My bank just sent me an email asking for donations for a food bank.

I have an idea of who has plenty of money to donate.

One of the best things I ever did for my creative productivity was to realize how much easier it is to edit a rough draft that has been completed than to edit it as I draft it. This goes for most all creative endeavors, not just authoring.

Would you like to give the gift of a totally rad computer pin this holiday season?

You can!

They're $8 each with $5 flat-rate worldwide shipping

DM @mavica to buy them

Get in soon though, last date I can do delivery by Christmas is 2019/12/06

gotta love the nonprofits that are just apparatuses to redistribute money from people who give a shit to politicians who don't

dear nonprofits: "size of pride parade" is an awful metric for the quality of life of lgbtq+ people and you need to stop

I'm circling back to one of my favorite writers, Corey Robin, and his definiton of conservatism: "A meditation on--and theoretical rendition of--the felt experience of having power, seeing it threatened, and trying to win it back."

This is what the poor white person has in common with the billionaire: having power, and seeing it threatened. It's the common thread behind reactionary ideology from bathroom bills to bank deregulation. It's not false consciousness at all. It's a true expression of having held social power and refusing to admit that that power might be illegitimate.
