Hard to believe but I am a 2024 @macfound Fellow! I am accepting the MacArthur Fellowship amidst the genocide happening in Gaza and indiscriminate terroristic attacks in Lebanon by the state of Israel on the 76th year of their occupation of Palestine

A great Irish poet and singer left us today.

She was beautiful, courageous and wore her heart on her sleeve. She was before her time.

Nothing will ever compare to Sinéad O’Connor.

Rest easy Sinéad.

Saman Yasin is a young Kurdish-Iranian rap artist unjustly imprisoned for 7 months for exercising his freedom of expression.

His trial is today.

He is a human being and deserves to be free.

More on #monarchy from #KirstyYoung, end of @BBC #Coronation broadcast: "it is something that floats above" and "doesn't feel that it's grubbing around in the gutter for our votes".

That characterisation of electoral process is always bracing. (Who exactly is in the gutter?)

[Shan_NOS @Mental_Image]

Watching @BBC from afar. #KirstyYoung just said "... the monarchy, obviously, is beyond and above politics. It is not about politics." That’s quite… something. #Coronation

@MrNeuropolitan @BlogOfTheirOwn That’s fun to pronounce.

The destruction of Twitter is an extension of colonialism.

This site was targeted & destroyed b/c it was a gathering place for activists, intellectuals & the marginalized.

It was a tool used in multiple protests & uprisings for a decade…

On Day 50 of the #IranProtests, I continue to stand with the Iranian people in their fight for Iran’s future.

I’ve led a bipartisan effort to protect protestors’ free speech, pressed for the release of political prisoners, and denounced the regime’s human rights violations.

🧵Some personal news: I’m taking a 6-month sabbatical, starting now. These past 3 years have been the most professionally meaningful of my life, but they’ve also deeply broken me. The pandemic isn’t over, but after a long time spent staring into the sun, I need to blink. 1/
