When antisemites tell you they’re fighting against antisemitism, you should be VERY FUCKING WORRIED.

@StillIRise1963 yes. And it removes the ability to address actual antisemitism

Good friend called to say hi, sounds sick, is sick. Took a Covid test right away, negative, so concludes they have flu

People JUST DON'T KNOW that the (*RAT) testing is not that reliable in early stages

Hate this so much

@inquiline yeah…😞 recommend they do another test 2-days later

Hey vis.social folks!

First of all, you are in good hands! Our moderation team is fantastic!

In terms of leadership, Evan ( @darth_mall ) is returning to help out with Admin duties, and help our moderation team, while I'm offline.

Um, so, I have cancer.

It looks like I should be ok. But it's a scary and risky path forward.

I could also be hit by a bus at any point.

This cancer thing is just pushing me to set up more robust emergency support for this community instance.

I'm learning to tie a bunch of different knots, for a number of reasons, including to give myself another effective ADHD stim, and it's really cool how, just like when learning a programming language or learning yoga poses, this shit rewires your mind

@recursive have you read/heard of Windy Chien’s Year of Knots?

tylerzonia,
@tylerzonia@zirk.us avatar

@recursive I was at a mixed-arts event where a friend of mine was presenting, & she was one of the presenters. She led us through a simple(-ish) knot-form (with the length of rope we arrived to find on our seats). It was fun & I was totally intrigued because I draw a lot of (imaginary) knots but never actually play with them physically

Currently reading Death by Landscape, by Elvia Wilk, and really wishing I knew someone concurrently reading these essays so we can talk about them…

& people, have you read Wilk’s essay, “Future Looks, Staring into the Sun”?

I finally figured out what unsettles me so much about AI generated "art."

It's the complete misapprehension of what creatives actually create.

Art isn't "content" as a commodity to be sold or packed around other products.

Creatives are visionaries.

We don't really buy art, it's more like we pay rent to look at new worlds through their eyes. Whether for wayfinding or escapism, we say: "yes, I'd like to reside in a world like this for a little while."

It isn't a product, its a shared dream.

tylerzonia,
@tylerzonia@zirk.us avatar

@vlrny a dream, or conversation, or contemplation, a look from a different angle, a prompt to feel and think, a query, a reflection…

The Shoah after Gaza

There is too much in this incredible LRB essay and lecture by Pankaj Mishra for me to in any way adequately summarise; please read or listen to it all. He is right; what is happening now is shaking the foundations of the post 1945 moral universe (if there ever really was one). But what will come next? As he says:

“the arc of the moral universe does not bend towards justice”

@pvonhellermannn really powerful, and well-embedded in language, politics, history and the present. Gets at the way the Shoah has been used and abused in profound and far-reaching ways. Necessary reading

could have been my offspring, a nonbinary teen defending their trans best friend—so many of the same interests; I recognized this kid as soon as I saw their picture & read about them. Shakes me to my core.
The only difference between Nex & my kid & their friends is that we live in San Francisco, where the intensive hate-campaigns have been reaching us largely through news & social media, not yet on our doorstep or shaping school policy.
This is not “culture war,” it’s life or death

I'm gonna be honest y'all, it's felt dark lately, and for good reason, LGBTQ+ rights in the balance, an election coming up, women struggling to get basic Healthcare, mass shootings, SCOTUS, the environment. The list goes on and on, and the media twists everything to sound even worse, or just straight up ignores actual news. But here's the thing, I know a lot of you, and the fact that you exist in the world gives me hope. You care about the future and you want good things, and so do I, and as long as that spark is there, we have hope. So, let's focus on some good today! Share a good headline, some positive news either on a larger scale or just something personal, a nice picture you took, a funny meme or video, whatever made you feel good or at least, gave you a smile. Let's share some joy!
