to put it very simply -- if you are any type of socialist at all you should find the defense of labour rights in the face of generative AI vital and the defense of property rights in the face of generative AI laughable. conflating the two is the indicator of an incoherent politics of Vibes

it's so funny how graffiti is like a non issue that effortlessly reveals peoples' reactionary tendencies.

oh no shit fuck!! some local young punk gave my brick wall character!

large gatherings of humans are necessarily going to be messy, sprawling, and complicated. humans have been covering their worlds in art since literally time immemorial. there's a certain desire to create cities that are pristine and immaculately designed and maintained that I think I'd label fascist, if perhaps unwittingly, for the degree of control over human behavior that it quietly asks for.

i liked the grimes-musk relationship because it unearthed a truth that many are uncomfortable with: lefty tumblr girls who don't read and libertarian reddit guys who also don't read are made for each other

Professionalism is performance art. It’s like security theatre, humility theatre, eagerness theatre, humanitarian theatre etc all wrapped into one.

can i be honest im 100% for the fact that like the tradwife stay at home mom thing is really fucked culturally but also like i think we as a society have to figure this shit out because a child needs the equivalent (if not more) of a full time job's worth of work from an adult who (for the health of the child and for the ethics of the situation honestly) needs to be able to function in a way that isn't making the adult miserable because being raised by miserable adults has really tangible negative impacts on children. whether its community childcare so that simply more adults can be involved in the situation or much more robust social aid towards young families. like this might he stupidly idealistic but i think really the root of a lot of issues in society come from the fact that people refuse to understand the gravity of like. parenthood. its an insane responsibility. i think it should be treated as such

The fight for Palestinian liberation is long and needs patience and strength. I urge you all not to give up on the Palestinian cause no matter how much death you see, no matter how high the numbers get, and no matter how much destruction you witness. We are all doing a great job boosting pro-Palestinian voices and costing Western propagandists money. We're doing an incredible job boycotting all pro-Israeli products, and we're seeing great results. The people are finally seeing the true face of the West and the Israeli occupation, and we're seeing great signs of change. We're on our way to witnessing a free Palestine, and we mustn't lose hope now or ever. Keep posting, keep boosting, and keep saying free Palestine until Palestine is free.

We're nowhere near giving up, and we never will be.
