NYT 

really did a feature piece titled “How a Campaign Against Transgender Rights Mobilized Conservatives” and failed to mention themselves anywhere in it

📖 

« One of the legacies of the counterculture, particularly on the left, is the idea that expression is action. This idea has haunted those of us on the left for a long time.

But one of the reasons that the Tea Party came to power was that they ⁺organized⁺—they built institutions. So the challenge for those of us who want a different world is not to simply trust that the expressive variety that the internet permits is the key to freedom. Rather, we need to seek a kind of freedom that involves people not like us, that builds institutions that support people not like us—not just ones that help gratify our desires to find new partners or build better micro-worlds.

The New Communalists believed that the micro-world was where politics happened. If we could just build a better micro-world, we could live by example to create a better world for the whole. I think that’s wrong. Our challenge is to build a world that takes responsibility for people not like ourselves. And it’s a challenge we won’t meet by enhancing our expressive abilities, or improving the technologies of expressive connection. »

@aescling some lesbians make more of a mess when they come than other lesbians and hence some lesbians are the primary generators of dirty tissues in their relationships

re: why follow brands 

i guarantee ya you'll find better and more interesting and current news on star wars by just following a dedicated star wars fan than by following the official star wars social media account

doubly true if you replace "fan" with "fansite"
