today, I wrote an commissioned poem. Its about colonisation, genocide, IOF baby killers, deaths in custody, white supremacy and other Western Culture fuckery. And I only used the word fuck six times.
The poem includes references to the ridiculous pearl-clutching cancel-culture men who stole my Black&Write Fellowship. Those fuckers stole my award, but not my voice!
Next week, I get to read it live at an event in Adelaide titled Narrative Sabotage. I love being a writer âŁïž

MUTUAL AID - RENT - $0/2500 
hello! my name is rachael. i am a trans woman trapped in a red state. i live with my disabled partner and two dogs. i was fired from my previous job for being trans. since then, i have diligently searched for new employment, but no one local wants to hire a trans person, and remote jobs are increasingly rare.
as i continue my job search, i need to maintain a roof over our heads. we need to continue to survive as i continue my efforts. as such, i am asking for help making rent as well as paying our utilities and other bills. this will allow us to stay safe as i try to navigate the professional world's rampant transphobia.
additionally, i am eager to hear of any job opportunities you may be able to refer me to. i have a decade of experience in software development, with my previous role of six years being a senior fullstack position that included project planning, management, and maintenance, as well as mentorship and client communication. i am open to any position, even entry-level, that is either remote or in seattle or indianapolis. i hope to relocate to seattle as soon as possible, but i will do what i need to survive.
our goal is $2500. i know, thats a lot. thats why im starting this post with three weeks until rent is due. anything you can give would be wildly appreciated and help keep us safe.

Maybe someone can explain to me the very American (US citizens) tendency to create videos where they rant, rage, and cry on social media.
Me joining the legions of puzzled Chinese folks watching this phenomenon on XiaoHongShu as they pour their trauma on the Chinese socials. đż
Ps: yes, I hear it's quite a thing on TikTok. And yes I know some Europeans do it etc. This may surprise you but I have never nor do I ever will, browse TikTok. Not that I can avoid these selfie videos as they are on YouTube too. I just find it odd as I don't think Malaysians do this much and the Chinese? Almost never đ
so Ive been on XiaoHongShu for about 4-5 months now (not a tikitok user, just read about the chinese network and wanted to try it), and Ive seen a lot of americans on there doing various.... things.
Are chinese folks (or anyone, really) confused about why some americans are freaking out? Have you, by chance, read about the actual rising fascism here? The plans to start non defensive wars against china, russia, etc, etc? This is one of the reasons why people are hysterical.
oh you are an ex journalist lol. So you werent really asking why americans are freaking out because you *know* why americans are freaking out.
Do you see the preparations for non defensive war against various countries, designed to keep america on top of the global economies? Do you see the US supported genocide in Palestine? The CIA propaganda offices *all over the world*?
But you see this as some people "whinging"? Wow.

"One way to execute on this would be to laser-focus on just 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 House districts", he wroteTASS
Yes the Florida situation is fucking horrifying but the exact thing I'm struggling with today is how they rolled this out - like it was a funny viral marketing campaign. And not in an inside joke sort of way. They did it in a way that made it seem like everyone is in on it. And you know something? They were kind of right.
MAGA fascists were immediately hashtagging Alligator Alcatraz, and selling hats and tshirts, pulling in Mexican food trucks to eat tacos and elotes in front of the death camp for Latinos, and sharing memes about it with each other.
Like ha ha ha isn't this funny everybody.
These sinister motherfucking sociopaths were all like "ha ha isn't this death camp funny". All together. All of them. Everywhere.
We never deserved America if this is what we are as a people. Burn the whole fucking thing down.

The architects who design these buildings are not thinking in terms of maintenance. One of our roof gardens you had to get everything in the wheelbarrow and take it up in the elevator, and anything you trimmed you had to either throw over the railing down to the trailer without hitting anyone, or you had to take it down in the elevator. Another one had steps, but the treads were all a meter and a half broad, so taking a wheelbarrow up that was impossible. We had to carry it down in tubs. Parking is also always a nightmare at these places, for some reason.
I'm doing other work now, but being a gardener taught me a lot about the more practical aspects of things.
