AOC: Whether it’s people in the Epstein files still roaming free, or the president, a known rapist, continuing to occupy the White House, all of this has contributed to the normalization and the idea that incidents of harassment shouldn’t matter. And I think today was an important turning point
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

Thank you Dom! So glad you were there.
Dominic Dean@drdominicdean.bsky.social · 6mo agoGreat to be (virtually) at @pamthur.bsky.social's book launch for Teenage Time: Coming of Age Disruptively in Literature, Culture and Film 1945-2024. It's one of the most important literary and theoretical studies of adolescence for a long time, and Pam's work has been a huge influence on my own.

Mike Hixenbaugh@mikehixenbaugh.com · 7mo agoThe New York Times states it plainly in display type: Videos Contradict Trump Administration Account of ICE Shooting in Minneapolis
Even if having “pronouns in her bio” were a bad thing, the shooter wasn’t looking at her bio, he was looking at her FUCKING FACE. DID SHE HAVE PRONOUNS ON HER FUCKING FACE, YOU NAZI FUCK?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7mo agoJesse Watters highlights that Renee Nicole Good, the woman killed by ICE, had "pronouns in her bio" and "leaves behind a lesbian partner and a child from a previous marriage"
We watched Bowie: The Final Act and honestly all I want is for him to come back on January 10th and tell us all that the last ten years was just some terrifying performance art piece he dreamed up.
What if 2026 turns out to be two 2025s in a trench coat
i think that people really underestimate reality that 1) administration has no doctrine, it is really about a single, mercurial, and half-awake man 2) the administration is a constantly churning system with factions that rise and fall contextually 3) might not have happened if trump tower caracas
Instead of feeling ragey and blasted by everything, just for a moment, I'm giving thanks for how Spinal Tap has shaped my vocabulary and world view.

Terrific essay on close reading away from elite spaces by @johannawinant.bsky.social
Johanna Winant@johannawinant.bsky.social · 8mo agoI wrote an essay for @bostonreview.bsky.social about what I learned about close reading when I taught at West Virginia University www.bostonreview.net/articles/the...
From the archives: 1986 junior semester abroad in London datebook. Saw My Bloody Valentine, The Shop Assistants and Pop Will Eat Itself in Camden, Billy Bragg in Glasgow and in Kilburn in one week. Plus a Highgate cemetery tour and improv Hamlet. You go, younger me!
Cambridge folk, I am giving a talk on Tuesday 18th Nov, 5 pm, at the English Faculty 9 West Road called "Destructive Characters: Graham Greene to the KLF". There will be Walter Benjamin plus film clips! Come along if you are so inclined; I understand there will be wine.
What are they going to do, rename the West Wing "The Wing"? On the plus side, we all have a front row seat for primitive accumulation and destruction in action. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/10...

I enjoyed One Battle After Another but given the choice I would definitely hire the characters in Andor to do my revolution.
I'm praying for a social media that is nothing but pictures of the young Robert Redford from now on. Is that too much to ask?
