Seeing the news about the COVID outbreak and how new cases are on the rise (again), I think I might have to make my peace with the idea that I won't get to actually hang out with folks until 2022 or so. :/
Finally finished discarding books; there are a whole lot that were easy to thank and dismiss, a few that were really tough to say goodbye to. But it really helps my sense of perspective to make a hard decision about each book in my collection.

It’s a beautiful day to be Black.

While part of me looks at the BLM mural in front of Trump Tower and thinks YEAH EAT IT TRUMP
Part of me thinks this is politicizing the movement in the wrong way. It's not about saving black lives or advocating systemic changes
It's just trying to piss off a bunch of MAGAs

I really wish we could hold in our hearts that disagreement is a fact of life in any society, and learn how to do it while still holding respect for someone's basic humanity.
Obviously not talking about bigotry, of course. But having perspective would be nice.

I am so tired of seeing that poorly edited white supremacist version of this art spread around again. It's fucking awful seeing that message attached to my character
I would like to see this message get more visibility

GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! Serials will resume this August! I'm taking suggestions for the welcome back serial -- five parts of 2K - 2.5K each, for a total of 10K - 12.5K. What should I write about, friends???

I feel slightly bad about this, but knowing what I know about Russian misinformation campaigns, I'm *immediately* suspicious of anyone with an identifiably Russian email domain -- even at work. I fully expect they're lying and trying to pull a scam.
I didn't think he would DO it, I swear

y'all there's legit a god of male love in Chinese myth, Tu'er Shen (the Rabbit God). he got beat to death for thirsting after a handsome official but the underworld guards were like "u know what? ur crime was one of love, go back up and become a patron deity of men who love men."

it's easy to think of Ayn Rand as a terrible person with an evil philosophy, but if you've ever read her books you'd know she was also a terrible writer.

This narrative that black people who want an accurate reflection of history are "angry and resentful" leaves us with one logical takeaway:
White people don't want to know history because they can't handle the truth.
A thread.
