European opulence is literally scandalous, for it has been founded on slavery, it’s been nourished with the blood of slaves and it comes directly from the soil and from the subsoil of that [colonized] underdeveloped world

—Frantz Fanon

Colonialism only loosens its hold when the knife is at its throat.

[Aashis Joshi @aashisjo]

I call upon Global South scholars & researchers to reconsider our presence in Western academia.

By now it is abundantly clear that Western nations & institutions incl. universities are fully committed to maintaining their colonialist domination over the world, at any cost.

I think NIMBYs in cities like SF and NYC think that there’s an infinite demand for housing in these cities, and so increased supply won’t impact prices. Similar to induced traffic. This is incorrect, especially with today’s economic environment and the white collar recession

the metacrisis (ecological crisis, meaning crisis, health crisis, energy crisis... ) all share the same root. they emerge from a particular way of being — of believing ourselves to be separate

[marisa @marisa_rando]

i fear that many leftists neglect the strong/growing working class consciousness that is so apparent from commentary re: Palestine, the met gala, etc. just bc they're not ... quoting Marx.

even if the 'revolution' doesn't look like what you hoped - it is already happening.

if you havent in a while, i recommend going somewhere nice and sitting with the question, "what do i really want, anyway?"

[Jairo I. Fúnez-Flores @Jairo_I_Funez]

Some “decolonial” panels look exactly like this.

I like the brick as a symbol

You can throw it through a window

You can also build something new with it

Violent construction

[Metalabel Studios @metalabel_]

Today we’re releasing a new model for creative work

Metalabel is a new space where creative people can come together to release, sell, and exhibit creative work in groups we call labels

[Steve Salter @Steve_Salter]

We have to shift the culture of consumption.

In a world driven by relentless need, restraint is a form of resistance.

From brands through to consumers, we need to reposition our relationship with stuff and realise a future that is far more conscious, equitable, and positive.

[Joe Welker @revjoewelker]

@melodaysong Reminds me of a passage in 1 Thess that says "give thanks in all circumstances", which when rephrased as a question can be "How can I say thank you in this circumstance" versus "be thankful"

[mel 🫀☁️ @melodaysong]

lately my internal prompt for "be present" has morphed into "how can i find the pleasure in this moment" and it feels so much less forceful and a lot more enjoyable

[Visa is doing marketing consults (see pinned!) @visakanv]

people who use the phrase "in the real world" are pretty much always talking about their limited concept and experience of reality rather than the actual real world, which is incomprehensibly massive, complex, and full of exceptions to every rule, and markets for everything

[austin thomas robey @austinrobey_]

what if the spirit of occupy wall street and 2021 gamestock could be combined?

I think the future of business may look like grassroots policy campaigns mixed with financial underdog games

troll companies and money swarms w good politics, in support of real productive business

RFH: request for hand holding

sometimes we don't need someone to do something for us, but would love to have someone do things *with us*

would be great to communicate when we are open for being emotionally supportive to the homies

to invite requests even
