he deported 350,000 immigrants this year, 300,000 Black women lost their jobs. Black unemployment, overall, has soared to 7.5% under Trump, while white unemployment has dropped to 3.7%.

I’m really glad that Rubio is so young.

It will allow him many years of reflection in a federal prison.

I'm just hoping Trump will live long enough to see his family ruined from inside a prison cell.

ian @imcurl.bsky.social · 1d

it's true. i got asked to leave a meeting at the course because i didn't fit the dress code.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

like forget mental gymnastics. we're talking contortionist levels of flexibility to bend around that cognitive dissonance. or simple lying and self-delusion...

capital punishment is failed policy. it has never deterred crime. it has never secured justice. it has always cost society.

the trend, as seen in my state ( #ncpol ), is a sad and ominous back sliding.

"We won’t give up until the death penalty is abolished everywhere," said Amnesty International on World Day Against the Death Penalty. "Change is possible."

i don't think i'll be the last either.

this could be poe's law at play...

still candace can go kick rocks. until i hear her calling for the release of mumia, the seizing of the factory by the workers, and the liberation of all, i'll approach anything she says that i might agree with with a long side eye.

ian @imcurl.bsky.social · 1d

until you drill down to find their motivation. fucking up and accidentally doing the right thing doesn't make you moral.

ian @imcurl.bsky.social · 1d

shit. had i read down i wouldn't have used the same broke clock idiom.

I think @reesewaters.bsky.social might agree.

ian @imcurl.bsky.social · 1d

not me. sorry. a broke clock is right twice a day. that said, i would welcome her heel turn in life being radicalized as a revolutionary. but there's a way in which she says "isreal" that just sounds... off. she sounds like kirk's texts about being "typical" when he lost a donor over tucker carlson.

U.S. District Judge April Perry said in an oral ruling Thursday deploying soldiers would “only add fuel to the fire that defendants themselves have started.” The ruling came as Illinois’s Democratic Governor JB Pritzker once again accused Trump of overstepping constitutional limits on his authority.

the only positive i can say about him is he's the only president in history to survive the stone cold stunner.
