If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.
Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

“One of the chants that has become ubiquitous at these protests at Broadview is, ‘Love your neighbor, love your God, save your soul and quit your job,’” said Black, who pastors at the First Presbyterian Church of Chicago. “Everybody chants that.”

I’m actually being quite serious here. Fascism is about keeping people emotionally dysregulated, especially through the reinforcement of shame, and offering them relief through mass conformity. That’s why fascism is so opposed to empathy, authenticity and queerness

The reason why KPop Demon Hunters is the most important film of 2025 is that it understands fascism to be fundamentally an *emotional*, rather than an intellectual or political, phenomenon. In this essay I shall

They were funny, respected, well-loved activists. They were rightfully scared about what COVID could do to them. They were “the vulnerable”—chronically ill Black women who needed $$ for healthcare costs—the government wanted, and wants, us to find acceptable to abandon. They knew what was happening.
Tweet from Shafiqah Hudson on 10/7/23: People looked at me all kinds of sideways when I suggested that the aggressive rollback of mask mandates, free testing, and other COVID-related services were essentially world governments enacting slow mass slaughter. But they’re fully aware that COVID kills on the comeback.

I remember when Hudson tweeted this. It was one of her last tweets.
Tweet by Shafiqah Hudson on 9/18/2023: “I’m going to say, again, that when long COVID effects kill me—sooner than later—I need y’all to recognize and say LOUDLY what it was.

Long COVID is keeping my blood pressure at 230/128, in spite of taking an elaborate cocktail of meds. Long COVID is shredding my kidneys.”

It especially makes my blood boil when people treat COVID conscious people like they’re over dramatic or oddities to be amused by when I think about Tinu Abayomi-Paul and Shafiqah Hudson.

Saw this #SesameStreet reel on Instagram and felt so seen, it hurt.

"And it only Tuesday."

I wasn't expecting Sesame Street to still be making hella-relatable-to-me content when I was in my 50s, but dang.

An evening making music with my @vixyandtony.bsky.social bandmates @vixyish.bsky.social , @tfabris.bsky.social , and @stealthcello.bsky.social for no other reason than because we love each others' company and love playing together. My heart is comforted and full tonight. 💜💜💜

"That is the central flaw of deservingness politics: the ... moral hierarchies that require the belief that someone is deserving of deportation. That way of thinking keeps the systems that brutalize immigrants in place, with the fight narrowed to carveouts for specific groups of ​'good' immigrants."
One Purple Heart veteran faces deportation. Another has already self-deported while military spouses & parents sit in ICE detention.

Sofya Aptekar writes, focusing outrage only on military deportations misses the bigger fight: dismantling the system.
Don’t Single Out Military Deportations, Dismantle the Deportation Machine
Military veterans and their families should not be deported. But neither should other immigrants. Let’s reject a politics of “deservingness” and protect everyone.

I reiterate that immigrants should NOT go to immigration court. They can comply by setting up a Zoom meeting.

Venus Williams just won her first match in two years and at the end when they were interviewing her about what a miracle it was, she said she had to come back and play a match; they told her she was on cobra and she’s always at the doctor so **she needs the health insurance**
