Master's tools won't bring down the master's house, you know. The right thing to do, the smart thing to do, is so often the harder thing to do. We cannot build power within the system they own, but we can circumvent the system and build power outside of it to bring it down.

The rise of podcasts (and with it the rise of conservative media) is a symptom of our isolation, I think. We need to counter the fucking isolation.

Look for community in 2025. Find your friends & family who will stand with you. In their company, find comfort & support. & when you are ready to create & build, they will be with you. We recommend volunteering at @evlovesnyc.bsky.social & supporting @nyintfc.bsky.social NYC, we will prevail.
